Here it is Dec. 1st. and I am so happy I am a so well organized person. I went to the Lab at 7:30am. Than served a brunch at 10:30am. in my house, had an afternoon party at 1:30 pm. and was out the door to my husband's Christmas party at 4 pm. Had a blast yet I looked forward to the comfort of my bed when we arrived home, as I lay my head on my pillow I realized there are only so many HOURS IN A DAY.

Hours In A Day

You get up early in the morning,
Errands to run and people to see.
Wondering of the hours in a day,
Knowing there’s only one of me.
How can I stretch the hours,
How can I get these things all done.
When there are only so many hours,
And I see I am still only one.

Clean the floors, make the bed,
Tend to the children who are at play,
Run the washer then cook a meal,
Stretch the hours that’s in just one day.
Company’s coming within the hour,
No time to rest a party’s going on,
You put too much into your day,
Too late to say you’ve done wrong.

Share a smile, put your best clothes on,
It’s time to go out for a night of fun,
You’ve ran all your errands and entertain,
Wish you could rest, no time to remain.
People compliment on the way you look,
What make up can hide, you won’t say,
Looking forward to your  comfy bed,
There’s only so many Hours in a day.

You got that right dear cuz and when you run out of steam and run out of hours it's time to sneak out of time for a bit and just smile over a cup of tea and a good friend.

Rose,

Sounds like you had a busy (and successful) day! You are so right: there aren't enough hours in a day, especially when you have so much to do! Very well penned; brava~ Now take a well deserved break; you've earned it!

Rose, and some days there just aren't enough hours to do what we think needed to have been done. Know that feeling soooooooo well. This poem depicts a hectic day, but when we lay down in bed, we know we've done our best. Now it's time to get some rest.

God bless you Kathy

Rose, life can be hectic...but don't you think we all bring some of it on ourselves! Your life appears to be full of giving to everyone & your words speaks often of your committment to others and especially your wonderful husband. Thanks to God for the energy & health He gives to you so you can accomplish so much. A great write.

What she intended to say was, " I drink to much wine and lost track of the time".
Still Love you and notice I didn't mention anything about the type of party you held at 1:30, that's for another time....
Excellent poem, as per normal.
