All right. So first, I think we got to just, uh, uh, we that. But yeah, I was, I was away on a study week.

And it would have turned out probably impossible for me to record that week.

I ended up, I think getting COVID.

I don't actually know for sure, but I think it was COVID.

Everyone I was around who I was around at the F-L conference at Notre Dame.

Everyone was around also got COVID.

So I think it was I finally,

it finally hit me. It finally hit me. But yeah, I've been away for a bit. I've been away for a

couple of weeks in the good old US of A. Yeah. Kind of doing a whole bunch of stuff. I was trying

to do a steady break, which was not honestly very fruitful. I just couldn't,

I think it was interesting. Like after a couple days after the more intense times of my sickness,

I was just like in a brain fog and I couldn't write. I mean, I saw a lot of people. And that was

the other thing. I just, there was like a lot of people around and I didn't even get a chance to see

everyone I wanted to see in a way. And I was trying to be good and like actually focus on studying but I got like only like a thousand words written

which was really kind of not good it kind of suck but I've gotten 3,000 words written this

weekend there you go so I mean you know we're getting there my my chapter one is due in four

weeks so this is why I'm in minor freakout mode.

That's fair.

So I got to do a bit of shoutouts just quickly.

Just kind of get them through.

Okay, okay.

Shout out to Kathy Winkler, who was on the Scottish pilgrimage this summer.
