Almost as an afterthought, between two students.
I had gone to bed too late again but did almost get enough sleep. But sleeping a little longer and then starting my day slower also means that everything my husband and I do in the mornings will push up to the immutable deadline of teaching the first student of the day.
I did not do anything writing-related in the morning but I did the rest of the morning routine. Talked with my husband, did all the dishes (too late) and went out to the nearby supermarket. Came back to am extremely stressed husband who was still in the middle of cooking at a time where he should have eaten already.
Lunch was good but didn’t quite come out as he wanted:

Husband went off right after that but I leaned back, started reading for a bit, ate some gummy bears and then started playing my video game because Thursday is the one day where I start teaching late.
I taught one student, then had an hour to get things moving on book 2. Turns out since I had already decided on all the important bits I could actually get it done in that time. I formatted the ebook and the print book, looked up all the keywords and categories I wanted to use, edited the blurb, uploaded everything, found three typos that were introduced by spellcheck, corrected said typos, uploaded the book again and, voilà, the ebook was ready. Hurray!
It might take a bit to be live in the stores but still.
I taught two more students, thought briefly about maybe going to the BTS concert in London because a friend of mine said she might have an extra ticket, decided against it, was happy that my last student canceled, had a bit of a break between teaching and Zoom and then I could finally exhale.
I started writing this post, made a list for today (with my new fountain pen that arrived that day which is very cute, I love it) and didn’t do much else. The boy had done the dishes so, phew.
And now for Friday! Cleaning, teaching and exercise.
