Blah
Up too early
No napping
Showered
No time for make up
No time for drying hair
Laughed taking my boys to school
Together laughs
Taking turns being funny laughs
The drive was too short this morning
I wanted to keep ‘em with me
Laughing
A bit longer
Now the car is silent
Missing them
And feeling blah
Blah
Blah
Blah
Will try to snap out of it
Soon
Until then
One more
Blah
No one is perfect
but in our imperfections
lies our uniqueness
Life is like a road
even when you see the signs
you still can get lost
dog’s been out
coffee’s on
still full dark out
barely five a.m.
the day has begun
must be Monday
or any other day
at my house
now for a smidge
of quiet time
before the rest
of my family
awakes
the chimes chime
the clock ticks
and my keys tap
good morning
it’s been a week now
for this rose bouquet
the blooms are fading
but not our love
which deepens
growing stronger
every day
as morning comes
snow
My blissful blue sky day took a turn for the gray and gloomy.
At lunchtime my husband told me there us an inch of snow in the forecast.
Mid morning it was in the 40’s and I was so warm while walking the dog in the sunshine I took my coat off.
Crazy Illinois weather.
My daffodils, the ones planted in a protected spot, are coming up.
I so hope they don’t get nipped by frost, ice or snow in the months ahead.
P.S. Yes, the water tower reads, “Town of Normal”.
P.S.S. I didn’t let the grayscale sky color get me down because I savored the blue while it was brightest and lifted my face to the sun while it shone.
How I love blue sky days.
*happy sigh*
I got my wish
for sunshine
and blue skies
so I’m sitting outside
on the patio
while the dog
lies in the grass
chewing on a stick
as for me
I’m soaking up sunshine
on this January morning
feeling thankful
and warmer
from the glorious sun
