when it's all too hard
crawl into bed
pull the covers over your head
when its all too hard
immerse yourself in a hot bubble bath
by candle light
when it's all to hard
try to sleep to the soft notes
of a ginger puss purring
when it's still too hard
pick up a phone
you will feel better
when you hear his voice



Oh, nice! Especially the final reveal as to what is too hard.
ReplyDeleteLovely! I'd go for a tabby cat purring though as Barry (my husband's cat) isn't ginger. I do love the last line indeed.
ReplyDeleteNice one. Complete with pics.
ReplyDeleteMuch💛love
Love these:

It is always nice--and healthy--to have ways to deal with life's difficulties. If not they can overwhelm us to the point of insanity (or depression).
ReplyDeleteLike Rosemary, I also like the way you got us to the end.
Thanks for the lovely solutions. Next time it's all too hard, I'll know exactly what to do!
ReplyDeleteThis is purrrrr-fect. Sorry, could not resist.
ReplyDeleteAll wonderfully comforting ideas. Love the purring kitty at the end.
ReplyDeleteI have indulged in number 1 & 2 when it all seems like too much. One is easier as you don't have to get out of bed.
ReplyDeleteThis is great advice: I've been doing a lot of this lately as winter draws in!
ReplyDeleteAll good ideas!
ReplyDeleteThose "all too hard" times come much too often...
ReplyDeleteVery nice. :)
