In response to Di’s prompt challenge:

https://wp.me/p3RSgb-w1r

I woke up feeling jovial,
despite my reflection looking
like it had been dipped in jelly
and lightly confused by the lighting.

Someone once mentioned jaundice
in passing,
and now every time the room is too yellow
I squint at myself like a concerned amateur doctor.

Am I ill?
No.
Am I dramatic?
Absolutely.

So I wobbled on with jelly-like confidence,
smiled through the questionable glow,
and stayed jovial anyway —
because happiness doesn’t require perfect lighting
or a medically accurate mirror.

Sometimes you just jiggle forward,
laugh at yourself,
and call it a good day.

    Thanks for joining in Maggie.
    Most mornings I don’t want to get out of my warm bed, especially if Maya’s got me up in the middle of the night.

        Thank you. She’s having a bit of a rough time with her season, but the UTI seem to have cleared up. Lots of love and fuss for her.
