This has been a wonderful evening of writing. I’ve produced several poems. Of course, they all need various levels of revision. But some have potential! I’ve been reading and writing since I got home from lunch.
We went to Mission BBQ today for Veterans Day. I’m so grateful to all who serve. The table for the POWs was set, and C taught A about the different objects at the table and what they signify. It was funny though because it was L, our exchange student’s, first time going to a bbq place. And since it was Veterans Day, everyone stood up at their table, hand over heart, listening to the national anthem sung. A flag was raised. It was about the most American thing I’ve ever seen. L was bewildered. It’s funny to see American culture from fresh eyes.
Tomorrow I have two appointments. It will keep me pretty busy. I am hoping I sleep tonight but I’m not taking my sleep medicine. It leaves me flat and tired all day. I can’t win. I’m manic or else I’m low.
