Barking

Yes, excited dogs!

We are going for a walk...

if I don't go deaf.

Ideas

had great ideas
but I did not write them down
now they are gone.  Poof!

Dewy Morning

dew drops in the sun
shimmering on blades of grass
Glitter for my lawn!!

Zits....

Stupid painful zit
deep down below the surface
I cannot pop you.

Summer Morning Ride

Pedaling slowly,

savoring the sights and smells

of early summer

inspired by my corneal ulcer - LOL!

do NOT google it
no matter how curious
it's gross.  you've been warned.

Love comes in many forms...

Too warm to cuddle
But you look so contented
Sometimes sweat is love.  

Almost a year after life got too crazy for me to think in haiku - I have one for you!

Paw prints on my sheets
You look so very cozy
Sleeping muddy dog.

my daughter wore jeans today
yay for OT!

my kitchen was clean

for a few moments today

then the kids came home

(Note, this is written from Comet's perspective, not mine.)

treasure in the grass

flying from feeder to nest

babies need to eat

Saturday:

the question I ask myself

Catching Up....

Tuesday:

my big maple tree has scale
free dinner for all!

Wednesday:
fifth grade band concert
my short son played bells in back
i could still hear him!

Today:
life has been busy
i'm behind in my haiku
i have lots to write!

I could see the top of his head during the concert...it looks something like this.....

Lovely weekends!

Saturday!

saturday morning
savoring the peacefulness
then the kids find me

Sunday:

using Google Earth
reviewing the days travels
it wasn't that flat.

Fruit, protein and dessert all at the same time! That's called being efficient!

my lunch was ice cream
with peanuts and banana
fruit makes it healthy!

Early summer in my back yard!

Tuesday:

I love my backyard

a suburban oasis

weird neighbors and all

(full disclosure: I'm probably the 

weirdest person in the neighborhood.)

Wednesday:

mowing doesn't stop

the grass and weeds keep growing

why do I bother?

Today!

i'm one with the grass

the squirrels have forgotten

mwah ha ha ha ha

Sunday and Monday. Here's to old friends and sweet preteen sons.

Sunday:
even after years,
a few moments together
dissolves the distance.


Monday:
sitting on my lap
edging towards puberty
but for now, a boy.

Four Days at Once! Woo Hoo! Enjoy!

Weds:

Uneventful Day

Can be relaxing or dull

Depends on my mood.

Thurs:

family road trip

sunny pleasant afternoon

spent with each other

Fri:
kids at the dentist
good checkup and free toothbrush
braces in future.


Sat:
the world is not flat
it is most certainly round
why are people dumb?
(for the record this had very little to do with the events of my actual day, I just thought it was funny.)

Kids, kids, kids today!

Yesterday's:

guns and sword from sticks
a child's imagination
great battles are fought

Today's:

allergies are mean
they make my little boy sick
war against the pollen!

Bad, bad doggies!

empty cookie box
peanut butter in bedroom
dog's ill-gotten gains....

I admit I have a problem.....but at least it makes me productive!

Yesterday:
cleaning the windows
removing leaf dams from eaves
houses take much work!

This morning's:

This is horrible!
A problem that must be solved!
Out of Diet Coke....

Thanks Patsy!! :)

Spring walk in the woods
Friend and dogs for company
Makes for sleepy dogs!
