Sitting On My Day So It Won't Go Away
I Woke Up Early So I Can Do More
The sun is not even up yet and I have so many things planned
I know I will have to race around all day just to get most of what I want done
Errands and food shopping is just the beginning
Then there are bills to be paid and the car dropped off for an inspection
Yes I waited to the last day when I thought I would have more time
The phone will start ringing and my children will need a ride
A neighbor might come over and give me some company but P L E A S E
Can it wait till tomorrow when I have more time and less things on my mind
I set the alarm early so I wouldn't over sleep
But I was too jumpy so I got up earlier than that
Too scared to go back to sleep
Since I am up I might as well get a good start
As I rush to the laundry basket and get it ready to bring it downstairs to wash
I think I will eat breakfast now I might not have time later
I almost forgot a friend is moving and they say they would call for some help
I made sure I charged my cell phone so my battery won't die
There was a slow leak in my left back tire I have to get that checked
I was hoping to go to the gym and get a good work out
I will have to go into work early so I can leave early or see if someone will switch and I can work for them another day
There are only two people who said they can do it for me but I have to let them know
I haven't decided who to call one will work for me and I will work for them tomorrow
The other will work for me and I will work for them next Sunday
I am so excited and filled with so much energy
I took out the bathroom cleaner and thought I would clean it now and vacuume later
So I wouldn't make any noise and wake up the family
The cat appointment is at two
My dentist asked if I could come in early because she is going on vacation
I think I will make a meatloaf so I can have it ready to throw in the oven for later when I get home
I will gather the trash after I cut up the watermelon in the refridgerator so it all can go out for the garbage men who come to my neighborhood early
I think I will put out the clothes on the line before I go out so they will dry nice
It is suppose to be a gorgeous day and maybe a chance of showers later tonight
There is nothing like the smell of fresh clothes that have been drying in the air outside
I will arrive at the bank when it first opens to avoid any line so I can get extra money for the week
There is a gas station that takes cash only that is ten cents cheaper than everyone else
I have the gas tank almost empty so I will just stop there first
As my mind is racing I clearly have a plan
My mother wants to go food shopping too so I will pick her up when I drop the youngest one off at school
After we do the food shopping and put the groceries away we both head for a haircut and my mother wants her hair colored so while she is getting that done
I can shoot to the school and pick up my son and then I can drop him and nana off later so I save time
After I go to the parent teachers night at five thirty on the way home I can pick up the clothes at the cleaners for my cousins wedding tomorrow they don't close till late
I pulled out my shopping list and will leave it on the counter so I don't forget it
I have my cell phone and keys next to it
A perfectly planned day that should work out just nice
My eyes are a little tired and that is just because I got up at 5:05 A.M.
I could just go on Facebook for a little bit or turn on the t.v. and see the early morning news
I think I will just close my eyes for fifteen minutes and I will be ready to go
Off to la la land and when I wake I will be so surpised
Since it started to rain early and the pitter patter was so soothing
I didn't hear the phone ring
The day seemed to slip away
This one day I thought of everything I wanted to do but I sat here asleep till noon
