Catch Up

When you can’t do question 1i), let alone 1ii), let alone questions 2) or 3), and have been trying to do so for over an hour – and when you couldn’t do the last homework either but had to work through with the solutions – and when you don’t even understand the lecture notes four lectures in – …

I am still trying to learn to spend time on my own in the house positively, and more importantly I am still trying to learn how to work again, as it’s something I basically haven’t been doing for eighteen months, and, well, you just get out of the habit. I’m doing a lot better than I thought I would, actually, but I think I still give up too easily when the going gets tough – and that’s still way too often. The pressure’s on, to say the least.

In other news, J continues to be wonderful, I’m doing quite a bit with Quaker Meeting (and seriously considering applying for membership; explanation may follow in a subsequent post), and my Mum thinks I’m bipolar (, which I think is utter rubbish). I got out my clarinet the other day and had no lip muscles left whatsoever.

And that’s about it, really! I need to go and make lunch and head out. Oh, except that when I have a chance I will take some pictures of my new house, because it’s kinda cool, and some pictures of the garment that I made the week before coming back to Durham and am so incredibly proud of!
