Been feeling totally overwhelmed at work by a project. Had a two hour meeting today on said project and it seems that impending disaster has morphed over the course of the day into imminent sucess. Totally amazing. Feel much lighter.
Epiphytic moment on the train Tuesday - I have only 1 more monthly train ticket to buy, then I am on maternity leave.
Depressing (sortof) comment from friend - "You're abosolutely huge, I can't believe you have two months to go". I'm gonna need a wheelbarrow to get round by the end of this.
And finally a poem, inspired by Fionnaigh
Even such is time, that takes in trust
Our youth, our joys, our all we have,
And pays us but with earth and dust;
Who, in the dark and silent grave,
When we have wandered all our ways,
Shuts up the story of our days;
But from this earth, this grave, this dust,
My God shall raise me up, I trust!
It was found in Walter Raleigh's bible, and I only found out tonight it had those last two lines - I think I liked it better without them. Bugger.
