Sometimes you think “different” that will be easy to write on. My original plan was to include this word in different ways to study history. But I changed that to Fantastic Ways to Study History. So then I though oh, I have two many tabs open in my browser so I can do “Closing out Different tabs”, but well, when I sat down tonight this poem started running through my head and so here it is. 🙂 Some days run different than planned

Today went different than I thought.
Rushing out the door.
“I’m late! I’m late!” T’was my only thought.
Calling a friend to let her know,
She said “We’re not meeting today,
Don’t you know?”
10 minutes from home
Relief flooded my bones.
“I’m not late.
and I’m tired.
I get to go home!!!”
Home a tired hubby does arise
“You’re home?” he commented with surprise.
Hugs and time to spend together
Then a boy home from school,
All the better.
Chatter I love it
Twixt a boy and a man
Talking about the things
In the land
Politics, war, men of faith too
Mothers’ heart listens
Pops in a word or two.
Later that day
Work all do.
Dad at the mill,
Lad at his schooling.
Mom blogs, and there’s gardening too!
At the end of the day
Tired muscles sit,
This went much different
Than I did anticipate.
So the lad prayed
O’er our evening meal.
Helping mom out err the food grow cold.

What a wonderful synopsis of your day. It sounds like it turned out just lovely, though tiring.
It was a good day, a very good day actually. 🙂
