MAY DAYS of FUN....Day Twenty




Today is trash pick up day.  Again I woke up at 4:00am and thought I need to get out the trash bin by eight.  It seems my Wednesday’s are a day I look forward to.  I see other neighbors taking out their bins about the same time. We shout hello and inquire how we are doing.  It’s like a party.  I’m thinking we should all meet at the curb with coffee in hand for a chat.  Can’t do much else still in quarantine mode.  That idea of having trash rolling party triggered the second thing I did at 4:00am. The other thing I wrote came from my late night (till midnight) reading of a cozy mystery.  Once in awhile I enjoy that genre of mysteries.  I sometimes have to reread the book to see where I missed a clue.  Nine times out of ten I can not figure out the bad guy.  
I think both pieces today will be going in the memories collection of my life poems.  
Until next time....enjoy the day. I will be headed out shortly to the trash bin rolling party; then going back to bed for awhile.  Falling asleep around 1:00am waking up at 4:00am then working on stuff takes a tool on a person.  My sleep pattern is screwed up with this stay at home thing.  Kiddingly I will wear my tiara when I do the task of rolling out the trash bin, after all it’s my morning outing. 

Day 20....DAILY REFLECTIONS 


Hump Day....wow already     
     Wednesday....times flies when you’re    
           having fun....but I AM NOT
Today is just going to be another day like
    yesterday....except I’ll have on different 
           clothes 
Roll out the receptacle....it’s garbage 
     day....what does one wear to take out the      
           trash bin these days?....maybe my 
                tiara with my  jammies

Started a new book to read....a cozy mystery....one of many I own
Like all others in this genre the heroine an 
      amateur sleuth....getting into 
        predicaments at times dangerous 
I enjoy being caught up in the world of
    those putting their in nose where it 
             doesn’t belong....I am nosey too
Their occupations vary....not all a retired 
     school teacher like Jessica Fletcher
I’ll read straight through at times....need to 
    find out how they solved the mystery 
Few times I figure it out....more often 
       not....so I reread to find the clues I 
                  missed 
 Knowing I’ll never make a good Nancy 
      Drew....so arm chair sleuth I’ll stay

Let’s roll out the trash bins....time for a tad bit of fun 
Roll out the trash bins....let’s all get out 
         awhile in the sun 

I’ll don my tiara and put on my silky capris 
Cause I have the urge to dress up fancy 
Haven't been dressed up in weeks 
Meet you at the curb....we’ll party six feet 
         apart 

Roll out your trash bins it’s Wednesday....it’s 
       garbage pick up day 
Come out make the neighborhood       
       scene....don’t hurry back inside 
The trash bin rolling party a sure way to 
     beat the monotony
Of you being stuck inside quarantined
