#273/365--Peace at Midnight

 I was up
"burning the midnight oil"
reading
Psalms
...couldn't sleep...
had a lot on my mind

#269/365--Sent Home

I was
...nauseated...
but
went to school anyway
...and got sent home...
so
all I did
was
...sleep...
and play
WWF
and
also
....did some....
binge watching
on
Netflix

I dunno about this stomach
...of mine...

#268/365--Necklace

...as in...
Lauren's
...that she texted me about...
wondering if
...I had seen it...
and there it was
...on her bed...

#264/365--Bike Hauling

Michael got sick
after biking
to his friend's house
for a sleepover

...he came home early...
which meant
that
I had to go
...retrieve the bike...
today

...maybe that explains...
why he was
...vacuuming the stairs...
...and laundering...
yesterday?

#263/365--Vacuuming the Stairs

...without being asked...

even did his own
...laundry...

sometimes
maturity
...peeks out...
every now and then

...but sometimes even the most mature...
 cannot resist the...
Cookie Monster PJs

#262/365--Grace

My BFF's niece
...whom I taught in Kindergarten...
...and haven't seen...
in
a long while
...sweetGrace...

#261/365--For the Love

It was an exhausting day
...early to school...
meetings all day
meetings all afternoon
...late getting home...
But my boy
...waited for me...
and we went to get something to eat
but
not before
my Indian neighbor
...whom I have never spoken to...
had an entire 20 minute conversation with me
...without taking a breath...
...of which I did not understand...
except for the part
...where...
...she explained to me about...
yoga breathing exercises
that help with
...bladder control...
and
how
to
squeeze
my
bottom
and
my
..."you-know..."
(as she motions to my...
..."you-know...")

all because they had my
...recycling bin...
by mistake


...won't you please...
...won't you please...
please won't you be
...my neighbor...

#252/365--Moon and Sun

I tried to get
...the SuperMoon...
and
the
SunRise
in the
...same shot...
The moon is just above the car
in my side mirror
but
it's not as visible as I'd
...wished...
it was a cool sight

#251/365--Latchkey Kid

Michael started riding
...the bus...
today
and
even though
he is
...fourteen years old...
I was still
...nervous...
about him coming home
...all by himself...

...dipped in the mashed potatoes...
sometimes
school lunch
is
absolutely fabulous

#245/365--Not Working

...I got to school...
and my A/C
wasn't working
...and that's not the highest it got...
Needless to say

the first few hours
...working in the computer lab...
