Alarm Clock
My inner alarm clock got me up at 5:30. I meant to get up at 6. I thought getting up early would give me a jump start and I'd get a little more done than I'd planned for. However, after I got up, we had yet another electrical storm roll through here and I had to shut down for a while. And then I discovered a leak in the closet which I had to try to cope with for the time being. Surely it won't rain all day, but we are getting enough rain to call this the rainy season, or maybe, the monsoon season.
My husband is giving me last minute instructions. "Take a comb for me." "I'll want a blanket and pillow for on the way home." "Remember when I took my last pain pill."
I'm thinking, "I should have bought some Snickers bars to take along for if I get hungry." "What should I wear that would look good and be comfortable all day?"
All the while, time's passing and I'm sitting here writing, but it's how I cope. I'll take my journal, for sure. I know there will be thoughts that I want to write down.
I wish there could be an easy way through this day.
