Just a short recap, today, outlining need to neutralize imperfectionist tendencies
Last evening, a disagreement arose between two family members, leaving one
Feeling overwhelmed, however, if that’s the first example of bad news marring
Our family’s fun-filled weekend then here’s the good—quick thinking aroused
Humility and clarity on the part of the one who, having taken the high road
Consciously chose to cool down their heated conflict so as to resolve their
Head-on collision in record time,suggesting why our love fest, experiencing
No more than a minor bleep, rolled on without need to detour away from fun
Now, on to more bad—Tony, feeling lethargic, had developed a low-grade fever
Good news—he recovered, over night, in time to enjoy our home game, today
Funny bad news—no Bbq, because I forgot to remember that a small animal had
Created a nest inside of it to keep her young safe from harm—LOL!
Good news—we have a phone and ordered in Italian take-out
Good news—Ravi enjoyed a sleepover with her cousins, and she and Ray
Played happily, non-stop, most especially within a pop up puppet theater
That being barely big enough for one, held two imaginations spell bound
Bad news—earlier in the week, we realized that my nephew’s birthday brunch
Conflicted with today’s home game kick off time—oh no!
Good news—brunch was good naturedly moved back an hour to accommodate
Everyone's pleasure center, and as we each basked in the limelight of
A loving abundance of mutual consideration, all around, everyone’s spirit
Enjoyed a rollicking good time until our home team lost, badly—again
As my ticket was one of the four offered to Barry’s family, I drove myself
Home after my nephew’s lovely birthday brunch feeling deeply blessed
And not at all stressed, which is why my exhaustion in the aftermath of
Our crazy busy weekend actually felt peaceful, and thus, when Will returned
Home from the disappointing game, he found me smiling, lying on my side of
Our bed where he and I commiserated over our team’s loss, while
My heart, mind and spirit, buoyed by a consciously considered, positively
Focused attitude concerning need to consider bigger pictures, continued to feel
So content about our family’s winning ways as to set aside the fact that
Our home team is as messed up as is true of our home, though Marie
Accrued extra credit points for having insisted upon doing all of
The guest room linen before leaving for the game, after which
She, Barry and their boys drove directly back to the coast, so Tony and Ray
Would not miss even one day of school, while I, decided that the rest of
The clean up will best be left till tomorrow, because, having learned to listen
To my body, which is in kahoots with my intuitive powers, I felt too pooped
To do anything other than snooze on and off, followed by penning and posting
Today’s heartfelt, well-balanced recap of our whirlwind, fun-filled weekend —
Photos to follow tomorrow; why? Brain too pooped to conjure them up, today
Ohhmm ...
