How very true this is. It truly is an addiction for me> It certainly gets in the way of sleep. I don't have that much else to do and figure it is a fairly healthy and safe addiction to have. Well done. Best wishes in the contest, my friend~Debbie

This is a I'm a Little Teapot writing contest entry rich in Theme and imagery.
It flowed well and read well with no grammar issues as well.
Adjective Content was aligned well with Objective Content and Descriptive Measures aligned perfectly.
Good luck with this.
Dr Ricky 1024.

Hi Dr Ricky, Thank you very much for your review and expert eye in details. I had fun writing this one LOL housework? Cheers Christine

This was so much fun to read and I recognized some of the other entries. I especially enjoyed yours because it is something that I think a great percentage of FanStory can relate to. After all who wants to do housework when there is FanStory. Well done and enjoyable. Thanks Christine.

Lol! That's very cute. It is addictive because we who have this sense of being responsible for the posts to review and to keep up our rank, do feel an urge to keep at it. Glad that you put it well. Had to do housework today - my daughter's moving in!

PS "housework" in the description is missing an 'e' but it's fine in the poem.

Christine,

Nope. Don't get it. Why don't you write poems that people (women especially) can relate to?? I mean, I spend all day here, and if I move the pile of clothes off the computer, shove the three bags of garbage off my office chair and put on a gas mask, I can work fine. Good grief. Don't be so dramatic.

But good luck in the contest, anyway.... --sigh--

Hi Robyn, Yes you would think I would be more considerate wouldn't you, but when one can't see the computer for the clothes or garbage it would be the air I guess. Housework Do people actually do that? LOL ( in realilty I actually hate mess and like everything in it's place but also have an inside Huskie and a husband, so with no one else but me I do it all LOL. And this weekend I had my 4 grandaughters over so there is extra mess., But tomorrow is another day. And as you can see I am here instead. Thanks for creating this challeng it is fun and there are some terrific entries. Cheers Christine.

I am glad you were inspired to create a take-off on "I'm a Little Teapot" especially since I would much rather write poetry and play on FanStory than do housework! And I don't even have any pets to clean up after!! I obviously enjoyed your parallel picture selection plus your rhythm and rhymes. Big cheers and best wishes in the contest- Joan

This is a cute little poem. Short, Sweet, and to the point. I wouldn't want to have to clean that up. I can relate to wanting to get to this site as much as you can. I'm relatively new to it. Still trying to learn my way around. Well done.

Comment from frierajac

I remember this frrom childhood and it kept me company many a lonely day to
be singing and sung to. I love your interpretation. I do believe that the addiction
you refer to is a passing phase.

Hi frierjac, Thanks so much and it is a little catchy tune. Yes I am afraid after 2 years I still do as much haven't written so much as ai have since joining FS. One just need to keep perspective though there is more in life as well .Cheers and glad you liked my poem for this contest Christine
