Time Passing By and Fear of Failure *Triggers*

Selena, what do you think we could say? We keep on trying to support you, but honestly it's the same thing round on loop at the moment lovely.

You need to find a way to stand up to her and to your boss.
You have been diagnosed with PCOS - that's not a life sentence lovely. Read up on it. It's not a "serious medical condition" at all.

Today the first half of the day was rather sad and dull.

But later I've translated a notarial act from Ireland. The text was clear to me. It was "Statutory Declaration by Irish Citizen seeking "Certificat de cotume" for Marriage or Civil Partnership Abroad".

I've got confused by this construction:" It is not necessary or essential that banns of the said intended marriage be published in Ireland". The underlined construction meaning I've deciphered as "there are no impedments or restrictions".

[Suzi]

Here the banns of marriage have to be published x amount of times before you can actually get married... That's what it means.

Thank you, interesting traditions.

So "banns of marriage" meaning is actually like "announcement"? But where is it published?

In church, at the registry office

I've forgotten to tell that I'm translating two books and have more than 200 pages to translate.

But some managers try to put even more work and pressure on me, I like my job, but enough is enough. So I don't know how, but I've stood up to them.

Good.

[Suzi]

Well done!

So, my 2-week holiday begins from Tuesday and lasts till November 8. The guy who will replace me seems nice and I'm confident that he won't cause any mess.

But I'm pretty busy too: 2 big translation projects to finish, exam preparations and some medical appointments.

I will be glad to have more samples of Court Judgements on civil and criminal cases...
