And Breathe
Oct. 4th, 2025 09:54 amWelp, I don't know what I am doing with Substack. All I wanted to do was post the poem for Dad somewhere, and suddenly I'm in a world of buttons. Is it a newsletter, is it just posting, have I created two separate pages? Plus I am suddenly pursued by frankly implausible amounts of paperwork, mostly in Spanish on a very hard deadline. My Spanish is minimal, a testament to the fact that over 900 days on Duolingo amounts to very little if it's only one lesson a day.
I am very stressed and tired, but the good news is, if I get even more tired, I won't have enough energy to fret about my visit to Spain next week. Mum has started sending me messages again, but I am going to try not to answer because there is no room in my head for her babble about new disease X and why I should stay at home.
So I must think about other things this weekend. Great night with mates yesterday while Storm Amy raged outside, lots of laughter. Diet ruined.
