…rearranging the disaligned.
A woman like that is misunderstood.
I have been her kind.

My ADHD allowed me to complete the first step, today. Screenshot the calendar. I’m sure I won’t look at it after today. :frowning::folded_hands:t2::latin_cross:

Day 23 done! The only reason I was able to get it done was because I didn’t want to miss the check-in here.

Day 23 done as well - and I will have a bonus training session tomorrow morning!

Helen Dudley, Song

A few more windy days
Must come and go their ways.
And we will walk,
My love and I
Beneath the amber-dripping boughs.

What about this? Almost some traditional start into the year.

I’ve been debating this for some time now. I think I’m in. It’s too much of a tradition to not do it

It’s a rest day, but I had a smashing gym sesh with Stormin’ Norman this morning, so I’m feeling fit!

Helen Maria Williams (not an American poet, so out of keeping with my efforts this month), To Mrs K____, On Her Sending Me an English Christmas Plum-Cake at Paris

The early scenes, when life was new;
When memory knew no sorrows past,
And hope believed in joys that last! —

Kind of failed the second half of the December challenge, but I’m definitely jumping back in. Sounds awesome!!

Day 26 done with a rousing gym sesh after work.

Mark Wagenaar, Meanwhile the elephants

… the elephants walk thirty kilometers
to find the house of their keeper
who died last night, to keep a vigil,
an honor guard of fifteen-thousand-pound
bodies, they wait all night

Here’s to the wind blowing against this lighted house and to the vast, windless spaces between the stars.

Day 28 is a rest day, so that was easy! (Still went to the gym and did more solid core work, out of guilt mostly).

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr, The Chambered Nautilus

Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul,
As the swift seasons roll!
Leave thy low-vaulted past!
Let each new temple, nobler than the last,
Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast,
Till thou at length art free,
Leaving thine outgrown shell by life’s unresting sea!
