An orange hazy sky
With hints of burnt ash greets me
July is on fire
July 2, 2023
Dying newspapers
Local connections are lost
Fighting to survive
July 3, 2023
Summer was the break
School paused for a couple months
Not the same with work
July 4, 2023
Independence Day
Nation born from a revolt
Celebrate with bang
July 5, 2023
Pop went July 4th
Repeatedly once was dark
Happens every year
July 6, 2023
Unplanned trip to vet
Dog is simply not himself
Holding out hope though
July 7, 2023
Hardest call to make
Rest without pain forever
Will miss you Dexter
July 8, 2023
The hole in my heart
Can never be filled again
It is there from you
July 9, 2023
Emptiness abounds
Your presence was a constant
Think of you often

Connected to France
Pixelated video
Katie from Europe
July 11, 2023
One foot at a time
Hard grind is ahead of me
Forward is a pace
July 12, 2023
Hungry avians
Consume seed at a fast rate
I JUST filled it up
July 13, 2023
Restless nights abound
Unable to quiet thoughts
Got to get more sleep
July 14, 2023
Our son comes back home
Drum major camp now fulfilled
But such a late flight
July 15, 2023
Unsettled routine
Disrupted and changed last week
Drifting aimlessly
July 16, 2023
Europe traveler
Back home from her adventures
The stories now told
July 17, 2023
A little brown box
Memorializes you
Placed on the mantel
July 18, 2023
Egoscue method
Willing to give it a try
Can’t hurt at this point
July 19, 2023
Hump day they call it
Mid work week but two are left
Await the weekend
July 20, 2023
Season draws closer
Soon gridiron awakes again
As always: Go Deacs!
July 21, 2023
Jury duty mail
Summons me for a Tuesday
But Pearl Jam concert
July 22, 2023
Oppenheimer show
Movie time on the big screen
Enjoyed the story
July 23, 2023
Both doors are now closed
The familiar occupants
Slumber behind them
July 24, 2023
Sadness is a fog
Hanging around you quite thick
One day it will lift
July 25, 2023
Heat of summer boils
Makes the outside forbidden
Inside I will stay
July 26, 2023
Student loan torture
Trying to minimize debt
A constant struggle
July 27, 2023
A farewell soiree
Wanted to thank the person
For the Lambeau trip

Gotcha day visit
Introduced myself to Moose
Weird to hear Grandpa

Father Son lunch chat
Adult topics were the theme
He is growing up

NightBEAT Drum Corps Show
Presidential suite seating
An experience
July 31, 2023
Ceiling spot stain source
An expert called into look
Roof trouble it seems
