Your post was an honestly good freewrite. We all have words and phrases that will immediately conjure up a story in our minds. And we all have times where the prompt leaves us floundering.

The prompt would be "mirror" (or such) and my freewrite will look like: wash curtains, clean windows, vacuum, do laundry, dust mirror, wash fish tank filters, lightbulbs, dog food,....
