alterkrmnOh, gods. I'm tired.
I just finished cooking for tomorrow and even though I like cooking, it is an exhausting activity. The kid helped a lot peeling and cutting vegetables, but I did the rest and now I'm sweaty and I'm sure I'm not going to want to eat what I just cooked (it tastes good, there's nothing wrong with it, it's just... a thing that has been happening recently)... Maybe I should just buy a lot of fruit and survive on veggies and fruit, and the occasional rice ball...
It's been three weeks since the kid started high school and just one since he started his classes at the conservatory, but these new routines are kicking my ass. He seems to be adapting just fine, but he asked me to schedule an appointment with the therapist to "help him process all these changes." So maybe he needs a bit more support, even though I'm really really trying.
Anyway, all these changes have been a lot and my only escape is fiction and music. I've been trying to write a media update since Friday but haven't been able to finish because there's always something to do. Days don't have enough hours to do everything I'd like to do... and there are activities that require more energy than what I actually have, so it may seem I waste my time (watching my gay shows and erading my gay books), but I'm actually trying not to collapse. At least I can listen to music while I cook and do other things, or else I would've gone crazy by now.
I realize having very little external support makes life a bit difficult, but at this point in my life I wouldn't even know where to start to build a support network...
I hope I can have a little time tomorrow to finish writing my update.
