I know I should

April 29, 2008

Alarm set to go off a few minutes after I wake my want to go back to sleep is so tempting

The voice of my doctor reading my stats resounds in my head

"You need to start exercising"

I hear repeatedly

I roll over and go back to sleep

Later at breakfast as I fix my plate

I hear the voice again

"You need to start exercising"

Shaking my head, I continue

I continue this routine as I have for the last 5yrs

Bacon, eggs, fried potatoes

This is my general every day breakfast

I crave pasta so I eat pasta

Avoiding my doctors calls

Until I can no longer keep him at bay

Looking at me, he says again

"You need complete bed rest"

In shock, I continue to listen

Not comprehending

Everything he says

Some words make it though

Weak heart, high cholesterol, bedpans, sponge baths, home nurse

Two months to live

Too late should have exercised

"GOOD MORNING SUMTER IT IS A BEAUTIFUL DAY SHAKE OFF YOUR TENNIS SHOES AND GET OUT SIDE SHED THOSE HOLIDAY POUNDS!!!"

Jumping out of bed

A mad dash for my clothes

Bare footed and out the door

My Brother

Dad's cats tore my socks

My dog ate my shoes

My brother chewed

My sister's shoes

He is my dog

Birthday?

April 3, 2008

My birthday has come

Finally, I can celebrate again

Everyone is here

The gifts

The cake

Ooh! The ice cream we eat

A piñata full of candy

Playing games

Having a grand time

It is time to leave

Everyone is gone

It is a quarter to midnight

I feel sad

My day has ended

The years will change but

My day will not come again

48 months I will wait

For my birthday comes

Once every four years

The note

April 21, 2008

It must be here

I am sure it is here

Where is it hidden?

Stop and think

Where could it have gone?

It was here before

I have to hurry and find it

Where did he hide it?

I need it

No, no not now

He cannot be home

Ah, ha I found it

SCORE its mine now

Hehehehe

Tape?

He thinks tape is going to stop me

A quick snip, snip

I'm in mawhaha

Huh? A note

"Your doctor said no more chocolate until the baby is born love you honey"

Grrrrrr he knows me so well

.....or does he???

I need to keep looking

Hehehehe

Camera Phone

April 24, 2008

It is simple

Not that long ago

Just a quick shot

Black lenses

And red frames

Your grin says you are happy

If not a little goofy

Blue hat backwards

Sunglasses on

Grin on your face

Fun in the sun

Are you ready?

Say cheese

This is your cell phone début
