Thursday, Promptcast and Other PLNs

I launched today with the aim to get the Promptcast entry done. And that was about all I did until ten AM. And I have bread on, huzzah huzzah.

Good news: I got the Promptcast thing done and the editing is in progress.

Bad news: Everything you expect of me is therefore delayed.

I don't know when I'll be doing the audio recordings, but they're low priority. Higher priority is at least a couple of paragraphs in ADT.

Got to teach myself to get on the laptop after I wake up and put some words in. If I'm going to be conscious at fuckoff in the morning, I might as well be doing something that could earn me moneys.

And then I do the stretches and stuff to make sure my legs firkin work.

I'll get back to what passes for normal. Eventually.

Wednesday, Weekly Thing, Physio, and Patterns

I have Physio halfway through the day. I did have a 1AM activity period, so there's less work that needs must be done there at the minimum.

I'm going to make an attempt at the Promptcast thing in one day. Wish me the very best of luck.

...and yes, I am dawdling on photobashing the cover for Not With a Bang thank you for noticing.

I'll get to it.

I want to get to it.

It's just that it feels like a

Monday, Shopping, Bills, Duties and Deeds

There's the backup reads, bills to pay, a Leyland's tour and assignments to fill. All to make the Promptcast a cooler place to be. It's nice to belong to a writer's group that's working on improvements with the community.

I also have to record a video of the issue with my Trezor for the peeps in charge of the thing. Fingers crossed, I have a way to get my account back online. If not, I'll figure out a way to get my

Sunday, Some Remaining Issues

At least my internet is back up and running. My biggest current issue is that my Trezor wallet is currently dysfunctional.

YAY. Not.

I have a couple of weeks' worth of money that I can access in other places. It's not time to panic yet. The time to panic is next fucking week. I am already figuring out alternative transfer methods so that I can remain financial.

I can wrangle this. I just... need a moment.

Who knows? Maybe the forces of

Saturday, Streams and PLNs

I'm starting to think my stupid fucking ankle is healed. I shall see how it fares during this week. Next week? I could be at parkrun again. At long dingdang last. I'm not setting anything in stone until I'm SURE and that's going to take a long shopping trip with minimal cane use to find out.

That's going to be next week. In a few days. Whatever. I find out when I find out.

In a few short hours, I will be

Friday, Not Doing So Hot

I am not a happy camper today. My back is complaining when my hip is sorted. I'm going to try for the long hot soak this evening.

I didn't do it yesterday because I would rather sleep. If that happens again, I'll try a soak when I wake up in pain during the wee small hours of the morning.

The meds I've taken are helping. At least with my hips. Not so great for my spine. OW.

Focusing on the story first.

Thursday, Ouch

On the plus side, my bum knot issue is solved. The bad news is that my back freaking hates me and I'm at lo-bat already.

Bleh.

I'm overdue for a nice hot soak, methinks. All the trimmings.

I'll see how I feel when I'm done with today's tale.

Various bits and pieces of my body want to quit today and I'm bloody tired despite having a full night's sleep.

Wish me luck, I'm going in.

Wednesday, SHENANIGANS!

So here's the brief rundown of today's schedule:

  • Finish breakfast
  • Return sleep study machine to sleep study people
  • Chemist Warehouse
  • Costco
  • Woolies
  • Whatever writing I can manage before...
  • Shrink time!
  • THEN I can settle down to posting everything y'all expect from me.

Whee fun.

I should be able to wrangle it all. I can say that I will at least try.

Fingers crossed that I can get it all and have a chance to chill at the end of the day.

Monday, Rain, Shenanigans, and the Leyland's Tour

It's absolutely PISSING down as I write this, so that just means super extra fun times on the Leyland's Tour today. Especially because one more stop means extra driving in the wet weather. Huzzah.

At least I know where I can get cheaper fuel now.

Nevertheless, it promises to be a long, and rather soaked day.

Added to the shenanigans are the back-up reads [I'm not totally ghosting the Archive as of yet] and the continuance of the Promptcast's readings. For which

Sunday, Stream Shenanigans

Yesterday's bed rest seems to have paid off. I have a bit more mobility than yesterday and the theory is that if I keep the problem leg wiggling, then I can maintain that mobility.

Either way, I can hope that full recovery is in sight.

Firefox has decided to devour memory, so I had to prune my tab hoard. Fingers crossed, I have established equilibrium.

Seems I can either watch videos OR edit something. FUN. Not.

Am now working on reducing the

Saturday, Desperate Measures

My ability to move around fades the longer that I sit put at the compy, and that's all that I do all day. So I am attempting to do my daily nonse whilst on or close to the bed. It encourages me to keep moving and thereby gently flex my knotted gleutes.

I have Mayhem doing everything else around the house that I do, and will be calling for breakfast and so forth at a later hour.

It's going to make taking

Wednesday, Still Catching Up

I owe Patreon stuff. I owe the rant installment. I did manage some other writing this morning. I dunno about putting it anywhere.

My right hip firkin HATES me today, so the spawn are taking over bread production.

I tried a heat pack and it did give some relief, but getting up to reheat that thing is promising a lot of pain.

I might have to get one of the spawn to reheat the heat pack for me.

I'll stick to moving
