Partly because I’m halfway through. Partly because the kids get out an hour early, and the teachers mostly go away, and therefore I am free (mostly) to get some of my piled-up crap dealt with.
That free feeling of having somewhat cleared the decks carries over when I get to come home to enough leftovers it would be silly to cook dinner.
And that translates to 1,717 words on my NaNovel. Yay!Â
