A Lost Day

Posted on August 4, 2024 by daisypeasblossom

I am having a Lost Day. I lost sleep because it got too cold for my fan last night. I’ve lost a bag of glass bottles. (I know I had it yesterday.) I’ve lost my phone. (Yes, I had it when I woke up. I know I didn’t flush it down the toilet, I didn’t wash it in the washing machine. Fortunately, it is set for the alarm to go off in about five minutes.) And I must have lost track of days, because I didn’t make my blog post for Off-Season Nano yesterday. The cats have put my universe on the floor. So I will clean house, and see if I can recover this Lost Day.

The alarm goes off! I find my phone. Things are looking up. Perhaps I can recover this lost day.
