Hi there, and welcome to your daily Just Jot It January prompt. Linda here, coming off yet another freezing-rain day with no school for the young ‘un. If there’s no rest for the wicked, I must be a bad, bad, girl. I’m positive tomorrow’s going to be a regular school day. Positive! If not, I’m sure you’ll hear about it.
Anyway, without further ado, here’s your prompt for today:
The Just Jot It January 19th prompt, brought to you by Wendy of Wendy’s Waffle, is: “Rubbish.” Use it any way you’re inspired to. And make sure you stop by and say hi to Wendy as well! Here’s her blog: https://waffle-with-wendy.blogspot.ca/
The rules for Just Jot It January are as follows:
1. It’s never too late to join in! Here, we run on the honour system; the “jot it” part of JusJoJan means that anything you jot down, anywhere (it doesn’t have to be a post, it can even be a grocery list) counts as a “Jot.” If it makes it to your blog that day, great! If it waits a week to get from a sticky note to your screen, no problem!
2. The prompts will be posted every day at 2am my time (GMT -5). You don’t have to follow the prompt word, but this will be where you leave your link for others to see. Make sure you link your post to the correct day’s prompt. There will be a post like this every day except Wednesday, when the prompt is simply my One-Liner Wednesday, and Saturday, when you’ll find the prompt on my usual Friday Reminder post for Stream of Consciousness Saturday (SoCS).
3. As long as your blog is on WordPress, you’ll be able to link via pingback. To execute a pingback, just copy the URL from the daily prompt post, and paste it anywhere in your post. Check to make sure your link shows up where you want it to, and go back occasionally to see other bloggers’ entries – the more you visit others, the more they’ll visit you! If you’re participating from another blogging host, just drop a link into the comment section. Note: The newest pingbacks and comments will be at the top.
4. Tag your post JusJoJan and/or #JusJoJan.
5. Write anything! Any length will do! It can even be a photo or a drawing – you’re going to title it, right? There’s your jot!
6. The prompts are here both to remind you and to inspire you to write. However, you don’t have to use the prompt word of the day. You can link any kind of jot back here. Even your shopping list. Note: If it’s 18+ content, please say so in a comment with your link.
7. If you’d like to, use the JusJoJan badge (above) in your post so that others can find your post more easily.
8. Have fun!

I actually wrote the story at about 3am, before I went to bed, so I’m nice and early today, bearing more fan fiction! =)

I know! You could have school at your house. Invite your neighbors! If that sounds like hell, never mind. Maybe today is lovely in comparison. I hope tomorrow is beautiful.

Ha! That wouldn’t do me any good for the simple fact that the neighbourhood kids don’t know sign language. I’d still have to deal with Alex on my own. 😛
Good news is, the buses are running today. Yippie! 😀

I suggest finding someone to learn it with – it’s easier to forget than it is to learn. 😛
