Circumnavigating the whelm via a Slow Loris

I’m feeling very overwhelmed today.

I’m FEELING ALL THE WHELM.

I’m working too much, writing too little, but not feeling like writing at all.

I can’t afford the time for whelm. There’s work to prep for and do, a family to care for, a cat to cuddle, fish to feed (shit did I feed the fish?), a house to clean (yeah RIGHT).

I’m feeling very pressured and out of control. I’m also knackered, headachey and full of whining self-pity.

I need to rest, but I can’t. I should shed some stuff, but I can’t. I have a short holiday booked next month but that’s a looong way away.

So for now, I’m just going to have to work out a way to move around the whelm, because I can’t go under or over it right now.

I’m going to be circumwhelmed.

So in support of my efforts to go AROUND the whelm, here is a very sweet video of a Slow Loris eating a rice ball.

So tell me everyone,
how do you circumnavigate the whelm?
