Thursday Journal with Neet

The words this week are 'I'm still kind of a mess, but I guess we all are'  Freda and Sophie are in Sophie's lounge that she had  painted one wall in jungle colours. It's a bit busy for Freda but she admired it anyway. Sophie had spent a long time on her university thesis and this included a study of wild animals. She was passionate about the problem of poachers, especially of elephants. They were such beautiful intelligent animals and she couldn't understand who could possibly hurt them especially for trophies and monetary gain. 
Freda had decided to stand right next to the large elephant cut out and it did look as if it was actually touching her hair. " I know you love all the wild animals Sophie. but these are rather large, they take over the whole wall, and I don't think deer live in the jungle" said Freda. " It doesn't matter where they live, the important thing is to make people aware of the problem of all our disappearing species, can you imagine a world where there aren't any more elephants or tigers, to name but a few" replied Sophie. "Well no I can't, but surely it can't be that bad" said Freda. "Well I think it is and I will try to do something about it, even though I know it won't be any use, it needs more world leaders to do more. I'm still kind of a mess, but I guess we all are" Sophie replied.

Not only do you have a great wild page today Wendy, but you have a super point to make with your story too. Animal poaching is so sad and useless. I like your page, and it's perfect for Jo's challenge. Thanks for joining us Wendy, and have a super rest of your week. hugs-Erika

What a fab page Wendy. I see you used the elephant which I think I use next week (already done and with me at the caravan). (Not done as 'ready' but stamped and awaiting cutting out and putting in a page). It's been easier than I first thought to do the link between us and AJJ this month. Good job as it's a five week month.
Hugs, Neet xx
