The exercise:

Today we discuss in our writing: initials.

Had a fun family outing for coffee and lunch today (that was the actual plan, unlike last time). Though it was a close call getting Max back home before his fussing turned into a full blown crying extravaganza.

I suppose we were pushing it a bit, having two fairly long outings on back to back days like that.

This afternoon I finally managed to fill up our wood box behind the house with firewood. Only been needing to do that for like a week. I'm hoping to get back to the gym tomorrow, if only for a run on the treadmill and some stretching.

The muscles, they still be sore from Monday.

Mine:

I act as though
They mean nothing to me,
Those four faded letters
Carved into the tree.

A long ago fling,
Just that and nothing more.
Two neighbourhood children,
Foolish and bored.

But I can't stop
Visiting that old tree,
And my eyes give the lie
To Nothing to me.
