Today Is Out Of Order

Today is out of order. 
I just want to flee,
everything is biting me like a big yellow bee.
The day started off with mold on my brie,
then I lost my only house key.
Under the bed looking for my shoe on one knee,
my pants went wet with pee.
Please just set me free,
this is my one and only plea.

Great monorhyme, Paula. Cute, it applies well to all of us who have retired from a hard days' work to more work. I spent part of two days looking for my property tax bill. When I called to get a duplicate, the lady reminded me, "We don't send those out until April." Well Duh!

Yup, some days are like that! My BFF has her hubby in hospital and locked herself out of house and car…of course phone was in the car. The bite of a big yellow bee seems to indicate just a load of annoying small problems. They all add up. When life is like this I laugh because it is so absurd. Hugs!
