Wouldn’t you like to expose your newer readers to some of you earlier posts that they might never have seen? Or remind your long term followers of posts that they might not remember?
Each Friday I will publish a post I wrote on this exact date in a previous year.
How about you? Why don’t you reach back into your own archives and highlight a post that you wrote on this very date in a previous year? You can repost your Friday Flashback post on your blog and pingback to this post. Or you can just write a comment below with a link to the post you selected.
If you’ve been blogging for less than a year, go ahead and choose a post that you previously published on this day (the 29th) of any month within the past year and link to that post in a comment.
This was originally posted on November 29, 2017. It was in response to one of Bikurgurl’s 100 Word Wednesday prompts.
Duck Face
Looking at the map, David was trying to figure out how to get to the museum. “I think it’s just a few blocks from here,” he said to his wife. Not hearing a response, he turned around and saw that she was taking yet another selfie, with that ridiculous duck face expression.
“How many of those stupid, pouty selfies are you going to take on this trip?” David asked her.
“I want all of my Facebook friends to see how much fun we’re having,” she said.
David sighed. “Then you should try aiming the camera at something other than yourself.”

How often I have felt exactly like that.

Good one! A fine reminder of our need to look beyond our personal vanities.
I’m bending your time rules with this one, but it’s still quite timely. My family and I are going to see the Tom Hanks movie today. Mr. Rogers remains dear to my heart.

“I’m bending your time rules with this one….” No worries. Blogging “rules” are best when bent. Thanks for sharing your Mr. Rogers post.

David should have left his wife at home if he wanted to have fun.

That’s a good one and so true. I have no idea what I posted a year ago – I’ll look/see. Great idea.
