He was mesmerized from the start, her presence so appealing
His awkward efforts failed and ended up revealing
He was a novice in this game
His heart an open entity
Hers locked in failure fame
Undaunted, knew he could find the key.

I do not think it odd
Or bothersome you see
When always asked the question
Exactly what I see in thee
It’s not the obvious
Beauty so profound
It’s that you’re curious
Traits in which you‘re bound
And the love of it I’ve found.

Feeling warm breezes
A wisp of a reminder
Summer’s on the way

The bounty of rain on the dry disheveled grounds was welcomed and the thirsty earth acted like a wick, consuming the liquid quickly. Men parenthetically appeared to chase the odds of such miracles, but the gods signaled their intent with thunder and opened the heavens once more.

The leak to the press was unfortunate. The plan to grow leeks on the moor was more of an attempt at saving limited garden space and encourage using these areas to be more productive. When the plan was outed, protesters from the National Onion Society appeared in full protest gear, dressed in bright green.

Their transitory lifestyle discouraged a permanent relationship with a friend.

The table was set, the mice were there
It was going to be a ceremonial affair
The lady Marie was dressed in mink
The groom outfitted with a tie of pink
There were flowers and garlands
Mice came from all lands
To see the special wedding occur
When two unruly guests caused a stir
Hickory and Dickory were names of the culprits
Both of them being rather dull wits
Decided to run up and down the grandfather clock
Causing a disturbance, trying to block
The wedding ceremony, because you see
Dickory was in love with Marie.

Have you ever tried to prove that you are you? I remember seeing a funny movie about it once but in reality it is not funny.
Somehow I lost my state ID and my SS and Medicare cards…I’ve searched every pocket, nook and cranny and can’t find them. I always have the cards together and include them with my debit card and a credit card in a rubber band.
I don’t carry a purse because I have a backpack on the wheelchair that holds all my necessities in case I need to change clothes etc. The backpack has a zippered pocket where the card pile is kept.
Usually if it’s a quick trip in a store I leave the backpack in the car and put the banded card pile in my pocket. If I don’t have a pocket I ask whoever family member is with me to put it in their pocket. I rarely go anywhere – for at least a year.
Now I am flummoxed as to where those certain cards can be since it would only be a doc’s office I would need them. I’ve called everywhere I’ve been and all the family, no luck.
I paid $40 to get a new SS card online and have to fill out some forms. Same for WY DoT to get a new ID since I don’t drive I have to have a state ID instead of a driver’s license.
Still here? This is my life now so I’ll let this post if you’re still reading…be a warning to glue your important cards to your body somewhere, preferably an easy to reach area🤪
In order to obtain new cards you need your old cards—what? Or a birth certificate, and marriage license, or passport, parents’ similar items, plus rent and utility bill, doctor visit receipt, etc, the list is long and that’s only if you are already born in the US!
Of course this requires my daughter or one of my grandkids to drive me to these places and wait—the DMV is the worst, and my passport which I used 44 years ago, I doubt I could find it now. This includes another warning: if you move a lot, put all these necessary ID items in a plastic zippered bag and tape it to your body while in the process of moving. You’ll thank me later. And if right now you don’t know where all these items are, then start looking. You never know when you’ll have to prove you are who you are.
The only picture IDs I have for proof are the VA hospital ID necklace you wear as a volunteer and the WY DoT for riding the curb to curb bus. Btw, the post I wrote about that bus debacle has been taken down. It is the second rant that has been confiscated by WP😳🙄. I thought this was MY blog?
Swimming in the altogether
No need for good weather
It’s all of us just swimmin’
The boys, the girls and women
Especially if you’re single
It’s such fun to mingle
Among the plants and shells
Enjoying sea foam smells
We fishes have it fine
In fact our life’s divine!
