LOL atta girl. I agree :). Good one 🙂
Thom — gotta love feisty old people — I plan to be one!
You and me both LOL
Terrific! I like it! I like it!
Kay — I would have been surprised if you felt differently! You wander everywhere and take your momma, too! 😉
Yes, she looks like she can take care of herself.
Erik — her kids should have remembered that!
I hope she makes it.
Tony — so do I!
LOL … so funny, I loved it!!!
Deborah — I am happiest when I make people laugh.
You go girl! Nasty relations, sticking her in a home. LOL. Loved it.
Have a great week x
Ellie — she’s too young and has too much energy to be that restricted just yet!
That’s a scary thought.
Barbara — which? That her kids want to ship her off or that she isn’t going?
Run Milicent, run!!! :O)
Diane — that seems to be a favored response.
O.K. that’s what I like to see – lots of spunk. Nice take on the prompt.
HERE IS MINE
PG
One Prayer Girl — I plan to be a spunky old lady myself.
Run Millicent, run! LOL
Akelamalu — that’ is become the chant for this post!
She’s gonna hijack the train, isn’t she?
Dude. Don’t give her any ideas!
Doug — I don’t think that will help her stay under the radar and keep from being locked up, but one can never quite predict what Millicent will do. I’m with Karen, don’t give Milli any ideas.
Good for Millicent, no one will think of looking on a train for her,
Bill — that’s what she thinks, too!
Run, Millicent, run! Love it, Quilly. 🙂

Please?

Quilly;
Run Millie run, as fast as you can.
Love that twist at the end that left me LOL!
have a good week my friend.
Peggy — I am glad you enjoyed the story and raised your voice to chant Milli on!
Jim — I wasn’t aware that I haven’t been visiting and commenting on the memes we share. Is my feed reader skipping you for some reason? I will check.
AMEN to that!!! I’ll pack and go with her! Millie and Melli… on the run!
Melli — I bet I could write a story ….
How about: Milli & Melli Take Manhattan?
Oh, yes! I’m all for that! You go, girl! What a great one for the day, Quilly!! Hope you have a great week!
Sylvia
Sylvia — I hope you have a grand week, too. We are supposed to have wonderful weather!
Hilarious! Wait a second… is that Grandma? We’ve been looking for her!
Lizzi — when you find Grandam, I hope you note she’s too young for a home!
You think up the best mini-stories!
Linda — I try. Sometimes it is harder than others.
Oooh that is wonderful! Go Millicent! LOL
Great MM, I loved it. 🙂
Susannah — thanks! Millicent appreciates your support. 😉
Go Millie! Go! I hope you find your happiness wherever this trip leads!
Polly — Milli appreciates the cheering section!
This one put a smile on my face. 😀
Karen — then my work here is done.
Awh BLESS! This made me smile. I hope she finds happiness! :O)
Madeleine — I almost gave her your name! That really would have made you smile!
Very nice. Deliquency among pensioners is to be encouraged.
Dave — yes, especially since I am not far from that age!
Ha! Good for Millicent! With an action plan like that, she’s obviously in full command of her faculties. Send her away? What are they thinking?! LOL
Lisa — I think they are after her house & her money!
Hi Quilly,
Probably an in-law that wants to ship her away to a nursing home! Ha! Good luck finding this one!
~Jean
Jean — that might very well be the case!
YOU GO, MILLICENT!!
Quilly, I think you’ve got the best one this week. I loooooove this lady!
Thanks, susan — I like Milli, too!
my, this is scary! only yesterday i found out one of my old professors had been missing, and millicent looks disconcertingly like her
Polona — and now you know why she’s missing1 😉 (I hope you aren’t serious!)
Quilly–
This is a dynamite piece. I hope Millicent eludes them for a very long time…
Sioux — the great thing about fiction is, she can!
Perfect!
Thanks, Susan.
