This what my day is like since I have been very ill.
Bored Out Of My Mind
by Barbara Lynn Terry
As I sit here and look out of my window,
I see a blue sky and white fluffy clouds
and the temperature is mid seventies
a perfect day to go to the park.
But I am stuck in this house,
sniffling, coughing, and doing nothing
but watching tennis on tv and writing
this poem about being bored.
I could go out, but would that be wise?
I have a virus that just won't quit
but I could have some fun
even if I have a coughing fit.
No I think I had better stay indoors
and watch my neighbors drinking Coors
and laughing and having a good time
in the perfect sun on a perfect day.
So wrapped up in my snuggie
I curl up on the sofa and watch
my tennis and drink my juice
being bored out of my mind.
My Sweet Den Sister! I arrive a little late here in the day! My email notifier is not working correctly...BUT...let me offer this for future comfort!! There is at the drug store a wonderful product called nedi pot. It looks like a small plastic tea pot (or an alladins lamp) Check It Out!! You place saline solution in it & clean out sinus cavities with it. It is the most wonderful little thing to have. It helps people with alergies, colds, snoring....I love to use it from time to time & it really really feels good when you have a cold....My Blessings Always
Love Vickie
(There is also a power flush bottle one too!)
and no...it does not burn...feels good :)
Bless you! It's terrible to be ill, especially on a nice, warm sunny day. But if it's any consolation to you, I enjoyed your poem! Please keep on writing...I'm sending a burst of positive energy your way, my dear. I pray you'll be feeling better soon....
O, ick; sorry you're not feeling well, Barbie. I hope you feel better soon; you are in my prayers/thoughts! I know how it is; I've been there once; not fun!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
Questions, unquestioned discoveries, and answers in parable and rhyme…. This collection records a journey starting with a 1960s retrospective and the first man on the moon, moving to a new millennium welcomed in with a terrorist spin, family crises,
