short sleeves here.
I am defiant against the approaching Winter
Giving no heed to the speed of the passing of days
Where nights' flights of fancy imagine that it's not that cold yet here.

It's really hard to get back into serious poetry when there is a comedy show here at bedtime.

I am clinging on to short sleeves here.
I am defiant against the approaching Winter
Giving no heed to the speed of the passing of days
Where nights' flights of fancy imagine that it's not that cold yet here
It's not that cold - yet
Here nips the wind a little harder.
Here pokes the shards of icicles twixt nerve endings
And the hope that I hold of
Warmer weather never losing my enthrall.

I had my fourth full at home day since moving on Saturday. I had an ambitious list and completed almost half.

Mother's Day I got to spend with my girls and V, failing at furniture shopping (a lot of gob-smacking was undertaken), lunching, cuddling kittens, bowling, cooking, eating.

That $84 will be the best $176 you ever spent."
I am pooped and it's not even Tuesday.
You?

I'd be a good audience because that's my kind of humor.
Your new views are lovely!

Glorious captures of the lovely views.

Walking every day despite the weather. here..managed short sleeves one day so far!!
Well done on your settling! And I hear you on defying the seasonal change. Though right now, I'm longing to bring out my summer clothes. It's still too cold here!
I am less pooped than I was yesterday and even less than the day before that. i am happy to say goodbye to summer, but not so happy that the winds are already colder than I htink they should be.
