This past weekend, I made it through one of the big bosses in act 3 of Baulder's Gate. I wept like a child over Karlach's monologue about how she still feels empty after killing the guy who sold her to devils, and it didn't change the fact that she was going to die. What's the point of it all?

I've been crying all week. I'm 31 weeks pregnant and just diagnosed with gestational diabetes. It's been a really hard week being bumped up to a high risk pregnancy. I'm so tired, and scared, and now i am on an exhausting eating schedule and plus, no little treats, ever. So many doctors appointments that I am attending alone when my brain is so slow.

That's exhausting and scary. High risk pregnancies are high pressure, and it's having a massive effect on basic day to day things like eating. Eating is supposed to be enjoyable. You've also got loads of doctors appointments which is more effort. How are you doing with it all?
