Tode’s Weekly Assessment #26-2018

So far all this week I feel like I’ve been swimming in the sea of “I don’t know what the hell I’m doing!” and roaming the land of “Where the hell am I right now?” By the time the end of the week rolled around, I felt like I might as well have stamped the word “IDIOT” in bold letters on my forehead and just stayed in bed – if I could only stay still long enough for that. Not depressed, just frustrated with the tangled thoughts in my head.
