Why do I write more on my days with work rather than my days off? (lemmygrad.ml)

My job is very dirty and labour intensive so i don't understand why I make 1000 words a day on those days, but 200 words a day on weekends.

My guess would be on the days you work, your body can stay in a working mode/mindset, whereas when you try to do so on non-work days, you have to force yourself into that mindset, which requires a lot of self control. It also might be your body telling you to take a break, and you're overriding that feeling by writing.
