So my crafting mission for day 6 did not go as planned. I laid down, told myself I was just going to sleep for a little nap... and woke up about 5 hours later. After midnight. After all my goals for the day (Spanish every day at Duolingo - I was on a streak of about 48 days of faithfully learning Spanish, AEDM, writing a poem...) were all past their deadline.
I'm really serious about my goals this time, however, and chose not to let my setback take me back. I got up this morning, went to my weekly Dungeons & Dragons game, and started working on a scarf I had started a while back. I got a lot done, and then managed to leave my book with the pattern at home when I dropped off my D&D stuff and went to a friend's house for the rest of the weekend. Oh well, maybe my husband will get it when he goes home to feed the cats tomorrow.
Determination
Struggling day after day
Clawing your way upward
Obstacles coming into your path
Stones falling
Bloodied hands
Each inch gained a small miracle

Another great poem!
Wow, you must have really needed the sleep. Sometimes our bodies know better than we do.
I'm glad you are not letting your setback bring you down!:-)
