Chico’s Tacos
Temporary Freedom
Over the summer of 2020, while we had been advised against traveling or having social-gatherings; I put my summer to good use. I had some pretty new cabinets put in my house. Well, used but new to me. We had a social distance paint party to get them ready. I have amazing friends. It wasContinue reading “Temporary Freedom”
Breaking In
One Sunday, I’m hanging out with *fam-ends. As the day wounds down, I run to my house to take fresh dry laundry off the line and care for Chico, my little dog. I finish my tasks and head back out. In typical me fashion, I have my hands full. I stuck the key in theContinue reading “Breaking In”

Ode to Rain
You encourage the flowers to grow. But then I have to mow. Blossoms bring forth fragrances sweet. But wait, bees! I scream, running in defeat. Summer shower, cool a blistered ground. A popcorn shower, I feel like a rat – drown. Drops bloop on ponds making happy little fishies. Shoes soaked. Toes are icky andContinue reading “Ode to Rain”
Interrupt Sleep
Sleep is an amazing event in my life. My bed is soft and warm. Sleep wraps me in comfort. It erases the stress of the day. Oooh, if I get to dream, especially a good dream, sleep transports me to a whole new world. Sleep is my friend. One night I am ripped from myContinue reading “Interrupt Sleep”
