Day 6 (Round 2)
A friend had an itchy back; so I scratched it.
I gave my producer a hard time; later, this proved to be a good thing, especially when she informed me actors don't need to memorize their lines for The Vagina Monologues. Then we realized I was missing a vital bit of information for the script. So we got to rehash the production, and now it's much simpler much to our relief.
Then I was able to entice the one kitty that refuses to come inside-- to come inside. I even got to give her a cuddle. She's 18 this month. I hope she decides to settle down this year and accept our invitations to come in out of the cold.
The simple gives are easier. I can scratch another back any day.

Though I'm having some rough days this round, I think this is a worthwhile Idea and hope to continue additional rounds as well.
