Disorganised Today - Datorganised Tomorrow

A 79-post collection

Sunday, Bread and Nonsense

My time manglement skills are in full "flower" today. I did get the dough prepped with the help of Mayhem for the last fold and tucking away in the fridge.

I have calculated that it takes me around 20 hours to make bread from 'go' to 'whoah'. That's not counting the prep and bumbling about time so it probably is closer to 22 hours. No wonder it takes me two freaking days to have lovely golden butt loaves.

I should be able to have two loaves done before I must crawl into bed so I can be conscious for VTTRPG time. Note the qualifier.

Meanwhile, I work on my offerings while AMothintheArchive is reading writing contest winners.

Fingers crossed I get it all done and can run the game.

Thursday, Physio, Spandek, and Ouchies

I have been reminded to do my wrist stretchies by a persistent pain in my right wrist. At least the container bite from packaging rice has healed. But I still need to wear the thumb splint because nerve janglies.

It's time to take off. BRB.

I return.

Even the physio can't figure out what the hell I did to myself. I shall continue with rest and being very careful with how I handle the household taps.

I also have to keep today's

Monday, Some Progress at Least

Miss Chaos is at least making an effort, so that's something. I need to figure out where she went wrong with a part of it. Get her to re-do that part and see if it works when she follows the instructions more precisely.

There's less garbage in the carport and there will be more space for her bike. In good time.

After I'm done with the backup reads, I'll supervise her practicing riding her bike up and down the road.

I have

Thursday, Bread and Nonsense

Once again, it's too hot to work outdoors where the power tools are. It's even hotter than it was yesterday. I've got my first loaf in the incubator and the Dutch Oven preheating.

The PLN today is:

  1. Bake my bread
  2. Set up for the next loaf
  3. Go fetch more meds and a calendar
  4. Bake my second loaf

And somewhere between steps 3 and 4, I will be making my offerings. Probably partially between 1 and 2 also.

Right now, I'm finishing up

Monday, Shenanigans Ahead

I PLN on making heritable buttons today. No matter what, they will all go 'click'. Other functions will happen later.

When I figure that mess out.

Bread is postponed until Wednesday, because MeMum needs my car and tomorrow is the best time for shenanigans of that ilk.

I think Thursday/Friday might be the best day for posting stuff to Patreon. Trying to remember to do that is the hurdle for me to overcome.

I have ordered the second half of my

Monday, Attempts at Organisation

I have some butter fridge-defrosting at the moment. I've located my melon baller. I know where all my bits are. I shall locate and acquire some lables tomorrow.

Almost all set up for making my Crimbo present for everyone. Yay.

I'm taking my lappy for the hurry-up-and-wait. Which means there shall be progress on yet another chapter of A Devil's Tale.

I sincerely hope to get it finished early next year.

I also sincerely hope to stop at a sextology. Mostly because

Thursday, Ringing Around

I got the call from the Sullage People, and they couldn't do Monday. Rearranged my calendar for Tuesday, which is a day off from driving anyway and then called the Council Guy about the day of that deed.

I got the call from the Friendly Support Person who's sending me a list of people who can help Miss Chaos gain employ and take a first step on independence. Yay.

I have the Bikkie in the oven while I'm on the phone with

Friday, Back-arseward BS

I can at least say that an attempt was made. The attempt: Hanging out in a cafe near Mayhem's work for a bit, so that I didn't spend so much fuel on the back and forth. Alas, the local gremlins heard us plotting and decided to fuck things up for us.

I had a breakfast - defending it from a local pewit (long story) and managed to doodle some good buttons while I waited. Those pictures may be up on or after

Wednesday, Rant Soon?

I just about finished off my meds and doses, and I got the text from Mayhem to come fetch him back home. I'm still finishing off my morning soup.

I'll run and go fetch him real soon.

When I get back... It's daily offerings, the rant, and maybe even time enough to muck around with GameMaker.

Whatever.

I am taking chill time.

But first... a fetch quest.

Monday, Shenanigans ::Jazz Hands::

I woke tired this morning. Feeling wrung out, strung out, and maybe a smidgeon touch-starved. A hug has helped my emotional 'tanks'.

Started going on Max, and then had Mayhem turn up telling me it was time to take off. I'm back on Max as I speak. JUST ABOUT THREE HOURS LATER.

Because Mayhem applied for flexible hours and got them just as I was half an hour out. Ish. I then had to turn around, fetch Mayhem, and then drive home.

Thursday, Further Disorganisation

So here's my day so far:

  • Wake late and commence the self-care regimes
  • Foot torture and commence stretches
  • Drive Mayhem to work
  • Drive home
  • Attempt to complete stretches
  • Phone call from Mayhem
  • Drive there and back again to fetch Mayhem
  • Complete stretches and half a chapter.

and now it's 2 in the afternoon and I am just now getting to today's blog entry. Offerings very soon, I should hope.

I also hope to figure out buttons in Gamemaker, but I'll probably end

Monday, Busy Bean

So here's my day, starting with last night, because sleep issues.

  • Needed white noise to fall asleep, it was super-effective
  • Woke up close to 6, got on with my PLNs to be ready for the doc
  • Fed the cats
  • Check my time versus Mayhem's work time
  • Detect conflict, shit a brick
  • Get Mayhem going for an early drop-off
  • Long drive #1
  • Head on down to inner Brisbane for special doc's
  • Long drive #2
  • Have to drive around thrice to get a park

Tuesday, Everything is Sideways

It's afternoon and I have barely started my nonsense for the day. Things that interrupted today's process are:

  1. A late night leading to a late start
  2. Driving Mayhem to work
  3. The cats
  4. Dinner creation

So now I'm doing what I can to get to completing my offerings before other stuff has to happen.

If I can focus long enough to do that.

Also, I may be getting a call from some maybe-scammers at some point. I need every luck I can get.
