It's 5am again. I wake alone..but glad to sorta I lay awake. Either til 7am Or my little one comes to hug me. They are learning to get ready on their own and be independent. 8am the bus stops and pulls away. Back to my bed I lay . Stay til the mail comes at 10 or 10:30..depending on the day. Go to check it for any good news. Again I lay. Have i eaten yet? I don't remember. Its noon..I better get some grub in me. So I don't fade away. Let the dog out again. Once more I lay. Til four..Thats when my babies come home. I make snack..dinner and talk to them about their day. Wishing all these feelings were not in my way. Wishing I could get back the hearing loss and it would stay. Wishing the government would not take so long to tell me yes, you will get paid. 8 pm..Again I lay. Closing my eyes to live this same day.
