The exercise:

Write about: it's been a while.

Miles returned to school this morning after missing the last 9 days. He asked if he could go last night, which we felt was a pretty good sign. But we figured he could just go for half a day to ease back in, and he wanted to go for the whole day.

So I brought him his lunch just before noon to see how he was doing and he had zero interest in coming home. He was certainly pretty tired this evening, but I am feeling grateful to have finally reached this stage of his recovery.

Write about something that is: long.

Board days are long days. Feel like I'm getting the hang of it now though, with this being my third already.

Your prompt today: it's been too long.

Mine:

On my commute to work this morning I got off my bus at the Skytrain station and went up the stairs to the platform level. Once up there I looked to my left and my first reaction was, "What the hell is that?"

I thought someone had setup a spotlight a little ways down the track. It took a few moments to realize that it was just the sun peeking between the horizon and the clouds.

I think we've had a bit too much rain here lately.
