Well, vacation anyway.
I think this is the first time ever I’m satisfied with what I accomplished. No, I didn’t get all of the revisions in the computer. I ran into too many places where I hadn’t thought out my revisions (being in too much of a hurry to finish them) and I wasn’t willing to let it go like that just so I could say I was done. I did get through about fifty pages before that point, though.
Then I expanded my deadline by another week, and got off the computer for a bit. Bly comes home Tuesday. If I don’t want her getting right back on the plane (and I don’t!) I figured I better put some time in on the house.
And that’s what I did. The tree is gone, the needles swept up, the decorations put away. The kitchen is mopped, the hallway swept, the bathroom cleaned. The family room has been rearranged to make space for the exercise machine Bly and I keep talking about.
The house looks good, my laundry is done, I’ve got lunch and dinner planned for tomorrow, I am clean, I know where all my out-the-door stuff is…all that’s left is to go to bed.
NOW. Before I blow all my prep with not-enough sleep.
G’night all.
