Hitting brick walls

"'To hit a brick wall' is a stock expression meaning to 'come to an end because of insurmountable problems'." (englishforum.com)

I have hit a brick wall. I am done in. Done.

My fundraising efforts can go no further, I have asked everyone. I am well below my target.

My body feels tight, a step is a strain, to cough I must hold my sides. I can walk no more.

The Big Walk is in a week.

Shit.

I have a 'work based interview' in 15 minutes. I shall be penalised if I do not attend.

I must hurry and perhaps, this alone, will help me pass my brick wall, for I shall walk, walk who knows where afterwards.

Tomorrow is Saturday. My son is with me. My rest is naturally enforced this weekend. Phew.... Next week is another week.....
