Contributing factors

There are several factors that have helped in my achieving progress with assignments today:

1. The sun was out long enough to keep me warm while sitting in the garden.
2. Counting the frogs in the pond is a very peaceful and relatively quick study break.
3. Neil was able to sit outside with me while enjoying the sun so we weren't in seperate rooms feeling like we were neglecting each other.
4. Owen is much quieter when he sits outside with us.
5. A laptop is a student's best friend on a sunny day.
6. We're leaving in less than 48 hours and I have definite goals to accomplish before then. Just say no to holiday guilt.
