365 Writing Prompts: Seven days

You wake up tomorrow morning to find all your plans have been cancelled for the next seven days and $10,000 on your dresser. Tell us about your week.

I was shocked to know my plans for the week were cancelled, what I did not understand how the money on my dresser will compensate for the seven days I will lose.

I sat down to see if I can get another appointment with my physician. The cranky secretary told me, tough luck there is no opening, I have to wait for six months.

Next plan was to go to the hairdresser, she declined to give another appointment, she also found a large sum of money on her dresser, she plans to take a world tour, it is such a golden opportunity she has to use this to travel and relax.

I dislike disappointments, this time I hoped the secretary of the Ophthalmologist will be kind and will give me an appointment within two weeks. She declined saying: “I am sorry but Dr. Macky is booked for all of this year, if you want I can give you an appointment for 2016, remember to ask your family physician for a new  referral.”

Great I thought, now what will I do, suddenly I heard a teeny tiny voice, “Use me, take a trip to Disneyland, you’ll have fun.”

Really I thought take a trip, what about the appointments that are cancelled, I won’t be able to get a new appointment until another several months. I was in a disgusting mood, I yelled. “Why don’t you disappear?”

As soon as I completed my sentence, I saw the dollar bills make a swishy sound and disappeared.

“Well they were not mine in the first place, good they can entertain someone else,” I declared!

Writing Prompt: Seven Days

When we make  plans for doing something such as go on a trip to Europe, there are a lot of things we have to think about. These are some of the important things we need to take care of: informing our neighbor and leaving the keys of the house to her, watering indoor plants, picking up my mail, calling the kennel to leave the pets for a week.

For the trip we’d buy our tickets,  pack our clothes, and book the hotel.

Another thing is we’d make a list of all the places we’d like to visit. A lot of planning is necessary so that we do not miss anything. When everything is ready and our mind is ready to travel,it’s very disappointing to know the next morning all our plans have been cancelled.

The ten thousand dollars in compensation, this is why I think the money is left on my dresser,what other reason could there be for  cancellation of my plans, but it is not enough to satisfy me. I’d be thinking about all the places I couldn’t see, people I was unable to meet, foods I didn’t get to eat, the photos I was planning to take. These are some of the things I’d miss.

I know I’ll complain the whole week for the cancellation and then move on,because I’ll have to.
