Finals were over in early May, and I was looking forward to long, warm days with time to go to work and cook and dance and read. Unfortunately, it’s been mostly in the 60s with cloudy and sometimes rainy weather nearly every day. Having a migraine every afternoon has made me pretty miserable and kept me from accomplishing much of anything.
My summer work list is a lot more daunting now that I’ve got more than a month less to do it all than I’d planned.
And my mother is coming to visit, which I’m pretty concerned about. My mother is a fundamentalist Christian and chooses to ignore the parts of my life that don’t agree with her beliefs. The person she says she loves and misses doesn’t actually exist. I’m wondering how long she’ll be able to maintain the delusion when directly confronted with the things and people I surround myself with.
While it’s necessary to brace for impact as it were, don’t close yourself off entirely from realizing that people can reverse judgments and learn to accept new ideas. Maybe this is an opportunity rather than a burden. On the other hand, could be exacctly what you expect. *hugs*
good luck. don’t beat yourself up about the slow month…sometimes that’s what you need, especially after a busy, difficult semester. here’s hoping the weather improves & your migraines ease off.
