Hello, it’s Saturday! Time to enjoy the leisurely pace of the weekend. Were you up early, or are you enjoying a bit of a sleep-in? Either way, the SDC team and I (Vella) are glad to be here with you. Now, let’s reveal the answer to yesterday’s riddle!
A cloud is my mother, the wind is my father, my son is the cool stream, and my daughter is the fruit of the land. A rainbow is my bed, the earth my final resting place, and I am the torment of man. Who Am I?
And the answer is rain! Kudos to everyone who got it correct! Keep your eyes peeled towards the end of this newsletter; we have a special shout-out for you.
Onto our next segment, 'What Would the Grandkids Say?’ So, you're familiar with LOL (Laughing Out Loud) and ROFL (Rolling On The Floor Laughing), right? Hold onto your hats because kids today have replaced them with a more complicated term: IJBOL (I Just Burst Out Laughing), a term used when someone explodes into a guffaw!
Oh, and before we get into the news, a huge thank you to our newest SDC Rewards members: ShuiNaga, DebNel2106 & Jron! You, folks, can now enter our image quiz brainstorm
