    Wow, how bittersweet is that, doing this for the last time in your life! Good luck with the rest of your work tonight, and hopefully you get a good rest in!

    I’ve got a year and a half left but it feels like I’m going to end up doing more ~~ continuing to torture myself.~~

      Oh I’ll tell you now… it’s about 97% sweet and 3% bitter - I cannot be more relieved that I won’t be doing any further academic study after this. I think I need years of therapy to recover from this last assault and re-opening of old wounds plus heaps of new grief bahahaha.

      I’ve FINALLY managed to send through a draft that ain’t gonna get published anywhere but at least is in complete sentences! Time to sleep before going to work. Hope you manage to get a good night’s sleep too!

        You two are doing amazing. And take it from a life long procrastinator - it never really changes you just gotta try to let go of the shame. Some people need time for thoughts to digest before they can spew them out at the last moment.

        One of my favourite sayings is ‘if something is worth doing it’s worth doing poorly’. Running a dishwasher that’s half new and half stuff you haven’t unloaded, it’s fine. Better to get something out and assessed even if it’s not perfect. It’s a hell of a lot better then it would be if it were not done. Nothing will ever match the idea in your head, but it probably doesn’t need to. Big hugs
