Let It Go, Keep Moving Forward

Chocolate stains across a clean shirt Sticky stains smeared on pale arms Low thoughts and dry tears fit right into this gray hazy sky. Itching and stinging on legs and arms that no cream has the formula to relieve. Comforter has a roughness that has no explanation. Thoughts irregular and edgy looking for a press, deep sigh. Why oh why have these illusions come to haunt me again. Grumbling and aching are a constant companion. Unorderly placements of things and verse with no comply. Deep sigh, again? Not again! Let it go, keep moving Forward ho.....mush you jello! Bicep reach and contract. Limber junctions lubricate and roll....Worm not today, Blow fly!

and speaking of our plight, to answer your asking me how I am , well, my back is aching. I think I spend too much time here and I better get off really fast! Need my sleep for recovery. yes, I am still teaching and just had shoulder surgery so that's no fun, but I'm surviving. thanks for asking, Doris. How are YOU?
