trying week
not buying cream cheese for dip
help me Jesus

afternoon break
girl scout cookies delivered
on the hunt for milk

fourth watch
raining patters on the windows
two snooze alarms

whirring machines
quiet day in my head
let the planning begin

clearing my mind
looking toward the future
and where to land

up late at night
trying to destress
lah....de dah

strategy day
can I get to there from here
or do a lateral

waking late
new record for getting to work
with breakfast made

chatting with friends
enjoying my last job
without the rancor

holding three week old
all the crap from the last month
melts in her gurgles

end of hard week
driving to see goddaughter
to hear her laugh

half of SFH
forcing myself to be outgoing
with the mahufs

tonight's fun-
laundry, scrubbing the counters
cleaning the fridge out

afternoon plans
reaquainting myself
with the couch

weekend drive
500 miles in two days
the couch is calling

weekend plans-
meeting with fellow word smiths
and vigorous dancing
