It’s not the first time I’ve slept so long, but it’s the first time I’ve done it and I feel pretty good waking up. I think after the couple of hard days of work and dealing with the tooth infection and getting beaten up by the antibiotics, my body caught a break. My shoulders hurt, but I feel well rested. I have my second jab of the vaccine later today though … will I still feel well rested then?

It’s my weekend now, and so it’s time to keep pushing through that slowly clearing tunnel and zip down the chute into wherever my writing takes me. I’m going to let my little writer’s mini-me figure out which project we should work on. I do need to read some more, so I might take a book with me for the observation time after my jab.
