I lost the spot where the first finger is supposed to go

I guess it was Heifetz who said that "after 1 day not practicing, I know. After 2 days of not practicing, the critics know. And after 3 days of practicing the audience knows."

I had to take a day off on Saturday to be the mom taxi for the various kid-related activities around town. No time to practice. I thought I was solid on the fingerboard after my circle on Friday. Today, I spent 15 minutes just trying to find my first finger spot on the C string, first position. Sigh.
