End Notes:
I love work-from-home days when it’s just me, my cats, a few cups of tea, and a list of do-able projects. While I don’t dress up for a day at home, I do get dressed, and it makes a world of difference to me mentally. It gives my day a definite start, it makes me unashamed to answer the door when the mail lady knocks, and it helps me feel productive rather than lazy. Not bad for a couple of knit jersey pieces!
