Do you think a wall planner or something might help? I find I forget things when I'm overwhelmed (and also worry about forgetting things, which contributes to the overwhelmedness!) and having it all there written where I can see it helps.

Sorry you're feeling low. I hope tomorrow is a better day.

The beginning of the year is perhaps always so..even at my age the new year stretched out before me gives me the shivers in this now mad world.. perhaps not even King Canute would live in now…take care...

I felt lost and useless last night and part of the day too, my love. <3 When I let my body process it a lot of that transformed a lot faster than I thought it would. I hope you feel better soon! This is a new semester, not the last one, breathe through it, rest your brain, you'll make it to the other side in glorious form.

I love this place (despite the "grow the fuck up" bit which sounds kinda demeaning, it gives a lot of awesome advise!)
