12/31/17 New Year's Eve

What a wild weekend!
Cooking, cleaning, laundry
and guests. Wasn't sure I'd
quite make it there for a
while. It was all good and
quite exciting. No weddings
for a while, please!

unexpectedly
survived wedding and parties
bought lotto tickets

12/30/17 - Nico Weds

Today I wed my first grandchild.
Sometimes, I believe I think of myself
as that young woman who came back
to US, or the gal who turned 40 whilst
teaching in Commerce City. And yet,
here I am, only two years away from
70. Gives one something to think about.

the wheel still turning
should celebrate this each day
alas we forget

12/29/17

We're in Grand Junction marrying my first grandson.
He came home from the Army for the event. They
are just so young . . . but so was I.

like mother like son
dreams of yesteryear today
anticipation

12/28/17

Nicholas, who was only born yesterday,
has not only joined the army but is coming
home today to get married. So hard to believe.

anticipation
a marriage in the making
off to my home town

12/27/17

Antonio, my godson, surprised me with
spending the day with me. I swear, I love
him nigh onto as much as I love my children.

nuestra plática
la sorpresa es mía
es tan sabrosa

12/26/17

Recovering from x-mas with Russel's family.
It was delightful and I was and am engentada.

define family
his hers mine ours theirs it works
wonder of wonders

12/25/17 - Christmas Day

'Tis Christmas Day and part of me can't even
believe how this has happened. I honor the
Christian Christ; he was an amazing man.
So wish we could all be more like him. He is,
and always will be, one of my heroes.

on this christmas day
honoring the christian christ
heroes remind us

12/24/17 - Christmas Eve

It feels more like X-mas as it snowed
last night, just in time for the holidays.
The trip home was treacherous! But,
Russel is a pro driver after all.

praying for safety
a white christmas awaits us
the price of beauty

12/23/17

I find myself longing for peace,
world peace of course, but I was
thinking more along the lines of
peace within. Being anxiety ridden
all the time is a great deal of hard
work. I'm beyond exhausted with
it. Pray send out the little men in
white coats if there is no cure . . .

prayers by my bedside
so longing for peace within
will pay any price

12/22/17

We've got to work out this delivery thing. The
UPS man, or whomever, came both yesterday
and the day before. We were here and neither
of us heard him We are empty-handed and not
quite sure how to work this out. Might seem
silly, but it is the holiday season, after all.

waiting for santa
yule maiden did not come
where are my heroes

12/21/17 - Yulle, Winter Solstice

We came home from Longmont last night
as we had gone to see ZAK. We hadn't seen
him in four years. 'Twas most lovely seeing
him and catching up. The two moms, Robin
and I, took us out to lunch and ZAK surprised
us by treating. Ones grown up children are
always rather a surprise.

when did you grow up
from teenager to adult
blink of an eye

12/20/17

I should celebrate. Got almost an
entire four hours of sleep last night.
It's just getting better and better. 'Tis
no wonder some troubled souls turn
to drink, but I refuse as I only want
it for celebratory purposes.

pray mister sandman
sing a song for me for me
need my lullabies

12/19/17

what's the price the cost
ere i die of exhaustion
pray pay the sandman

12/18/17

Been coming apart at the seams for a
long while now. Sometimes are scarier
than others and that's probably to be
expected. My prayer is that I can see
the humor and not go the alternative
route just because the joke on me has
lasted far too long.

stay with me girlfriend
you can make it through this too
your track records good

12/17/17

As conscientious women, we most likely
spend our entire lives making the effort
to grow, to become, to be someone. I
imagine the struggle feels different for
each, but in the striving, we are sisters.

longing to become
will i ever measure up
starting to despair

12/16/17 - Celebrating Yule

At Yule, the dark half of the year abdicates
to the light half. Starting at sunrise, the sun
climbs a little higher and stays a little longer
in the sky each day. Solstice Night, or the
longest night of the year, the sun's rebirth is
celebrated with joy.

pray lets lose the dark
longest night new beginnings
welcome mister sun

12/15/17

Reading isn't necessarily escapism.
Having said that, not certain I could
survive without it. It brings the world
and its saving grace to my doorstep
even as I am a prisoner of my own
choices.

a gift from the gods
the love of literature
keeping me alive

12/14/17

I find myself wishing for a good night's rest.
It seems like it's been forever and a day since
I've slept much and slept dreamlessly. I have
to wonder what it is about the human psyche
that causes sleeplessness and nightmares.

forget sleepless nights
longing for some clarity
i want a refund

12/13/17

betwixt befuddled
tween spellcastings and cursings
id rather be jinxed

a true quandary
loving two but choosing one
choices life offers

body and soul exhausted
rest for the wicked

05/06/17

in my heart and mind
on rainy days and sundays
still thinking of you

05/05/17 - Cinco de Mayo

learning my lessons
making an effort trying
going the distance

05/04/17

understanding choice
another beautiful day
may i embrace it

05/03/17

ma nature and me
i say weather fair she snows
going round and round

05/02/17

spewing my sorrow
in a moment of weakness
mount vesuvius

05/01/17

i learn or concede
san juan de la cruz stands by
dark night of the soul

04/30/17

conversation shared
a gathering a meal friends
my meaning of life

04/29/17

tis beauty and beast
allure and danger in one
this mountain of white

04/28/17

to worry or not
living with the all unknown
i so need answers

04/27/17

considering sins
may i leave them in the past
the future is new

04/26/17

where have i left it
so need a tad of courage
do please share with me

04/25/17

slowly gently go
existing between heartbeats
scared of my shadow

04/24/17

tis recognition
as well as the acceptance
hate reality

04/23/17

in search of courage
gift of the god and goddess
when it comes to me

04/22/17

traveling life now
on the anxiety train
final destiny

04/21/17

dangers of the mind
trampling all over feelings
heart is suffering

04/20/17

of memories made and lost

her heart wrenching loss
expected but sorrowful
caught between longings

surprises ahead
I can hardly wait to see
the gifts of today

04/12/17

of friendship i sing
universes wondrous gif

04/11/17

missing life and death
wish they would come out and play
where to go from here

04/10/17

incomplete picture
searching for missing pieces
the puzzles meaning

04/09/17

my bent for perfect
a hell of my own making
burning burning burned

04/08/17

I look seek tremble
a cold wind blows through my soul
'tis the taste of fear

04/07/17

frightened unto death
heart is full coffers empty
much courage needed

04/06/17

old thoughts new thinking
which to accept which reject
courage from nowhere

04/05/17

white a depth and breadth
snowing as never before
a blanket most deep

04/04/17

now from boys to toys
not the other way around
it is a toss up

04/03/17

a gourmand am i
supping at queen esthers feet
in adoration

04/02/17

forging ahead now
toward the swamp of my psyche
dark murky business

04/01/17

letting go my pasts
still longing for tomorrows
celebrating nows

on wings of fear i free fall

03/15/17

with tears streaming down
from my fathers heart to his
message now revealed

must be the coffee i fear
my crown for some sleep

cold fog snow bringing sorrow

03/09/17

my heart for a song
the melody temps my soul
do sing for me please

03/08/17

thinking about it
angels working overtime
they cant catch a break

03/07/17

look into the skies
hope flies on wings of eagles
not a bird in sight

03/06/17

madness abating
winter storms almost over
sun is returning

03/05/17

looking back today
at what has gone on before
shaking and trembling

03/04/17

ostara brings gift of spring
saving grace for me

dreams in cahoots with nightmares
heart runs for its life

running away from the dark
mysteries await

resolutions come and gone
pray strength for the day
