We make do....


Isn't it funny,
how we "make-do" when things aren't quite right?
Sometimes....I don't even know what is
wrong...what doesn't fit....
what is slightly askew....
But I move toward making it right
by sticking a wedge in...
propping up a corner....
bring out the
WD-40...
or the
Duct-Tape...
or the
Perma-Bond...
or the...
Coffee....
yep, that's right
Coffee...
along about
3:56 pm
my mind clicks on to
COFFEE!!
It may not be the answer to the
health care crisis...
world peace...
education reform...
or
a flat tire....
but it props me
up for just
a
little
while...
so that I can make it
to
bedtime.

  1. I was just thinking of this when my mom was here, she was bothered by all the things that were askew (I LOVE that word)in my house, while I hardly notice :-). xoxo

  2. I have noticed that "creatives", or artists, or hobbiests have a tendency to be just a bit easier on the complusive cleaning scale...I can live with my mess very well.....thankyou...smiles.
