Adjust (Day 16)

I thought I could make a change overnight - to adjust to a new pattern quickly.

I did OK for a few days, but old habits die hard. They say 21 (or maybe 30) days to a new habit. And if you fall off the wagon just pick up and start again. It took me 30 years, but I have finally mostly kicked the bad habit of biting my fingernails - trying to keep them polished in some fashion seems to have helped a lot.

I thought that Write 31 Days might get me in a better writing habit. It hasn't really, yet, but there have been a few spurts, so I see some slow progress. Maybe it has been enough to adjust me back into the Five Minute Friday ON FRIDAY plan. Regardless, it;s been a good test - to see what I have in these fingers; in this brain - waiting to get out on the screen. And it's also provided some great discussions with the kids. And provided a distraction in the days of baseball absence. WHile I am not always writing, there has been A LOT to read.

Perhaps even enough to carry me through all the way until pitchers and catchers report.
