Part of Slice of Life by Two Writing Teachers March Slice a Day Challenge! I’m slicing every day this month. Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
So. March again.
I have forgotten how to write on command like this. Daily.
I searched for slices today, and I wonder if maybe it’s harder now.
There are so many stories each day that aren’t my own to tell.
I walked down the steps, laughing at myself for being scared to fall down the steep steps… scared enough to put my hand on the railing – the one that hundreds of kids’ germy hands have touched.
“A slice!” I think.
Maybe.
I walk out of the building with a teacher I’m getting to know this year, and we chat about our spring break plans, and thank each other for the great work these days.
“Not really a slice.” I think. Although it was a nice chat.
I walk to my car, and realize it is almost pinned in by the car behind it.
I hate backing up so close to another car, but thank goodness for the backup camera.
It’s touch and go. But then, I go.
I search the street as I drive for a little slice of life.
At home, my kids have slices. But they aren’t mine to tell.
So. March again.
This is going to take practice.
