Day 1103: Thankful

[eve_prime]

The first thing I said (well, typed) when I woke today was that today was going to be a GREAT day! I knew I could finish the first full draft of this paper and get it sent to the person who's been waiting impatiently for it. I'd told him I'd get it to him when he returned from vacation, but that was yesterday, and there was still a lot to do. And I did get it done, just before midnight, but it was grueling. I sure learned a lot of Excel tricks these past few weeks.

I did take breaks today. I even managed to watch a Monk episode with my meals - I've been trying to watch them all but got stuck about a year ago. In the evening I took a brisk walk to the neighborhood school and back, and I even went shopping with J at the supermarket before it closed - we were in and out in under 20 minutes. I've been so busy that I didn't even post about the book I finished last night!

I am sure that tomorrow I'll wake up exhausted, all this adrenaline having worn off. That'll be just fine with me - I'll relax and read.

Nice to have days like that!

It was pretty intense! One thing I like, though, is that I was fully in control of my own time.

What a relief to get that done!
Yes, just relax now...

Ha, he's already sent it back for me to do the next round. But my three days off were great!

Oh no! Well...I do hope it is paying well, yikes!

Yes, and it's good to have some income, after long months without any.
