katikatI'm still here, I'm alive and exhausted to the point of just sitting down and crying but I promise that I'm not ignoring you, my dear flist *hugs all*
This week's been hell and it's still not over yet. On Monday, I worked my butt off to finish my current translation because I knew that I would have no time to work on it this week. In the afternoon, I started clearing out my room and the kitchen downstairs and I continued doing that on Tuesday morning. In the afternoon, they came to replace the windows in my room and said kitchen - and while they were doing that, I mowed the lawn in the front. Then we had to clean the whole house because dust was everywhere and to get to my room, the craftsmen had to walk through the whole house! On Wednesday, I had to get up early because I had an appointment with my doc. When I came back, the masons were still not finished with their work yet. It took them another two hours to get the whole thing done. And then we had to clean up everything again - the mortar was literally everywhere! On Thursday, we painted the kitchen downstairs. Today, I had another check-up with another doc. And now I'm about to go and mow the lawn in the back - yes, we have a huge garden. Tomorrow we need to wallpaper my room... And on Sunday, I will collapse from exhaustion!
And if that wasn't enough, my boss gave me a huge pile of books saying, that I need to read and review them all *head/desk*
During the whole week, I slept on a makeshift cot in the library - yes, we do have one room designated solely to books - and now I feel like a broken pretzel...
The only thing that kept me going were my Stargate: Atlantis DVDs and podfics! I will have to swoon over that later because I should be already somewhere else, doing something else. Sheesh! Beaten by RL...
