“Find your best time of the day for writing and write. Don’t let anything else interfere. Afterwards it won’t matter to you that the kitchen is a mess.”
~ Esther Freud
Please write your Slice, share your link, and give at least three comments to other Slicers.
I realized today that I forgot to post my slice last night. I posted it to #sol15 but I guess I was so exhausted that I forgot the last step. Here it is: Creating a Summer Bucket List=>http://beyondliteracylink.blogspot.com/2015/05/creating-summer-bucket-list.html.

I’m so sad that I missed last Tuesday. And I almost missed today! But I made it.
Today I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about a handful of people in my life who used to be vital in my life but suddenly turned against me. This poem is for all of them.
