Grandma G

Time to tie up loose ends from
knee replacement surgery last week.
An alien boy must outrun some other aliens trying to kill him,
and i blogstalked and tweeted while he worked.
a trainwreck worth watching for sure.
Whenever a piece of lunchtime popcorn misses our mouth,
That is my sweat and blood friends...
may your employer get boils.

James does not sleep through the night

Where did the time go?

it is supposed to be enjoyin yet resfreshing
we spent Christmas in Blanding
decorating cookies, sledding, watching christmas movies
having crazy chubby legs
splashing and kicking
and stayed up til 3 am listening to it

Whatever it is, I know Estella tried and I am glad by her effort.

back again

I'm returning from a long hiatus, which had been prompted by Blogger's new insistence on grouping "Next Blogs" by category, meaning each click is designed to send you to somewhere similar to where you've just been. Kind of takes the fun out of the button, and this project, but I'm going to try and make it work for me, for a while longer at least. Thanks for checking back.

jump speed bumps

Nana came along last night to help me keep my sanity.
We picked out a book about emergency vehicles,
and how we're all being poisoned and blah, blah, blah but
since I don't coupon very well,
it felt very good to make it to Knitting group today
cause we're toeing that line twixt fascination and OCD.

If you free, try this!

when I announced I was leaving
abandoning you
its so difficult to know otherwise
when you just click 'Married' on your Facebook status

Obviously that didn't quite do the trick
assistance with shelter, medicine and basic needs
Later we quit our jobs together

Yesterday is the day
in the countryside, which I truly adored
wake up to the sound of the temple bells
I never would have expected that


*I wrote this one without moving any lines around... truly 'Next Blog' ordered. Except for the title, which I found somewhere in the middle.

to apply

Wrapped up in a big box
everyone is having a great week so far
mythical creatures and beings from thin air
doing their thing, in front of 1200 people
I always feel SO out of place
but we had fun

a whole lot of birthday cake

That awkward standing around,
the excuse that I cannot find the time,
I came here to say
all you need

I read a recent science report that said that
after a sleep of twenty years the old craft awakes
to see what they had in there had never been opened
