Monday - Morning Sickness

My feet, they hurt
      My nerves are shot
          First I'm cold
               Then I'm hot
                   My head, it aches
                        It throbs my eyes
                             Oh how I wish
                                   That I would die!
                                       My arm is bruised
                                           My leg, it hurts
                                                  I think I should
                                                     Refrain from work
                                                           I wish these pains 
                                                                 Would go away 
                                                                     Oh! - I forgot

                                                   It's  SATURDAY

Ha, don't you just hate when that happens, you practice the excuse until it's perfect and then realize it's not a work day. This was fun Gayle.
