Fall is back and I don’t want to fall for it

It’s been a while since I last posted.

I translated a book while I wasn’t here. It kind of came as a surprise because I took over from another translator and had to finish it really quickly. I suppose I will tell you more about the book and the thing it is about, but not today. Anyway, translating from English to Polish made it quite awkward for me to write in English. I had to get going with that, so I took a break from here.

 

Today I want to tell you life has been difficult lately. I am quite of vigilant about it since I suffered from depression as a young adult and virtually every fall I feel on the brink of coming down with this. Therefore, I am doing all I can not to. I take breaks. I took a day off last week, having realized I was losing it and lashing out. I listen to music. Usually, I forget about music. I tend to be a goal-oriented, academically-focused person who ignores other areas of life. Now I keep a close watch on it, I listen to the music I love, I try to read fiction and poetry, talk to friends, do nothing…

 

And I definitely want to write, so I hope to see you here again. Let’s have a great fall, Y’all. Humpty Dumpty had.
