wednesday? yup. wednesday.

yesterday
 i woke at 4:30

 looked at the clock 
thought:
 its sunday
 i could hear the cats
 mainly harry 
whining in the hallway
 through the closed door

 i remember thinking
 no
 its not sunday
 its saturday
 then
 i went back to sleep 

at 5:50
 i woke again
 i lay there
 looking at the clock
thinking:
 fuck me
 its not saturday
 or
 sunday
 its tuesday
 sigh
 hauled my flat ass outta bed
 opened the bedroom door
 to the
 loud
 loud 
loud
 cries
 of
 FEED ME

okay
 okay
 gimme a minute

 its amazing how little time
 i
really
need
 to get up 
feed the cats
 do my morning routine:
 wash brush put on my face get dressed leave

 i prefer
 the
extra time
 i 
listen
 to the weather report
 several
 times
 it takes more than one listen
 to
 penetrate
 my morning brain 

of course
 i like to check emails
 look at instagram
 make sure the blogs published

 i skipped that on tuesday
 there are somethings
 you have to sacrifice
 if you are going to get out on time
....
in the evening
i got home
 to a pile of packages
a nice surprise
 since
 i'd looked at all my outstanding orders
 only hours before
 just one purchase 
was showing
'delivered'

 thank you hilary
 for
 the
incredibly fast shipment
 of
 the
 pink prime mate
 i cant believe 
you shipped it monday
 and
 it arrived tuesday
 awesome 
i know a little girl who is going to love it

i am not saying another word
 about 
the other stuff 
i bought
 cause
 i dont want to give away surprises

 i am nearly done
single handedly
 helping 
revitalize
 the economy
 i bought everything online

i really hate shopping in stores

...

i took this shot
 the last day of jury duty
 i'd walked past
 this little gated park 
many times
 never
 noticing
the water tower 
til
 that last day 



still haven't chosen a photo for our card 
but
 i did print out the mailing labels!


baby steps
sigh
