The clock strikes at 12 AM, Eudora though she should really come down out of the tree. She hadn’t meant to stay up there this long, too hard to see in the dark of midnight. She wished she had worn sneakers instead of her Ivanka Trump Hettie sandals. The heel on those things, the fringed tassels; they were not meant for climbing trees, navigating treacherous limbs, straddling those twinkling strands of tree lights. A tree hugger, Eudora’s own personal madness reigning supreme, attempting to outrun that striking clock.
This is a writing prompt from the Miracle Girl Blog: https://miraclegirlblog.wordpress.com/2016/06/28/miraclechallenge-week-3-dated-28th-june-2016/

Hey! Welcome to Week -3😃
I missed you last week 😔
Am glad this week’s prompt inspired you😊
Ah ! This is perfect five sentences. I adore your short tale. Thank you for giving us an intriguing and terrific story to read using the image prompt.
And, it seems your video is not available or in my country.
And thank you very much for inspiring others to participate in #MiracleChallenge 😊😊😊
You are welcome 🙂
Glad you liked it, you are very welcome. I’ve been dealing with an injury which is why you didn’t hear from me :(. Sorry about the video, I remember now that it is different for some countries.
Omg. What happened?? Are you alright now?? Please, Take care.
Ah, yes. That’s Okay about the video.
I sprained a muscle in my back by moving something that was too heavy. I should have been more careful. I learned a lesson from that. I am better now, hopefully will continue so. Thanks so much for asking. I hope you have a fantastic week!
Oh ! Okay. Yes, it’s good that there was nothing serious. Sumtyms it causes difficult times.
God bless you 😊
Am having gud day. Hope you enjoying your day.
Take care !
What a fun little story – a mixture of fairy tale, adventure, and Trump fashion!
Well thank you so much, Diana. You know Ivanka has been in hot water over those shoes, and is being sued by another shoe company, so that has stuck in my mind this week and then it came out in that little story.
I didn’t know about the details. The Trumps (sigh). Makes the story even more funny.
Those Trumps, ha ha, but I have to admit, she’s got style 🙂
you had me at the Kiss vid
That’s a good video for sure!

Enjoyed this little story, good fun and never a good idea to go tree climbing in heels!
Annika, you are so right, those heels could be one’s undoing, ha ha. Glad you liked it 🙂
Cool story — but I spent a LOT of time in trees when I was a kid, and no way would I have tried climbing one in fancy shoes, ha!!
That’s right Debbie, I was a tomboy for sure. The protagonist in this story has some issues, not only is she wearing Ivanka’s hot topic shoes, but she is in a tree at midnight :). This was a writing prompt from Miracle Girl so I used it to go out on a limb, so to speak :))
Well done! I overlooked the midnight part — she might have had some company from bats then!
She may have indeed, ha ha. Midnight is surely not a good time for tree climbing :))
