I’m finding it a little hard to keep track of where I am and what I’m doing these days. One thing I know for sure is that there hasn’t been much knitting.
But there has been a lot of travel. To Europe and back in under a week. Four airplanes, two buses, well over 48 hours of travel, two 9 hour time changes. Three days of 18 hour experiments (which went rather well, I think…still need to finish the data analysis). Three days of hearing a lot of French and Italian, not speaking either, but learning to listen.
Back home to a house that’s half packed for the next trip: first a 4 day drive to Wisconsin, and then another couple of flights to Germany.
Today, a trip to the dentist. Tomorrow, a few meetings. Next week, a thesis submitted.
And then, maybe then, a little while to sit and knit. In a place that might become familiar, eventually.
I know that some people get jet-lagged. Is it possible to be life-lagged, too?
It's definitely possible, and I can see how you would be! That's a crazy amount of travel — hang in there, it'll all be over soon (right?) 🙂
Wisconsin is a great place to catch your breath. It sounds like you seriously need to!
That sounds like reason enough to be life-lagged. I'm overwhelmed just reading about it! Good luck with all the business. Your next breather will be well-earned.
