What a surprise, the government system for teachers, students, parents, admin etc to enter and view grades and final evaluation can not deal with the demand the day the school year ends

Most conversations I’m having with kid#2 end up being about the government, power structures, and why privacy and agency are important

Summer coffee! Flat white with orange kid#1 went for lemonade. I forgot we said we were meeting for lunch and I was out shopping with kid#2 😬 I got her favourite meal and we’re cool again

Day 3 - Felt good Graduation ceremony followe by reading on the beach. Finished the book and then fell asleep. I was surprised that I napped at 11am. Didn’t realise I was that tired. I wrote a stern letter to myself asking the hard questions. I’m feeling “checked out” but also ready to explore.

Day 2 I challenged myself: no laptop, no work thoughts. First one was easy, second one harder. I’ve deleted Mail and discord from my phone. Telegram still pinging as it’s a mix of friends and work. I’m reading In Ascension again. On the surface it’s about space exploration. But deeper it’s about contact and communication. Coming to the end of it and I know already what book I’ll pick up afterwards. Tomorrow is an average parent day: graduation ceremony for kid#3 and dentist and doctor appointments

day 1 of break/sick leave - I realized 10 minutes ago I should call it what it is: sick leave. I burned out or came super close to it. Or maybe just mega exhausted from doing too much. - a constraint that I set myself for coming back has not yet changed just got stronger and stronger with every conversation with myself and friends (thank you!) - I got annoyed at myself for not being productive today and then told myself off for that thought. - I had the worst night ever last night. Which is telling because I thought last week that I had the worst night ever. - My legs aren't killing me after the race! So either I didn't push myself enough or got hydration right. - I need to spend more time deciding what I want. For work, but also at home with the kids, friends, would-be-partner, life.

Today’s race went through a military training zone. I jogged passed training grounds, old military prison and saw my city from different perspective. Every time I see the lighthouse, I know I was there. I set out with two rules: never walk more than 20 paces if it’s flat or downhill. Proud that I mostly stuck to it. Time was less good than last year. My friend injured herself last week and couldn’t join. She’s the one creating speed during downhills.

Last long race for me for some time. My friend and I, both parents, decided that for 23km races to be fun and worth while we need to run longer distances throughout the week. But with kids and work, freeing up those hours is hard. Yes that third hill is a killer. Hopefully we have bad weather tomorrow. The route has 0 trees.

Great read (as usual) by @joanwestenberg.eth My mind wants to say that constraints are just goals with a “no” in it. At least that’s what I kept thinking while reading it. However, that would be too simple. It might be true on the surface but not on its impact. Will have to keep thinking about it https://www.joanwestenberg.com/r/983cebff?m=a9f34b42-78c7-4c94-b719-3985b4154ffb

Husband would have tuned 41 today. Weird day. We ate a simple pasta dish he liked and kid#1 made his favourite cake. Also talked with MIL. Talked to the kids a bit about grief, how when you think you got it, it catches you by surprise, how I feel about their dad and that everyone expresses and deals with grief differently.
