I fell in love with LIE and LAY and in a while they both became mine!
TO LIE _LAY_LAIN (to recline)
TO LAY _LAID _LAID (to place)
My Dear EC friends, I want to introduce you with a rather pleasant and useful story, my request is the following , please read it carefully and before making any conclusions , read it one more time!
This morning I lay in my ‘’swanlike’’ bed so long I was late for my lessons ..I laid my clothes out the night before so I thought I would be able to sleep a bit longer. I was lying there in my warm and silky bed thinking about my star (who brought light into my life , that’s why I’m calling him my shining star), and I imagined how he came up to me and laid his hands in mine and asked ‘’Did you lay my clothes away?’’ and I answered ‘’ Hey, yeah! I have laid all your woolen away , you will not need them again this year any more…’’
(Do you think I’ve gone crazy or insane or anything like that? Huh?, wait , wait ! of course NO! Wait and keep on reading , then you will see ! I’m still sane , heheheh!grinning with a seducing smile)
What’s more. I rarely lie down for a nap in the afternoon , but this time after having laid the child on her bed I fell asleep and I had laid all my fears away to rest and had lain asleep all afternoon.My shining came in again and found me still lying on the wodden-carved bed with coral-pink curtains drawn down . And for sure he thought ‘’ Oh Alah! What a lazy woman she is!That’s it’’
Hey read all these lines once again now paying more attention to the words LIE and LAY . I have been acquainted with them long ago but I have recently made friends with both of these guys.I have created an incredible or unbelievable story because I wanted to compel you feel the need of their use .I have made friends with these quite troublesome words LIE and LAY , or quite naughty guys. There is a proverb which says that If you can’t defeat your enemy , then make friends with him/her. These Lie and Lay guys are confusing me every time I come across with them ( I know they are making troubles not only for me ) I get bewildered and even misspell them. That’s why I made up my mind to get in good terms with them, in order to make them mine forever.As I have written in my previous blog, treat the new troublesome words like you might treat the new naughty guys, and after having mastered them all they will never trap you again.
PS my special thanks to my shining star who inspired me , though from a far distance, while I was reading a book about these guys, oops I mean these words!

dear Nida i am in good terms with this word (verb) TO LIE but not using it in its real meaning in life, hehe i mean i rarely tell a lie....BTW now you can do whatever u intended with your comments...
Rysz, the great macho! i never tell a lie, and i havent ever lied to anyone, but of course all this story was the product of my vivid imagination, thats it!..lol
Hesham , my dearest, Lay is the past form of the verb Lie which means to recline , have a rest, but to lay means to place, to put something somewhere, actually both the same in forms , be more careful.....
Ohnie , my dear I can lend you them for a while , i know you're a good girl to make friends with ..hehe after that kind of relationship these LIA and LAY will not bother you any more....:)
I really enjoyed reading this blog.

Oh my.............. looks like all blogs are moderated today!
I make a lot of mistakes when I first write a comment. My problem is that I can find mistakes only after I post it. Then I delete that and write a new one. But I can't do that if a blog is moderated.
Very useful indeed! Thank you, Bia!
Btw, there is a 3rd "LIE", too. I hope that you're already getting along with it very well!
