<p>I temporarily
Dropped other stuff
To work on IDOC.</p>
<p>I promised myself
To send it tomorrow.
Let’s see if I can do.</p>
<p>It’s Valentine’s Day!
Sending wishes for happy
celebrations, y’all!</p>
<p>S1’s still sleeping
but toffee covered pretzels
await on his plate.</p>
<p>S2 rose early
Liked his heart-shaped chocolate pop.
Back to Legos now.</p>
<p>H is showering.
Espresso coffee beans! Wow
he’s energetic.</p>
<p>D’s at school of course.
Sent a cute txt last night: THX
4 CUTE CARDS/CANDY!</p>
<p>Is it a problem
That I am only happy
When I take a nap?</p>
<p>Naps are very good.
Even research supports what
we already know.</p>
<p>some heart shaped sausage
pancakes in a pale pink shade
Moms show love with food</p>
<p>how were the pretzles
for HMW’s S
Did he love them lots?</p>
<p>Did S2 make a
Lego heart with MOM in it
like Popeye’s tattoo</p>
<p>mafool snooze away
Awaken and feel refreshed
Rested, ma smiles more</p>
<p>Jump In! College tours!
Open your eyes to new life.
Wait, I’m not ready.</p>
<p>CC land, my pals!
I send you a Valentine.
Wisdom, humor, love.</p>
<p>Thanks, esobay! We
send those warm thoughts back to you.
Good to see you here.</p>
<p>S1 loved pretzels
S2 said, “look what I made!
Wall-E and Eva!”</p>
<p>Making Lego Eve
sounds tricky but he did it.
Sweet little pirate.</p>
<p>H and i went out -
Slumdog Millionaire was great.
Cried in our popcorn</p>
<p>Then in our sushi.
Twenty-six years together!
So very lucky.</p>
<p>Hey HMW hi
Our 26th on Monday
Not alone this year</p>
<p>Next will be brand new
empty nesters we will be
unless D comes back!!!</p>
<p>26 this June!
There’s no getting out alive
I said to husband!</p>
<p>@harriet</p>
<p>Rotator cuff bad
I’ve had problems for ten years
exercise is good.</p>
<p>Won’t have surgery.
Friends have and all regret it.
Hurts more afterwards.</p>
<p>Must let shoulder rest!
Do not use until well-healed.
Might do more damage.</p>
<p>Ibuprofen helps.
Is this a sports injury?
Must not do same thing!</p>
<p>Hangs head in much shame
Husband/ anniversary
Year twenty seven</p>
<p>“hardy har mafool
your cohort here does include
those who’ve murdered threads”</p>
<p>Hmmm . . . I know that’s a quote from Shakespeare - but which play?</p>
<p>It’s twenty-nine hours
since the last posted haiku.
Is this thread now toast?</p>
<p>Toast? Of course it’s not!
Waffles, perfectly done, on
seasoned waffle iron.*</p>
<p>*I grew up in the south and pronounce this word “arn,” so it fits.</p>
<p>Husband collects them:
out of date waffle irons*,
believe it or not.</p>
<p>*northerner: 2 syllables</p>
<p>Waffle eaters here
Current iron* is too small
Husband makes messes</p>
<p>*Yankee pronunciation</p>
<p>Husband makes mess, too,
but makes excellent waffles,
so I forgive him.</p>
<p>Always beats egg whites,
and uses some whole wheat flour.
Tender, light, hot, good!</p>
<p>Must use real syrup
boiled down from the maple sap.
Nothing less will do.</p>
<p>I made BBQ in the rain
In the afternoon
For kids’ post Valentine.</p>
<p>I thought I knew
The ying and the yang
Of financial aid meterials.</p>
<p>But I didn’t.
I almost forgot form 1099G
For IDOC.</p>
<p>And son did not know
He had to send
Cal Grant GPA verification.</p>
<p>Home made syrup, mmmm
We have to just make do with
Grade B from Trader Joes</p>
<p>Dear husband also beats
Those egg whites till they’re fluffy
No healthy wheat though.</p>
