one more one more day

Edward Hopper. The Lonely Woman

Day 14 of the Captivating Situation. 

The replacement nurse called out. 

I have one more good day left. 

After this I definitely turn into a pumpkin. 

It’s easier when you’re familiar 

With the case. 6 years ought to do it. 

Beautiful Soup, so rich and green,

Waiting in a hot tureen!
Who for such dainties would not stoop?
Soup of the evening, beautiful Soup!
Soup of the evening, beautiful Soup!

If you don’t know this song (poem) 

Just go ask Alice. Lol. 

The Mock Turtle’s Soup Song. 

Retraining a heart is like training a dog. 

It takes time. 

Go Go Gadget Nurse! 

Someone on YouTube said 

I look like Gollum. Thanks a lot! 

Well.. I kinda do. Lol! 

This is what my ego looks like 

Without the Human Skin Suit on. 

Ever had someone stage a fight 

Right before a holiday 

And then make up? 

If you don’t want to get me a gift, 

No worries. Just move on. 

Smugglers Blues 

“The lure and ease of money 

Has a very strong appeal…”

Indeed it does. 

But here it ends. 

Nurse needs kitty time. 

And I want to wake up in my own bed. 

Money is good. But I’m not for sale. 

(Just for rent. Lol.)

The Calorie In Calorie Out

CICO Is a fraud. 

Eat Less Move More is a lie. 

Or we would all be Twiggy! 

I look like Betty Crocker. 

Time for a haircut and color! 

memes for the win

Or female lol 

a good place

Stolen from a Facebook friend. 

The mythology of winter. 

Alluring. But really - cold!  

They should make a Hallmark movie

About a woman who leaves the small town

And goes to the big city, whereby 

She makes a happy life

With no man, no fancy-pants job, 

And just a cat or dog. 

They have the Aging Hippie motif. 

They have the Aging Lesbian. 

How about an aging Single Nurse?

I’ll volunteer to take the part. 

Mom makes sure I get some 

Chicken Soup. 

Every time I eat, I sweat now. 

There was more but - chargers. 

Go to bed at 8 pm. 

You’ll be ready to get up at 4 am. 

But go back and get some bonus sleep. 

Trust me. It’s Devine. 

Already working 5 days a week. 

Cock-a-freaking-doodle-do!

Look what I did! 

I laid myself a Golden Egg. 

This is Day 13! 

Off tomorrow. 

December is already booked. 

Fine by me! 

The red is days off. 

I’m I’m lucky. 

It’s good to know I won’t be in 

Abject poverty when I retire. 

Which is in 10 short years. 

“LOL”

And I didn’t have to sell my soul

Or inherit my security. 

I’m rich in strength and health. 

Which is more than many people 

My age can say. 

Not like Elon Musk rich. 

But more like local weatherman rich. 

They always have a lovable, nerdy mix. 😍

I’m  healthy enough to do 14 doubles 

And still be productive on my feet. 

And not cranky. 

Ye Olde Bathroom Selfie 

I wish the pounds just flew off 

During times like this. They don’t. 

I’m sure I’m running on pure 

Cortisol and Adrenaline. 

I don’t go too fast. 

But I go pretty far. 

(Got a brand new key!

Remember that song?)
