I am paying attention...




Just in Case


In this little room in my head I sit
gazing at the moving lights
the sounds are lost in the flashes
stepping back I notice the paint peeling
the flowers drooping
the fish need feeding again
where are my glasses?
oh yes, now I remember
time to wake up and open a window
remove the headphones
take a deep breath
I am alive
better act like it
just in case

You don't have to act, skookum, like it...
You are it! Just in case...you forget.
So how far behind your head do you step...
When you step out?

Some say that three feet...
Will do just fine.
Others say that...
It's best to go out the top.

Flowers droop,
Fishies get fed,
Thoughts of sugar plums,
Dance in heads.

Hi skookie...
The water is just...
Fine! ;)

Yes that IS an order...
That you, at least, CAN fulfill!

SO you've been holiday cleaning?
Is it a once a year thing with y'all?
Do you clean in the spring - again - also?
An no it isn't any of my business.

I injured my knee before last Christmas.. and it was pretty much out of action until a month or so ago.
So I am a bit behind my work.. the kiddies are helping.. bless them every one!

as the house gets cleaner.. I feel happier.. ok so I am shallow lol ..

I get down when my house is messy and disorganized.
