MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #47

“Raindrops keep falling on my head…”

Raindrops on the Window (Mundane Monday 2016-02-22) One

Grey, greyest, black
Raindrops falling on my back
The winter month giving no slack
Snow, hail and rain, all neatly stacked
Like a conspiracy by the gods of weather
Nothing to do but to find some shelter

In a split screen
The presented scene
Rarely seen
Could it be…
…Sunshine?

Rainy Suburbia (Daily Photo)

“Welcome to sunny suburbia!”
They said

“Stay a while, take a load off”
They said

“It’s pretty and white, the sun shining so bright!”
They said

“Bah Humbug!”
I said

Sounded more, like a tall tale
Or urban a legend, set to fail!

As the rain came pouring down
And not a single dry spot could be found
I felt like the sideshow clown
On my face, an permanent painted frown

“Oh, well, when in Rome…”
I thought

Sitting in my recliner
Cozy, lazy and bundled up
Sipping on my warm cider
I held up my cup
Saluted towards the window
For all the daring weirdos
Coming out from their hides
And venturing to cold outside

And I said:
“Cheers!”

MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #45

“Mondays are mundane, like Tuesdays minus 24 hours. ”

Window View

Cozy, comfy, homey
Life is running slowly
The view today snowy
The wind outside blowy
Staying inside,
Without a sorry

“Never trust a computer you can’t throw out a window” Steve Wozniak

Window View

In the early morning hours
As I am jumping into my car
I look out the window
Only to find the moon
Brightening my path

Arriving at the office
To an early morning meeting
I left without eating
So just coffee must do
As I listen to the others
Playing their part
In this life we know as office

I let my eyes wander
Towards the closest window
Only to find
A most beautiful sunrise
Sky painted red
But here inside instead
The only view for me
Is through the peephole
Known as a window
But oh, what a view

Window view

Outside it’s cool and crispy
The clouds are hanging low
It’s just another day in January
With quite a lot of snow
Sitting in my home office
The images quite flawless
Admiring the window views
In my hand my favourite brew

“Monday is great if I can spend it in bed. I’m a man of simple pleasures, really” Arthur Darvill

Mundane Monday

Just another Manic Monday
Certainly not my fun day
Back in the office again
Simply cannot explain
It just happens
Always after weekend
Leaving me baffled
I cannot help myself
And leaves me overwhelmed
I just end up here
In this stratosphere
Called work

“Nothing screws up your Friday like realizing it’s Thursday”

Today, Thursday…

…The sun appeared
The flowers on the table
Had started to bloom
Snapped a few pics

“Nothing screws up your Friday like realizing it’s Thursday”

Thursday, 19th of November, Part One

Today, Thursday

Early morning
I woke up
Showered
Looked out the window
It was really dark
The rain had continued
All through the night
Went outside for a while
Snapped a few pics

Worked, worked, worked
Meetings and then some
Had a snack break
The sun appeared
The flowers on the table
Had started to bloom
Snapped a few pics

Worked some more
Afternoon
It was time for a
Splash in the pool
Left to take the dive
Had a few minutes to enjoy the nature
Snapped a few pics

Back home
More work
More meetings
Urgency
Finally,
Working day ended
It was really dark outside
Put out some Christmas decor
Snapped a few pics
