One-Minute Writer - Green

Today's One-Minute Writing Prompt: Green

What makes you green with envy?


I know envy is a sin, but I can't help being envious of homeowners who can afford to keep their homes maintained.

Currently, we are just barely keeping our heads above water and paying the mortage - there is no money left over to make roof repairs, siding repairs, gable repairs, painting, etc., etc., etc........

I know my home is my castle, but my castle is falling down around me and I'm penniless to stop it.

If only I could get paid for more of the writing I do ... that's something else I'm envious of - regularly paid authors. I will be one of those, I just don't know when. So, I'll keep writing - and keep pinching pennies ...
