Holidays are for you, too

Hey all! I’m writing today because I’ve been put on sick leave for a week (and yet here I am, writing blog posts… oh well) and it reminds me that I have something to say, as much to myself as to others. I am very feverish and on a lot of medication, so this is… Read More Holidays are for you, too
