Work Wednesday: Distractions

My soul longs for this solitude.

The other day, I made a commitment to write five hundred words before I would walk the dogs.

Dogs: Why do we have to suffer?

I did manage to get both the words on paper and the dogs walked. But since then, life has been all about ridiculous distractions. Important things that have to be done, tugging at me almost hourly.

Including an emergency visit to the ophthalmologist to check for a detached retina (thankfully, it was something less serious that still needs to be addressed)

Meanwhile, my brain keeps drifting dangerously into can I/do I want to continue to write thoughts.

It would be a dark day for me if I put my pen down.
