30+ Years

I love the way you've
Been there for me.
With just a word
Or a jello parfait.
I appreciate all the
Quiet nights
You let me rest
Even though
It's the same thing
We've done all week.
I appreciate all
the love we've shared
And saved up
For times like this.
I love you.
You are my world.

Thursday

Herceptin

But no flu shot

Since I already

Have a fever.

Getting better

Towards the weekend.

Enjoying the weather

Through the window.

Silver Lining

Overwhelmed
This time by generosity
After a tough weekend
I was surprised
That school families
Have been putting together
A nice surprise.
Their empathy and sympathy
Displayed in a beautiful basket
Of gift cards, lotions, wishes
And love.
Their children make my day.
Their compassion
Makes my life's work
Fulfilling.

Tuesday

Principal gave me 1/2 day off
What to do
Sit and read
Enjoy the sun
Pet a cat-
But I'm out when
My head hits the pillow.

Monday
Urgent Care
Antibiotics
And lots of rest!

Autumn Breezes

Leaves pouring down
Like hot peppers
Red and yellow flakes
To spice up
The landscape.

Saturday on the couch
