MARVELOUS MAY....Day 1

 

It’s 4:00am as I type this.  Yesterday I was determined not to take any grief or anguish.  Yes I put on the big girl panties, wore my sassy shorts and my red BITCH hat.  I stood tall and was ready to rumble.  No one got to me which was fantastic.  
Today a new month begins.  We bid a sad farewell to National Poetry Month. I gave my thoughts in piece one.  In the next piece wrote I about my sassy attire. 
The daily word for yesterday WORMS
I did the pieces on fishing.  As a kid from age eight to twelve I enjoyed fishing.  Loved using a bobber that let me know I had a bite.  I did not fish again until my twenties and stopped by age thirty. Living in Florida I have access to lakes but did not get back to it. 
The wacky holiday piece is more like a thought to me. 
Yesterday I had to check out the sampling of mint juleps the Amvets will be having available for today.  It’s been a while since I had one.  To me it was a tad sweet but they kept trying to get them just right; finally came up with the final product. I’ve always considered a mint julep as a sipping drink not a chugging one. Of course there are those who drink fast no matter what they have.  With it being Kentucky Derby Day they’ll be selling them today. 
Today, tomorrow and Monday will be busy for me.  Late morning today  I have to be at the installation of officers at the Amvets; need to get gas in my car and visit my husband at 1:30. After I need to be back to the Amvets for the Kentucky Derby event.  Sunday I have an Executive Board meeting at the Amvets where I’ll be taking minutes; then need to take minutes at the employee meeting.  Monday I see my husband at 10:30 then at 3:00 have a 40&8 promenade (meeting) plus installation of new officers. Whew I’ll be busy. Yes I’ve taken on the adjutant job at my Amvets and Chef de Train of my 40&8 Locale.  
Right now I need to try to fall back to sleep till seven.  
It’s Saturday.  
Until next time....enjoy the first day of the weekend and as always Stay Safe.

               FAREWELL AGAIN

National Poetry Month ends 
Bidding a sad farewell to thirty days of 
    odes, ballads, rhymes
       limericks, sonnets, free style and 
         haikus 
        have come to a conclusion
How quick the month sped
Still many poems yet to read....
     be heard....
          and written
Seems thirty days not enough time
   to celebrate 
Poetry month
   like the 2021 tax due 
       date should be extended 
💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
                 THE ATTIRE 
Put on my big girl panties
  wearing my sassy pants
    and my BITCH hat this morning 
Watch out world.....here I come 
I’m ready to face whatever comes my 
      way
Not taking any grief....torment....
    anguish from anyone 
  Will stand tall....determined....
      ready to rumble if need be 
No doubt few will get in my way today 
  Definitely need to wear this attire more
    often

                      FISHING 
I can bait my hook with the worm
Even though it’s slimy and wiggles
As one who fishes....I need to do this 
  myself
Fishing with a bamboo pole 
  with red and white plastic bobber
    a fun summer activity as a child
Caught many small sunnies....
  never a trophy

                  WORMS 
Worms wriggle and squirm on the hook
On a lazy summer day they taunt the 
    fish 
Relaxing by the lake....I cast out my line
Movement from the bobber lets me 
    know I caught one
Summertime fishing a relaxing way to
  unwind

    WACKY HOLIDAYS APRIL 30th
(National Raisin Day; National Oatmeal 
  Cookie Day; National Honesty Day;
   Dandelion Day and Arbor Day)

I’ll plant a sapling today
  but first I need to weed the 
       dandelions 
Honestly I’d rather be inside baking
  oatmeal cookies with raisins
