You are also right about your assessment on who is going to be burdened with the few extra hours, and it’s not Sun. She’s going to shine. Do wish you all the very best and hope you manage to leave an hour or two a week open for nothingness.

Nola. That extra six hours trapped in the office is huge. I would assume that there may be some time creep heading your way, too. Thirty hours gradually turns into 32, then 34, and so on. Constant vigilance will be required to avoid independent Nola's untimely demise.
