This month the words/prompts are supplied by River and can be found here

 

LIFTING SPIRITS by Grannie Annie

Ralph opened the box and knew this was CRAZINESS. Who would ever think you could buy a CHARIOT model kit for CONSTRUCTION? He had DEPRESSION and thought this might perk him up. He had worked many model kits as a child and those were always for cars or boats. Now he might be able to FUEL his COMPASSION with a replica of the Ben Hur Chariot.

He went outside his HOUSE and sat by the FOUNTAIN. It SEEMED like a good place to go over the INSTRUCTIONS. Ralph could not believe how easy this assembly appeared to be. He gathered all his fortitude and went back inside. He spent many days alone putting together the unusual model . It was delightful to experience very little OBSTRUCTION. Ralph then invited his family to view the PRESENTATION of his hard work. Their applause lifted his spirits and he immediately went looking for another new model kit.
