Learning new words is proficuous, so I was happy to receive this email yesterday:
I believe that almost everything we encounter in this life is proficuous in some way.
Are my images for today proficuous?
As usual, the Daily Bitch is proficuous.
I want to wish my old friend Joe (who thinks this blog is proficuous enough to read it) a very Happy National Joe Day!
Here’s what I find when I search for “proficuous” on YouTube:
I also think it would be proficuous to share this on World Theatre Day:
I look forward to your proficuous comments below.
Gratitude is always proficuous, so thanks to all my awesome readers, including YOU!
The Year(s) of Living Non-Judgmentally 
natural happiness day, cheers
Thanks for all your proficuous comments, my friend!
welcome Annie, the truth is, when you know that the Almighty exists, it’s a case of preparation, stay blessed, amen
My friend John invented a word-forward game that’s available online, Ann. I wrote about it on my blog. Cattywampus Edition by knowledgystuff.com would make you, Michael and Aaron happy, I do believe, with its collection of interesting words.
Thanks for your always proficuous thoughts, Mark, and I will check that out!
‘go’ day.
Let’s go!
Proficuous – an entirely new word for me, which is odd because most words, even if I don’t know what they mean, look vaguely familiar. The pronunciation is also weird – c comes off as ch? Pro-FICH-uous. And other than take your lead on considering everything around me to be of worth in some way, I can’t think of any use in which it would be the *just right* word for me. That is, I think it would have to involve “profit” as well as “worth”?
According to the definition, it involves profit OR worth, and according to spell check, “proficuous” isn’t a word, for whatever that’s worth. Thanks for your always proficuous comments, Barbara.
Ah, the pesky little “or”. 🙂
Joan: “I can nap while perched precariously on top of curved furniture, or while curled up in a soft comfy bed.”
Joan does what she wants!
Yet another word I learned, your blog is definitely very proficuous for me!
You, Dr. Del Castillo, are a particularly proficuous person!
I love paella, but the only Spanish restaurant here closed only a few months after it opened. It wasn’t proficuous.
Paella is very proficuous and I hope there’s more of that in your future, my friend.
Now that’s a wonderful new word I will likely trot out from time to time! I think all of your photos were proficuous, Ann. 🙂
Thank you, my kind, supportive, and proficuous friend !
It’s Proficuous
To walk
on Leash
and Taut
and Where
or What
A Beam of Light
A Cat
To Lead this Way
A Gilded Path
Around a fence
and Back
Content and Purred
Amnesiac
To Come Aboard
At Last
Thanks for your wonderfully proficuous poem, Maria!
