Five-Hundred Word Challenge 1432: Catching up on a backlog

Soon I will be caught up on one thing that has taken me about a year to catch up on, though it may have been longer, now that I think about it. But anyway, soon I will be caught up on one thing, and then once I’m done with that I’ll be catching up on roughly three-and-a-half years of comments. Replying to them all, except for some form one person that I’m not going to go through the process of approving.

Comments are a great way of engaging with an audience, and fair. I get that. But I’ve got to be honest: there was a period here where there was this one person who was just commenting on absolutely everything in a way that made me really uncomfortable, and then I let things get away from me. But now I need to prepare to catch up on all of those words that people have written, and I’ll get there, but it will take some time. But I’ve some time off soon, so that will help.

I should spend the time relaxing, but I probably won’t. After the first couple of days I’ll get restless and then it will be back on. Will be back to powering through everything, and hopefully I will actually get some stuff done. Hopefully. It always depends.

Really, what is coming up will be an interesting exercise in business and work, and working on reducing business, and planning and all those things. Next year is going to be an interesting year, and this year has been also. It has been a time and it keeps on being a time, and I don’t foresee that stopping any time soon. What I hope, however, is that the life part of life calms down a bit, and things get a little more boring, and I can get on with the getting on, but I need to get this place up to date before that can happen.

Now sure, perhaps I should’ve just stayed on top of everything as it was happening. That would be a fair thing to suggest. However, see above about discomfort. You don’t know when that stuff is gonna stop, and it took a while to stop… or at least, that’s how I remember it.

So… yeah. I don’t really know if there’s meant to be anything in what I’m saying here. I just kind of wanted to give an update on two things without mentioning one of them for no real reason. Beyond that… yeah. Got nothing. Meant to be working on a review that gets longer and longer, and I need to cut it down but I’ll be doing that after I’m done here, and hopefully I’m done here within an hour. But everything takes time and time is continuing to be taken, but it’s all okay. It could be worse, but I’ll get there. Always do, except for when I don’t, but we’ll see this time.

And now I’ve nothing else to say.

The time it took to write five-hundred words: 06:30:29

Not great. One of those struggle writes, but I got there in the end.
I think this would’ve been better just as a general post.

Written at home.
