Swimming through the sludge

[dolorosa_12]

I started the working week feeling crushingly tired, and things just got more overwhelming from there. I feel as if I'm constantly putting out fires in about five different parts of my life, and every time it looks as if things have calmed down, a new thing bursts into flames.

For obvious reasons, I'm not going to be hugely chatty here for the next little while — if you commented in the past couple of days, unfortunately I'm unlikely to get to it with a response, and I'm sorry.

Now I'm going to do some anti-anxiety yoga and watch Peaky Blinders (which, while not exactly calming, does at least have the reassuring effect of reminding me that at least my life isn't as stressful as that of a 1920s Birmingham gangster).

Peaky Blinders is certainly a distracting and captivating entertainment! And I see that the 6th season is about to release. I enjoyed the confluence of S5 with actual historical people and events quite a lot.

I'm so sorry you're having a rough time and really hope you find some comfort and distraction before totally collapsing. ;; Sometimes there is some reassurance in knowing things are worse for someone else.
