Hours ago I read this, and just ran off. Now that I’ve got some perspective, and humor, back–I can really appreciate it. “Even trouble has a shelf-life”–that is priceless, Mel!!
Trouble has a shelf-life. I love that line…and that truth. Lovely poem, Melody!
Thanks Lori!
Good to know about the shelf life. Some days you begin to wonder …

Great wisdom here, Melody!
Thanks Holly! Are you fully recuperated yet??

You mostly can tell by the smell that it has expired… hehe 🙂
Oh yes, The SMELL!
