Over-Educating Myself ?

At exactly 0:28 in the video below you will see a name across the map. De Hen Bartia. I might know more Medieval Welsh than I thought.

Giddy Plus Stressed

Or vice versa. When I get to that point just beyond stressed, I clean. Like a maniac on uppers! No idea why. Shrug. Our (10 years ago) renovated kitchen is all Fired Earth. Table. Chairs. Cupboards.
