yesterday's mail
after two years of searching
rennie mackintosh ring

at bible study
a time to just get silly
with other ladies

needing more sleep
trying to figure out
why I'm forehausted

snowy morning
chatting with sister about
going to work

Monday, Monday
enjoying favorite movie
before the commute

weekend evening
laundry and a good book
are all I want

this evening's chores-
month of journal catchup
and paying bills

morning chore
taking my nephew to work
and not minding

family gone home
my kitchen and bathroom
back in order

long family weekend
hostess to lthe oved ones
is a ton of work

family visit
chatting all night with sister
and eating dip

chilly willy night
hot cocoa and blankets
in front of TV

day four of diet-
flavored water for lunch
instead of pizza

no sleep kind of night
trying to break writer's block
and weekend plans

cold winter night
wishing for a gust of air
to quench this flash

morning chores
cleaning off kitchen table
blasitng through junk mail

waking rested
clearing one house area
planning for the next

during the night
watching the moon travel

talking with sister-
enjoying shared holidays
one more time

yesterday morning
coming down the stairs
to nonbreathing cat

first weekend of year
cleaning out the old trash
to diffuse the calm

new year's day plus one
expanding resoultions
to clean the basement
