The bright sun chasing night awakes me with delight Arising from my sleepy state is a terrible plight Dragging forth to brush my tangled pressed down gray hair Eyes barely open, stumble forth needing java juice and air Turned on the computer to check emails and such Drinking decaf coffee and answering emails but no rush Breakfast soon was eaten devotion time swiftly spent A few chores to straighten the house and even make a small dent Bath time my daily spa, let the warmth penetrate Dressed, ready to go ~let me face the day and not be late A few errands need to be handled while in town Lunch with my husband gives no reason to cause a frown Grocery shopping to stock up on cleaning supplies and food A task not really enjoyed but I let some joy exude Afterwards I needed some rest and quiet time Watching a movie that was not the best which was a crime Facing the inevitable soon came to our life Putting Cody on the Greyhound cut me like a sharp knife Bedtime very late exhausted from the busy day Tomorrow will be another list hopes of time to play Finis
