Day ten, NaHaiWriMo, Day off

Did various things at home today like making BBQ sauce for the meat I cooked yesterday. Laundry. Continued to stick black squares on the wall. Wrote a few unrelated haiku.

stillness of waiting
the busyness of waiting
no answer or end.

the old drafty house
where I live too far away
and not far enough.

small squares, adding up,
join the others on the wall.
hoping it will work.

the purring cat kneads
and turns around next to me
compact hip warmer

The rhododendron
leaves unfurled in winter sun
filled with chickadees.
