Winding down, finally

I just finished working for the day. I need to have my contract deliverables ready for Wednesday plus start to formulate my first contract for the new year before the person who oversees my gov't contracts goes away for all but 3 days in December. I probably could have stopped at a more usual time and still have been able to get it all done tomorrow, but I was working on the child care paper and had a flow going - I was in the zone - so I didn't want to stop until I hit a wall. That would be now - the lit review's written but still needs rewrites and edits, and here is where I find I cannot go on. It has been a fascinating, complex and difficult paper to write so far. Research is such an amazing field, with so much to take in, and so much that can inform and improve our lives if correctly applied.

But now, sleep....
