Good morning to all of my cyber fans out there! I hope that you had a wonderful mid-week Wednesday. I sure did… It’s very early on Thursday morning and I am headed to the airport as soon as I finish this blog. I will be flying off to Houston, TX this weekend working with several wonderful people on managing their pain with the laser; not to mention maybe getting a little more sun and warmth than what is here in South Dakota. Yeah for me!!!
So, I better get going with the word of the day so that I can make it to my airplane on time. Today’s word comes to us from Jonine Payne in the beautiful island state of Hawaii. I am so jealous of you right now, Jonine. I wish I were there soaking up the rays. Anyhow, back to business. Jonine has chosen the word photosynthesis.
Our definition comes to us from our online source at www.thefreedictionary.com
pho·to·syn·the·sis (ft-snth-ss)
n.
The process in green plants and certain other organisms by which carbohydrates are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water using light as an energy source. Most forms of photosynthesis release oxygen as a byproduct.
Well, I am sure that you are all remembering back to junior high science class and thinking to yourselves, okay, I get it. Or maybe it’s just me. I love it when I get a word that takes me back in time… Anyhow, thank you Jonine for the submission and I would love to have another so don’t forget to submit again.
As for the rest of you out in cyber space who have not made a submission, you should do so now. It only takes a second to come up with a great word and be entered into the drawing for the e-book in September. You have to play if you want to win.
Good luck to those of you who have already entered and make sure to enter again and double your chances. That is all I have for now, so until next time, remember to Read On!!!
