The Mourning Cloak
The best of life is what I have
My life is long and sweet
I will visit every flower
I flutter to and meet.
Secret Keeper #174 – Gift Rebuff
Opening up the gift, exclaimed
Oh my god, I have been maimed!
This must be a mistake
How rude of you, you rake!
I could never make this fit
Looks like an elephant sized knit
Thought you were the friendly kind
But just look here at what I find
This gift is certainly a disgrace
From me you’ll receive no embrace.
Sorry, don’t mean to seem ungrateful
I realize I’m acting hateful
Next time please don’t just surmise
Ask me what is my true size.
MLMM Wordle #216
How sad, this bother, ministering aide to this forgotten man. At first he pulled at my heartstrings, in an oblique manner, or so I thought. Joe was a needed glow, a placebo of sorts, for my missing mate.
I didn’t realize how lonely I was, how needy, how I’d slipped into a self deprecating mush of need. I don’t think Joe was trying to maim my heart, but of course, I did let him. He needed me even more than I needed him.
Today was the last straw. I finally woke up to realize the crux of my problems was not Joe, or his fault, not really, it was a result of my desperation. Joe was also a victim, and we needed to go our separate ways. We both need closure of our past relationships, move into the future with confidence, a new found purpose.

Word of the Day: Resolutions
What about these resolutions?
I have to change my constitution?
If I do will there be restitution
Tell me, what’s the solution
Could the answer be confucian
I think it requires dissolution
Of certain holiday pollution
Might I achieve absolution
If I follow the dilution
Of Christmas treats?
Just Jot it January – 1-1-19
2018? What can I say. . .mostly disgusting news on the home front, some family struggles now resolved, and hope for a better new year. 🤞🏻✌🏻👍🏻🤓
What is Just Jot it January 2019? – Rules
REBLOG! Looking forward to this again! Join in, perk up your January!
Welcome to the sixth annual Just Jot it January challenge!
I began JusJoJan in 2014 for the simple reason that I wanted an excuse to push myself to write a post every day of the month. From there it grew to a challenge for many others to start their year off writing, to give us all a boost, and not least of all, to help us find our community here at WordPress. In the past few years we’ve had people join us from other platforms and from their own self-hosted sites. It’s been an amazing run, and one I hope to keep up for years to come.
So, what is Just Jot it January? The rules explain it all:
1. Just Jot It January starts January 1st, but it’s never too late to join in! Here, we run on the honour system; the “jot it” part of JusJoJan means that…
