Ah! Air

Sputter and start. Stop. Sputter. Start.

Two unplanned interruptions on the first day. One on the second day.

One overcooked steak. Two undercooked pork-chops.

Sputter. Start. Stop.

Swim lessons signed up just before classes filled.

Start. Write. Write. Forget time. Late to pick kids up from first day of camp.

A spectacular summer night lightning show that went on for a couple of hours. Followed by rain and tornado warning. Decisions to let kids sleep or bundle into the basement. Basement won. Rain stopped five minutes later.

Write. Think. Write. Backspace. Plan. Write. Delete. Read.

Resist temptation to read email, check facebook, write blog posts.

Two out of three.

Back to work.
