Discretionary time averaged 5 hours / workday, 8.7 hours / weekend day (more weekend time taken up by cooking sprint). Less discretionary time overall, but more time on workdays. Interesting combination. Sleep back up to eight hours a day, stdev of 1.2 hours. Slightly tired, but well-fed. Possible RSI twinges, maybe aggravated by typing sprint during transcription? May need to take more breaks.
Good week! Looking forward to focused hacking during the long weekend.
