The One Thing We Didn't Do

As you get a little older, there are a few things the family just doesn't do at the
beach anymore. One that I kinda miss...


After a much-too-long drive today (after a 11 am-ish departure from MB), I settled in for another few hours of work. Of course, there's still more to do, though. Ugh. Back at it full-time tomorrow. And maybe I can come up with something interesting to write about on the blog. For now, I'll give you a link to the almost-birthday-girl's post about her sandwich man. Lis is a funny girl & a great writer. And I'd LOVE to read more of her original poetry on her blog! I love reading other people's blogs. Hint, hint, hint. :-)

And finally, I loved the eclectic "playlist" on my drive home, so I thought I'd share some of my own... borrowed... hodge-podgey... poetry:

Seems the road less traveled
Shows happiness unraveled
And you got to take a little dirt
To keep what you love
Thats what you gotta do

I dive in at the deep end
You become my best friend
ah- ah she said things I obsess
I would never confess

Let me watch by the fire and remember my days
And it may be a trick of the firelight
But the flickering pages that trouble my sight
Is a book I'm afraid to write

It takes four days to get to like me
but two to want to leave
but the part that really gets me
are all the moments in between

I can whisper in your ear
I can write a calendar year
I can wing around your Saturn smile and shout at the moon
