Cyber Monday was to be used to,
discount all that had been waiting.
But discounts were only for others,
after all the switch and baiting.

But Giving Tuesday came along,
requiring effort, not just a song,
took all day to be that kind,
everything else got behind.

Found just the right image,
to illustrate the new book,
sadly, copyright became a hook,
requiring another way to look.

Suddenly, all email disappeared,
it was all right there at the servers,
but mocked trying to retrieve her,
resisting even escalated saviors.

Late in the day, with much left to do,
the wheelchair does a loop de loo.
"Something is broken," she declares.
Right wheel just spinning in de air.

Ready to go and my billfold is missing,
strangers are blamed, she's hissing,
not at all in the usual strange places.
But right where it fell in my car.

Off to a routine dental appointment,
the ramp side door decided to jam.
Guys at the body shop were out to lunch.
Luckily, damn door worked on a hunch.

All will be fixed in due time,
in the meantime, my tongue entwined,
it is aggravating on this glue,
left over from what dentists do!

My week started out behind and then got worse. ;-)
