Aug. 13th, 2023 08:20 pmThis was such an exhausting weekend. I really need to stop pushing myself.
Like, there's always something. Something that needs to be done, someone demanding my time, work that needs my attention. And then the next thing I know, it's 8PM on a Sunday, and I'm still not finished everything, and I haven't really taken time for myself at all.
Partly this weekend is just crazy because that's how it shook out - appointments that have to be done and couldn't be rescheduled, and then that fundraiser (I could have said no, but everyone else was also saying no, and like... I would have felt bad if I didn't go) plus mom needing help with a thing and so on and so forth but ugh. Just, ugh.
I know that if I keep this up, I'm going to crash and burn, ha. That would be... bad. But man, there's just so much stuff. So many appointments. And more this week!!! One medical thing, and one Pride YMM thing (I could skip it if I had to, but...) And also judo. And coursework. And preparation stuff that will have to get done some time before travelling in September. And so on.
I really would have liked to work on fic this weekend. Especially the zine fic - that really needs to get finished - but also one of the many RoBul wips that I have on the go. And... I recently found out that the SSSS 10-year anniversary is Nov 01; I really would like to finish my final WIP in time to post it for that date.
...And here I am whining in my journal instead of doing the dishes. And they really need to get done tonight, because they can't go in the dishwasher. (And, and, and. It's always something.) Ugh. I guess I'll just pull my pants up and do it. But I'm really going to have to make an active effort to like, slow down as much as possible soon, because otherwise hoooo boy will it ever be messy.
