I wasn’t complacent about the work needed.
And, most days,
I can make it smoothly.
Today is not, so far, most days.
I woke up about to pee,
Starting to go before I hit the toilet seat.
Kitten wanted to play, and play , play, play.
Back knot takes up all the upper left quadrant of my back
Straining constantly,
the DIY ice pack won’t stay in place.
The milk is gone,
favorite cereal isn’t an option,
And, as you grab cream cheese for the toast,
You knock down the extremely full trash can.
The clementine is rotten when you pull it apart
Class is at 11.
Kitty still wants to play,
The house is a mess.
I still refuse to own a bad day,
Today is a day
Meant to balance all the good,
So that I don’t become complacent.
