Don’t you just love administrative paper work? I guess, once it is over, it feels like you have climbed a mountain.
It does Gabriella thanks for reading and your comment. Hope you are keeping well.
Ah yes, that mountain…!
We climbed it Freya and it was a huge relief.
Everyone has their mountains to climb. So Glad YOU wee able to climb.
Thanks Mary probably wasn’t Everest but at times it felt like it.
A jig even? Wow, that’s a celebration! Nice d’verse Michael sounds like you did win.
Big time Jackie. Thanks for the comment.
Wonderful accomplishment! Yes, celebrate.
Thanks Victoria. My best wishes to you and your friend.
I’m always climbing a mountain in my head x
Ahh….and do you get to the top and see the other side?
Never! But I am constantly striving, it gives me neck ache though!
Well you can do no more than strive Justine. Have a good weekend.
Everests surround us – congrats!
Thanks so much Bill.
I know it’s St. Pat’s Day has passed – but – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80Fa2vhA6a4
would be pretty cool…esp if it was one of those places that few get the chance to climb
places unseen by so many…i love the mountains…i need to make another trip soon…
Thanks so much Brian for reading.
haha… i know EXACTLY what kind of mountain you’re talking about…
Thank you so much Claudia, needless to say I climbed the mountain and have seen the other side.
Tongue in cheek, yet also wry humour there. Yep, we know that mountain all too well, well done on climbing it!
Thanks so much Marina. It’s good to have made it to the summit.
Climbing the mountain of paperwork and getting through the bureaucratic nonsense, an amazing feeling, a mountain climbed, an emotion well written.
Thank you so much Jenny for that lovely comment. Amazing is a good word to use.
You are welcome my friend
This left me with a big smile. Great job with the prompt! And yay for you!
Thank you so much Kelly. I enjoyed writing this one.
The mountain.. and the other part of the struggle.. not just the climb itself.. Works so well both as a metaphor as directly.
Thank you Bjorn the reality was tough but victory was achieved.
I love this Michael the way you’ve written it! Sweden is extremely bureaucratic there is paperwork for going to the loo it seems
Well it wouldn’t have surprised me if they wanted to know your toilet paper preference. Thanks so much Yves.
