I made it half the day without needing a bracer on my left ankle. My right ankle has decided to spit the dummy and demand a little coddling. So I put it in the lace-up brace and I'm hoping a day of babying makes it calm the fuck down.
Meanwhile, I have bread going on. Which involves a lot of walking back and forth. Not great for the rebellious legs.
Story very soon, followed by my freedom to slack off. Yay.
Well. Slack off within the limits of making bread.
My right leg's doing much better than my left on my chosen knee stretches. In fact, my left leg is a lot worse today. I remind myself that progress is not linear and
I have months in which to improve my knees' ability to withstand bending and walking.
I will get there. It's just going to take a bit of a while.
Another concern is that I've started needing the bracer on my right knee again. I'll talk about it with my

Fingers crossed, I can do that. Work locally and only push a version when I'm satisfied with how it's working.
I won't hit Beta until I get to Stage 3 working.
My agenda:
I got a notification this morning that a parcel had arrived at my AusPost locker. It was the cable I ordered sometime last week.
It's unriddled and plugged in before I turned my compy on and the tablet looks like it works. Huzzah! I shall be trying that out in the fullness of time.
Which will be much much much much much much later on today.
I have things to do first.
The daily offerings, the patreon stuff, and the rant that's

I found this out when messing around with the bread incubator. But I can still handle my cane without janglies, and write with a pen...
So yeah. I started a second story in the Butcher's Book.

Maybe approaching it from two directions will box the dang thing in and keep it still so I can work on it.
Fingers crossed.
I had to wait for better internet to get one potential fix done. I'm waiting on feedback for the other side. And a

By that time, the kids could have lives of their own. By that time, I could have an author career. I could have a multi-bajillion-dollar deal with some megacorporation
