Goals, there are things that I want to get done and it seems like I am truly excellent at covering these things over with tasks upon tasks upon tasks. Then I look at the mountain and curl up in bed. I am not entirely coninced this is simply The Swamp, I am making such progress … Read More
I was doing so well with the swimming and then Pandemic. 1. To write every day (almost managed this and then bereavement left me unable to do basically anything last year) 2.
