labor. I've been in labor five times. I do not usually care to talk about my kids so I'll keep laboring on until I figure out another topic of labor. The Department of Labor. Labor is part of labordor. I think i spelled that wrong. Labor is something worthy sweating about.

Has anyone noticed that either I'm typing faster or the ideas are pouring out of my brain with greater expediency? More words per minute!

Just as an aside... I've found something interesting about Google. If you type a misspelled word into the search box and press Enter, it'll often (but not always) come back and say "Did you mean: (correct spelling)?" I wasn't sure how to spell the country either, so I typed in Labordor. Sure enough, it asked me if I meant Labrador. :)

I've not used google when doing my one-minute freewrites; you sound speedy. Oh. You mean that you do that at other times. Okay. :-)

Five times?

Three more and you can have your own reality tv show

Oh, shush. That's a loaded response. You're lucky it didn't backfire.

You've been in labor five times ... that's a lot of hard work by anyone's definition!

It's thundering right now ... I wonder if there's a connection ...

Yep, five times. I have four kids (20, 17, 13, 10) and I share the fifth one with her parents who adopted her; she's 25. :-)

I've labored all my life but never been "in" labor, like loving but never "in" love. Thank goodness, I experienced the latter. "Labor" is another one of those hard, cold, heavy words I try to avoid.

Honestly, I like to labor. I like to work.

Labor...a favorite word from a former cult church I once knew. "You must labor to enter into your rest"... trouble was that it was all labor and no rest. Oh heck, bad memory. That word just set me off.
