A mix tape of emotions

Monday was worthless. I did not get anything accomplished....and I might be exaggerating a little. Here is what I did get done: sleeping, feeling miserable, lost the boys' new turtle. Monday's are a tough enough way to spend 1/7th of your life, let alone one like this. It was one of those days where I shouldn't have gotten out of bed. We've all had days like that and yesterday was one of mine. Moral of the story: I have TONS to do today: before the rain, before my dr. appt. tomorrow, etc.

After Scott got home from work last night, it was a pretty lazy evening. I started to feel a little better and ventured to the store to get frozen pizza for dinner. I talked with Scott's mom a little on how her 1st round of chemo went. It took longer than the expected 4.5 hours, but she was feeling okay. She visits with a doctor Thursday and has a PET scan Monday. After a quiet evening of lounging in front of the t.v. watching movies like Leatherheads and The Animal it was time for bed.

Note: last night before hitting the pillow I had stepped outside to retrieve Scott's lunchbox out of his truck and had a creative moment, this is what yielded from that.....

Summer-

Still trees,
Starry sky,
Warm air,
I wonder why

Crickets chirping,
Street lights on,
Flowers blooming,
It will soon be gone

Grills sizzling,
love growing,
bees buzzing,
skin showing

Children laughing,
out at play,
If only this could be
every day...

Over soon,
it will be,
Enjoy it now,
for you will see

Okay, that poem sucked, compared to the caliber of poetry I used to right. Give me a break it's been years since I've written a poem...IDK if any more inspiration will encourage me to write more poetry now, but you never know....
