My life is a mess. My family is a mess and my home is a mess. 1st question: What can I fix? My home for sure. My life somewhat. My family . . . not at all. The answer ? This weekend I am going to do some serious cleaning on my home. Put away, give away or throw away. I need to do this to keep my sanity. If I get my home in order, maybe my life will seem a little better.

Always Family

I wanted an always family,
For all the days of the year.
In good times and bad times
they will forever be near.

I wanted an always family,
to fill my days and nights.
To love me and protect me,
when things aren't going right.

I will in turn be there for them,
when ever they happen to call.
To help them work through problems
no matter how big or small.

I did my part, and I showed up.
I was at their beck and call.
Dried their tears, soothed their fears,
Winter, spring summer and fall.

I got a "sometime" family,
enjoying a life so free.
No one had time to come back home,
when the person in need was me.

You made your choice to live your life,
In a way that's good for you.
Farewell to my sometime family
I've made some choices too.
