Thursday! Between the Zines: Splat!
V4, I22
You know what? I didn’t think it’d happen, but I’ve hit a wall. In truth, for the past month or so I’ve felt that I was just barely keeping up with my various obligations1 and, today, this one got away. I feel like crap about it and I sincerely apologize. My most fervent hope is that my brain catches back up to the rest of me, but we shall see, I guess.
Again, I’m sorry. This is a new experience for me and I’m not quite sure how to handle it except to be honest and incredibly awkward, so here we are.
I plan to be back next week with a zine full of good poems and at least one story. After that…let us see, okay?
Okay. Thank you. Okay.
I’m still teaching Sunday School every week and the lessons have gotten more challenging. I’ve also had to do more running around with my Mom to get her to medical appointments and whatnot. Work is more unsettled lately as well with some changes locally and at the very top of the Agency for which I work. None of it by itself is Earth-shattering, but all together, I’m having some issues coping with it all.
Your brain will catch up and it will all be good!
It's okay (and even normal) to hit a wall like this, and you certainly don't need to apologize for it. It's not a moral failing -- you have just been going through a LOT lately and are (understandably) frayed.
