I’ve been letting in my readers on my process of writing a new original song with the title “What’s Keeping Me Up Is What’s Going Down.”
I’m letting in additions to that song, like this:
What’s freaking me out is what I’m letting in.
I see no good reason to be wearing a grin.
Noises begin and reach a painful din.

What I’m letting in, here and now, includes all these images from yesterday:
I’m letting in
- the good news that my INR is a perfect 3.0,
- the unusual structures of some hearts,
- more love,
- the challenges of being an adult,
- hope,
- pickleball paddles,
- global warming,
- my poor penmanship,
- animals,
- dirt cake, and
- the reality that Michael mistakenly set the alarm for 8 PM, so I need to run to get to work on time.
I’m letting in “I’m Letting in the Sunshine” by Piney Gir:
What are you letting in? I hope you have room to let in my gratitude to you and to all who help me create these posts.

This weekend I went to the Southern Festival Of Books and, among other things, listened to a concert by a local group called The Ukedelics. I shared a little of your story with them and they were happy to hear about another ukulele player. They also invited me to join them and said if I wanted to try I could check out a ukulele from the library.
What you let in you also share with the rest of us.
I’m letting in all the wonderfulness of this comment, Chris.
I’m letting in your ray of sunshine .. Have a nice day, Ann
I’m letting in your warm comment!
Thanks for sharing you shiny day, Ann 😀
Thanks for sharing this shiny comment, Irene!
What you let in is up to you, here it is another very warm day and also a sad day it is my Dad’s birthday he would have been 77
I’m letting in your comment, Joanne, and please let in my condolences for the loss of your father.
What a nice ray of sunshine your blog is! And I do love Piney Gir. I need to check out her new album.
I love letting in the the sunshine you bring, Lisa.
I do applaud your additional lyrics, Ann. I think they resonate with many of us, frankly! And to that, I’d really like a t-shirt that says “I just can’t be an adult today.” It’s where I’m at!
I love where you’re at, my friend, no matter what day it is.
