KC trip

With a night's stay, I would like to examine all of the KC things I still want to do. This would include journalling, as well as time to type/write.


Idea

I graded non-stop today, from 8am through 5pm--and I caught a strange second wind. I struggled at noon, when I normally would switch location, but by 1pm I was coasting. At 2pm, I was on fire! I really am on a kind of high.

I would like to see if I coud creatively do this. Of course, having a plan in the works where I shift to something else if I feel stuck would need in place. Maybe different files open?

One could include using books?

Or an immersive stroll?

Add this for one of the days.
