Happy New Year

Brr........ing

It's 4:40 in the morning.
It's September 2nd,
It's hot and humid,
Why is that alarm bugging me?

Wait, 

Summer's still got 19 days.

I need one more day,

Maybe a few more.

It's dark, damp 

Not a nice morning.

I slept like a hummingbird,

Darting in and out of dreams.

It's a fresh start.

 Better exercise
So that dress will look good.

First, better check the email, 

Facebook, Twitter.
Sigh, time flies when reading blogs.

Not enough time to a walk

Maybe a few weights before I hit the shower.
I hope to be at school early.

Better hop into the shower,

Perhaps I have the stomach flu?

No, silly.

It's those old butterflies

Back again.

New skirt, new shirt.

It's stylish, I hope.

Blue and lacy.

Fun but maybe it's too young?

What if parents think

I'm trying to dress like them?

.Don't forget the new notebook,
The one with the  Steve Jobs quote.

Oh those butterflies,
I'll need a lunch,
Grab your  sneakers.

I will exercise this afternoon.

Coffee

Pumpkin spice just this one time.

Buses everywhere!!

Why so many this year?
Cars.
Where did they all come from?
Why is there a traffic jam?
Where are they all going?
Why so many trucks?
It's a celebration day

Today's the first day
Hope springs eternal
From every corner,
At the end of every driveway,
In every new outfit,
Within every new pair of shoes,
On every face

Happy New Year.
