Friday Afternoon

April 24, 2026April 24, 2026 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

Longest afternoon
Only two days till Monday
Enjoy while you can

Virtual Monday

April 21, 2026 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

Taking Monday off

Avoids the Monday blues.

In theory, at least.

In most cases (like today),

Blues just move to Tuesday.

New Slogan

April 15, 2026April 30, 2026 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

One famous Texas slogan is
“Don’t Mess With Texas.”
(It was an anti-litter campaign.)
After driving from Dallas to Ft Davis,
The new State slogan should be:
“Texas. It’s really a two-day drive.”

Birthday

April 7, 2026April 30, 2026 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

At a certain age,
You really don’t want to have
Reminders of your birthday.
I’m old, I don’t need reminding.
However, if you remind me
To give me a birthday discount,
I will give you a pass.
Especially if it’s a good discount.

Monday

April 6, 2026April 30, 2026 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

Meetings start early
They seem to go all day long
May need therapy

Medieval Times

April 5, 2026April 30, 2026 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

The King and Queen in attendance.
Knights are jousting.
Falcons flying to hunt.
Serving wenches tipped on Venmo.
Something’s amiss.

Coffee

April 25, 2024April 25, 2024 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

Brewing. Smells. Waiting.
The longest time of the day.
Soon will be awake.

Sleep

April 23, 2024April 24, 2024 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

Sleep like a baby.
Wake up hourly, Wet, Crying.
Some meetings are bad.

Sunday

April 21, 2024April 23, 2024 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

Sunday, a long day.
A time to plan for next week.
Known as panic time.

Vacation

April 18, 2024April 22, 2024 ~ John Ellsworth ~ Leave a comment

Six long days away

Mountain, desert, river, sleep

May need some time off
