We're off on the Leyland's Tour today. Gathering the fam for social stuff and good times. Not exactly helped by the fact that I slept wrong and my back is an achey mess at the moment.
Lovely.
Nevertheless, I shall look fantastic when we're there.
The PLN goeth thusly:
Let's get rolling.
Beloved is offski on assorted nonsense with the relatives. I am lingering at home to both rest for tomorrow, and wait for a delivery.
Tomorrow involves more travel all over the countryside. Huzzah.
I have a nice outfit for the occasion, and it needs to be rearranged with steam because of how it was packed. High volume object in low-volume bag. You know how it goes.
I may or may not have time to rearrange the Box of House set with my
Read more »I did not write my Wordpress yesterday. It's not looking that great today. My Beloved is taking me on a whirlwind journey of Retail Therapy(tm) with a distant in-law who also knows fashion and style.
It's going to be fun, and expensive and I do NOT have time for a thinkpiece. Lucky for all of y'all I have LOADS of fiction rattling around in my Google Drive so you get to see some of that.
...it's probably going to be about
Read more »I have PLNs today. PLNs to take Mayhem all the way out to MeMum's and then help her move a heavy object to a place where the neighbours won't nick it.
IF I get around to doing a Wordpress Wednesday, I shall likely concoct a topic on either of the drives. There, or back again.
Beloved is off to get her face zapped again, today. So we should be done with both of our respective shenanigans about roughly together. And then it's
Read more »Thanks to Beloved being yet another whirlwind, I now have a small store of prepped meals so I don't default to potentially unhealthy nonsense when Beloved is not otherwise around to cook. And it will save money on restaurant stuff.
...though it does look like the spawn have noticed the meal trays and thought, Aha! Easy food.
Sigh.
Same as it ever was.
Today, I shall finish writing my Tale Foundry entry, post on Patreon, and tidy up around the kitchen a
Read more »It's school hols, so I don't need to wake up Miss Chaos nor get her organised for nonsense.
I do have to be awake at a certain hour to participate in the Tale Foundry readings. And be awake at a different hour to pay a tradie [we're lopping extraneous trees! Yaaayyy] but I can set alarms and be conscious later.
I never expect much of myself on Long Monday. If I get cheevs, I get cheevs.
I get an astonishing amount done
Read more »Still patiently waiting for the end of Toasty's hiatus, but at least Tale Foundry is there for me. So to speak. I miss the art stream shenanigans.
On the other hand, the spare hours in the morning give me plenty of time to work on other projects. Like populating the level of dungeon my players will eventually dragon in. Or extending that no-longer brief "little thing" I was using as a palette cleanser between books in my trilogy.
Or catching up on
Read more »I have written the story. I have the bikkie cooking in the background. All my normal activities are now orbiting Beloved's schedule and on hold for MeMum.
And later on this week, we are getting stuff to make a door betwixt the official front of the house [master bedroom, lounge] and the rest of the house. Just so Pippi can't leap into the greater outdoors and put her life at risk.
Also so that we can have nice furniture in the front
Read more »I shall at minimum be cleaning the Catio and doing up to Area 5 in the map today. I have NO idea what else I shall have going on. That's up to Beloved.
Tomorrow, I shall be headed off on another Meatspace adventure to help MeMum. Tradies to hunt down, tech to support, possibly a shopping trip... you know the deal.
As long as I'm asleep by 6PM, I should be fine.
There may or may not be a trip up to
Read more »Date Day happens today because that's when The Bad Guys is showing at a cinema somewhere. The work of funny animal heist animation that is also known as Lupin the Furred because anime fans spotted some cinematic parallels in a picosecond.
I shall attempt to populate that level I've been working on until such time as I am needed elsewhere. After that, it's all smoke as far as I recall.
I now have pink roots under my purple streak, by the way.
Read more »Today, my love and I are getting our hair did. I think I shall stick with getting the roots refreshed. My other idea of having a full rainbow happening was likely too expensive.
We have many more expensive things afoot.
Starting with PLNs to have storage space for all our assorted garments. And shoes. And getting all the garbage out of our house. AND rennos.
Yay.
I have finished the primary layouts for the dungeon level I'm working on, and I may
Read more »So everyone's talking about the Oscars and the Thing That Happened. Let's get a few things straight:
I got home a little after my bedtime from my adventures to wish Capt S. a very happy birthday. So I have less rest than what passes for normal.
BUT... no worries. Miss Chaos has optometrist today so no school to fret about. Huzzah. All I have to worry about is phoning in the absence call once school is open. Yay.
After the stream, the phoning, and the Tale Foundry reading sesh, I can spend the rest of the day asleep.
Looking
Read more »Today, I do my stream EARLY. So I can then get ready to go on a Leyland's Tour for family meet and birthmas partay.
This may make D&D later tonight "interesting".
Nevertheless, I am making certain that I have the time windows to do this. Yay.
So my PLN is thus:
I am taking a day off. I am not wearing proper clothes. I am not going out. I am not doing anything more strenuous than cleaning the Catio [forgot it yesterday] and making the Bikkie.
Beloved has assembled a wee cabinet for the ensuite that beats the flakk out of the former storage method of Pile On The Floor. There's bathmats and footmats everywhere and things are gradually getting less chaotic.
Though I expect some chaos in the form of rearranging the
