NO BORED GAME

Monday Nov. 13, 2017


Today is a work day.

Today is a vacation day.

Today is a volunteer day.

Today is a retirement day.

Today is a diagnosis day.

Today is a play hookey day.

Today is a get out of jail free day.

Today is a hide under the bed day.

Today is a run away from home day.

Today is a better day than yesterday.

Today is a get a clean-bill-of-health day.

Today is a far worse day than yesterday.

Today is a go to jail day, go directly to jail.

Try it – have a day which is just one thing.
