Yesterday felt like Groundhog Day. I woke in the notorious Cherry Tree Inn to repeat the same series of challenges I faced on Monday. My to-do list remained unchanged, and the hamster wheel clamored and squeaked as I attempted to make it conform to my will. Some days we go nowhere, except to take one step forward followed by two steps backward. Hurry up and wait, do not pass Go, and forget your two hundred dollars. You are so out of luck. I have developed a strategy to help me master the circumstance that tries my soul. I smile and endeavor to salvage even one scrap of happiness. If I can’t complete my tasks, then maybe I can help someone else.

No matter the challenges and the obstacles blocking my way, I maintain the item at the top of my list as a non-negotiable. Yesterday I wrote 411 words.

Did you write yesterday?
