My Vacation: A poem/story

My vacation started in an odd way,

I didn't go to the beach

till Friday.

I started my vacation on Labor Day,

the Saturday before,

I felt sick.

On the Couch I lay

Monday was the same,

as my body would not move.

Soon, Tuesday came.

Tuesday to the dentist is where I had to go.

Two rotten teeth that I scheduled to be pulled.

Upset and feeling ill,

once home I went to bed.

Wednesday was a busy day,

A mammogram and Doctors appointment.

So what did the Doctor say?

An ear and throat infection,

prescribed me medicine.

As I left I thought,

what a crazy vacation.

Thursday was better to me.

Off to see my 5 year old

grand daughter to school

for the first time.

After she was on the bus,

the family went out to dine.

So back to Friday at the beach,

spent time with my 2 year old

grand daughter,

she buried me in the sand,

from torso to feet.

Later my husband and I,

treated our son and his family

to a Chinese Buffet.

Then we said Goodbye

and went our own way.

So now it is Saturday,

as I sit and type away.

I write my poems and stories

on hubpage site.

Later we babysit

our grandchildren tonight.

Sure it may not seem like a fun week,

but I avoided the work routine.

I did what had to and wanted to be done.

All in all, this not so typical vacation

turned out to be relaxing and also fun.
