So, on the sound advice from a very close friend, my poem streak ends today. That’s not to say that I’m never going to write any poems, but it just means that I’m going back to regular writing in addition to poem writing. I know that I said I want to see if I can write a peom every day, but I found that on some days it was difficult and, consequently, my poems ended up sounding forced. And…that really bothers me a great deal. I may not be writing a bazillion books or anything, but when I’m in the right mindset, I can write me a good poem!! 

So, speaking of poems, yesterday, July 10, 2016, my poem was officially published‼️‼️‼️. You can find it on the Pain News Network site. To support me, please check it out and add a short comment. It will increase the likelihood that I will get more of my writing published by them!! Thank you!!Thank you in advance!! To check it out, go to http://www.painnewsnetwork.org and look for where it says, A pain poem – Locked Inside. Or click on this direct link: http://goo.gl/QF5FOd. I’m pretty excited about it! I know it’s just a web site, but it’s still a very amazing feeling! It makes me want to do more!! Write write write!!  

We had to drive to camp Wohelo at Pigeon Lake to drop off my middle daughter at camp. Last year was a gong show (you can probably find an old post about it), so I have my fingers crossed that this year will be better. She really wants to be chosen as an LIT (leader in training). There’s no reason why she shouldn’t be chosen, but that’s what we thought last year. But, I can’t worry about it all week. I’ll just have to wait and see what happens. I can’t do anything about it, so that’s that. I have to release it to the universe. When I keep worrying it wreaks havoc on my body!! Too much stress is bad for pain…weird eh?! Actually, it’s pretty darn normal. 

Well, I’m off to bed, where I will NOT worry about my kiddo…
