I had a lovely time with my bestie! She had asked me a while back if I could teach her to crochet, so for her recent birthday I got her an assortment of hooks & yarn for her first project - some potholders. I suggested we can crochet one each so she can learn it as we crochet along in parallel. We ended up crocheting like 5 hours together and her stitches got better and better for every row. I was honestly impressed!

It was so cozy and chill and low effort! πŸ₯°

Full blown throat ache this morning,p so home office and taking it easy is the plan for today. I shall try not to feel bad about delays with the experiments. It is not my fault I am sick, it is not a real issue if things are delayed. It really is not THAT important.

Yesterday was absolutely exhausting. The kids are chaotic and loud at times but they're kids, the loud and disruptive adults incl food heckling are much worse.. I am honestly feeling low. Today is my last day of vacation and I am not looking forward to work tomorrow, nor do I feel rested from my 3 weeks off. 😭 Also I have been very sneezy today and have a runny nose... I hope I can flush everything out, I don't want to be sick again...

If people could stop interpreting "how I say things" or ""read between the lines" and would start listening to the actual words I say and what those words mean, that would be fantastic. Thank you very much.

Dang it, I missed #Caturday! I saved a pic I took at my aunt's place of one of her two cats! He is such a cute floof! He looks a bit chonky but it's all fluff!

I have such a longing to get a cat, when this lil guy sat on my lap for scritches I almost burst into tears.

Ugh another bad sleep night. Woke up every 1-2 hours and had a nightmare on top of it. Getting up early to take the train to see friends and feeling absolutely destroyed. Dad is joining the trip, hope it will be tolerable.

So, I am not staying at my parents, to have some chance at sleep but now Dad is calling on the fucking land line instead and waking me up. I am pissed. I answered pissed. Not sure it will change anything but I am finally starting to feel the anger and point it where it belongs.

Another big long sleep! I was still fully out when the alarm went off and I didn't even hear the first few seconds. I usually do, because I am already almost awake due to stress. It's really really obvious how much I am affected by the work stress otherwise. It's kinda sad actually.

The big sleep came yesterday. Guess I was holding on to all this work stress, tension and anxiety. I finally got so tired, I went to sleep without even having to read before to shut my brain down and I was still asleep when the alarm went off. It's so obvious what work does to me.

What's with the weird nightmarish dreams again? Today I dream that we had to shelter in my parents basement due to a storm. There was a weird orange fog outside and alert messages. Very frightening!

It's also the symptom of a wider issue where there are no dedicated personal offices for this type of accommodation. Nor enough of such individual rooms to take private meetings online. Nonetheless the disregard of the sign and unapologetic attitude was kinda shocking.

So guess who avoided rush hour in the morning to accommodate sensory issues & came in later just to have a meltdown because the room reserved specifically for this reason was occupied (big sign). I am so, so tired of fighting and I am pissed. I know this person doesn't mean harm but I don't think they know how much it impacts me negatively and I feel like I need to justify my needs. I do leave a note for days I don't come in at all (except when sick).

The concert was upbeat and fun, we timed it well - we came in right as the support was playing their last song and went home straight after the main act. I wouldn't have managed more but I was glad I didn't miss it. It would have made me sad. This was a long fucking day. Can't believe this morning I almost cried in the lab and in the evening I managed to enjoy a concert. With long break before and modifications from the original plan but managed nonetheless.

Please clap, I made a phone call! πŸ™ˆ Had some issues with buying tickets online (Christmas present for my parents) and had to resort to calling and fixing it via phone. The woman was very nice and helpful but I felt so incredibly tense the whole time. Mind you, people in my mother tongue are so incredibly formal, I have regular reverse-culture shock trying my best to comply. As soon as I hung up I just felt the pressure escape my body πŸ’¨ oufff! Hate it!
