I have been thinking lately about transitions. I used to think of 
transitions as merely something to be "got through." Now, they seem an 
important component of productivity and even happiness.

Our everyday routines are full of transitions--between sleep and 
wakefulness, work and meals, work and play, etc. The more chores I do 
during transitions, the more I accomplish overall. So the longer 
transitions take, the more productive they can become. Less detritus 
accumulates on my to-do list.

Transitions also have a vital role to play in large projects such as Leo. 
As I think back on the sabbatical, I see that its main benefit was a 
transition away from stale programming chores. I put many issues on hold. 
Many issues will never get done. 

Freed from these chores, I continued to work on Leo with renewed enthusiasm 
and energy.

Now Leo faces another transition--the transition to vs-code. I have begun 
this transition by making vs-code look and act just as I want. This 
personal transition will likely take a week or two. Adapting leoInteg and 
Leo to each other may take years. That's fine with me.
