    Really really struggling with beating away the black dog this arvo, but considering that reaching out to people in my past can be quite overwhelming when you’re in a period of flux, I think I could be doing a lot worse.

    Grabbed veggies in time before the rain hit, and I dragged myself to the kitchen to put together a massive hoppin john with the black eyed beans and shiitake mushrooms I’d soaked all day… Letting it cook and trying to force my brain to do the non negotiable work stuff I need to finish before I go on leave.

      Right there with you. Even for ‘fun’ stuff I don’t want to do the work.

      But I’ve spent today doing a few loads of laundry and checking off the absolute essentials

        The No vote has hit me far harder than I thought it would. Change in the world is so very slow. 😔 We can exhaust ourselves trying to make it a better place and the effect is barely noticable.

        Yeah that’s how I know the dark canine is around, even the fun stuff doesn’t feel appealing and feels like too much
