I’ve been at the peak
Beautiful views from the top
The valley beckons
Too much of a good thing pales
Enjoy the lesser triumphs

Monday Movie
“The Pelican Brief”. I read the book and saw the movie years ago, but you might find it relevant today. It is currently available on Netflix. It stars Denzel Washington and Julia Roberts.

Wintergirls Sidlak
***
Socks of wool
Pulled up tight and stuffed
In huge black galoshes trimmed with fur
Giggling small girls bundle up to go sledding
Dressed and ready to attack white mountain snow.
***
Cheeks of red
Cold mittened hands clapping warmth
Tired legs again climb to the top
Shrill shouts of laughter as down they swiftly glide
Two winter girls sledding under gray white clouds.

WordPress Blues
I woke up this mornin’
Had nothing to lose
Opened the iPad
Start the WordPress blues
—
When it’s early in the mornin’
I read by app on my phone
It seems to recognize me with
A completely different tone
—
I push the like, it opens
To somethin’ you have written
You know I love you bloggers
Your words just have me smitten
—
I got the WordPress blues
It’s happenin’ again
Everythin’ disappears
After I push send.
—
Write a comment, push reply
Takes the info, disappears
It’s killin’ me baby,
Will you dry my tears?
It’s killin me baby, I guess crying ain’t no use
I keep tryin’, they keep comin’,
Those old WordPress blues.

Play them blues, boys!

Word of the Day: Random
A completely random happening, the tiny fisherman fell. Placing the teetering man back in his spot, brings memories of when my children had grandfathers. Beside the art object stands a frame displaying a photograph of him holding my oldest son as an infant. Some may say these are dusty knickknacks, but I choose to look at them, and be reminded of gone-by days.
And then you wonder, in a breezeless room, if the occurrence was a brief greeting.

Country Morning
Branches of light lick the corners of the bed, as dawn brings us the morning sun. The imminent rhythm of early chores, preparing breakfast, coffee percolator popping, and the oven door closing till cranberry muffins are baked.
The inner single fireplace log sounds reluctant cracks as the icy wood meets the flame. No time to mince the splendor of the morning routine. Rise and shine.

Pentatonix
Fun video when they were first starting out, “Daft Punk”. The bass, Avi now is on his own with a new album. They have wonderful Christmas albums. Enjoy!

Friday Photo Challenge- Wanna be a Referee?
After a long hard day at work there’s only one thing to do.

Forget chocolate, I’ll just take this
Another, Anyone else?
I know you’re sick of me asking, is it me, because it usually is. I can’t seem to coordinate upgrades to WP, email, phone and iPad in order to make everything work well. I have the Reader, but most people I follow here I receive an email with their latest post. I don’t know who is to blame, me, yahoo, or WP. Lately when I try to leave a comment, I have to put in my name, email address, website url and then comment. After all that repetition, I click on “post comment” and get a blank page telling me I can’t post a comment. I’m also sometimes, getting a weird report looking tiny print version of your post, no pictures, just a huge wide report post and I can’t comment on those either. Times like these I look like the guy in the photo⬆️⬆️⬆️.🤯
If you’re not receiving my comments or likes, I am sorry. I appreciate all of you. Thanks for reading.❤️
