Saturday, Parkrun and Game PLNs

Whoopsydoodles, I forgot to work on the blog before setting off towards today's story.

Successful parkrun, today. Beloved walked, and had to slow down because OW, fractured arm. She didn't take her sling, which she still needs when doing a lot of moving about.

Derp de derp derp, my love.

Something we will remember for the next time.

We have to wrap that lovely lady in cotton wool.

The three of us managed to get Miss Chaos moving faster than a taffy-esque plod through music and competativeness. At least we had some fun about it. Including Miss Chaos.

Anyway. I have a story to share and shall soon get on with the meme over in the fediverse.

Very soon.

Saturday, Parkrun and GAMES!

I have discovered the key to getting Miss Chaos moving during parkrun. Lemon Demon.

It's a band. She's a big fan.

I have a victory playlist that has The Ultimate Showdown (of Ultimate Destiny) on it and when that baseline got going we were stomping together with spirits on high.

So if I want to get Chaos happier about a long walk and getting fit, Lemon Demon is definitely the soundtrack to her motivation.

She was crying about being mega unfit, and

Saturday, Parkrun and further PLNs

My bone spurs are pulling bullshit on me again. I need to acquire some little thing to help me out with that. In the meantime, I'm wearing the Torture Shoes whenever I'm not in bed.

Blargh.

FWIW I need a piece of broomstick dowel that's about 20cm long so I can stand on it and roll it around for like five minutes per foot. Then I go sit and roll around ice bottles under my feet until they start to melt.

Fun

Saturday, Parkrun and Torture Shoes

Miss Chaos was my only company today. Because the other lovelies were off to Mt Tambourine for other shenanigans. And because I ran out of money, Miss Chaos was in charge.

Also, because of the bone spurs on my feet, I was a little more in pain than normal.

Now I need the Torture shoes and my feet still firkin hurt.

...I'm going to have to stand on broom handles and roll frozen bottles under my feet every day. Again. Blahaaargh I

Saturday, Parkrun, Bikkie, and Game Night

I didn't do the Bikkie yesterday because I was offski with the family tech support. So I shall be working on that, later today.

For now, I rest my feet and prepare my offerings for my lovely readers.

Miss Chaos managed to do the whole 5K walk today, so now she's in the system and may even persist in what parkrunners refer to as "the cult".

She doesn't like the pain, but she may yet appreciate the gain.

The game that should

I managed to get Miss Chaos to come with, though she had to sit at the first bench. She gave it a good go and we shall see whether she's amenable next week.

Looks like KIABIL is super un-enthusiastic about doing the parkrun. He's not really scheduling his rest cycles to make sure he can participate.

ANYway. I have offerings to make, and some WIP to write and perhaps some dwarves to micromanage.

Let's see how that goes.

Saturday, Parkrun and Security Blanket

I GOT MY LAPPY BACK! WQO!

Beloved and I had a discussion earlier in the week about how long it was taking for the repairs to go ahead. So we agreed to go seeking info today after the parkrun shenanigans. I even asked her to hold my liddle hand while I did all of that.

Fast forward to Friday. My love spends so long with Friendo Awesome and the Rainbow Chatters that she's too tired to drive home.

Leaving me to drive

Saturday, Parkrun and Altered PLNs

We got the parkrun done, and I managed to sleep until the early afternoon.

Story finished, and I shall be altering my usual plans. Doing tomorrow's story stream one hour after the game stream. All so we can be ready for the PLNs of the day.

That's right! It's go-carting day tomorrow.

As for today? The remains of today... I post, I've done the meme, I try to write a little bit more of A Devil's Tale. Speaking of...

Chapter count: Just

Saturday, Parkrun & Hairdo's

Started the day at 5AM, getting the whole self-maintenance regime done and going to parkrun of course.

Managed the 5K in under an hour, and then it was off to-- SHENANIGANS!

Helping KIABIL get some parcels. Going with Friendo Awesome to get all our hair did. With meals between destinations.

I am a very tired bean because I haven't had my post-walk nap.

Nevertheless, I must to get the daily offerings done. At which point I shall be free to messing around

Looks like I'll be set dressing and Iconifying at 4AM tomorrow.

I did my first parkrun volunteer this week. I was a Park Walker. There to encourage the people who feel like they can't run in Parkrun.

The point of parkrun is to get out there and get some exercise. Even if all you do is parkrun once a week, it makes a difference on your health.

...says the bean who hasn't weighed hirself since the scales went flat...

Anyway. I have

Saturday, Parkrun

Evidently, I decided to deal with April Fools' by not participating. Just being offline for most of it. I need to be wary tomorrow as it's also April Fools' for then.

Aaaah, internet.

I'm waking up early tomorrow for the Shenanigan Streak:

  • Game Night Morning
  • Tale Foundry
  • Story Stream
  • Toasty Stream (if available)

All of these can keep me at my desk until the afternoon, lag depending.

Daily tale to follow here.

Saturday, parkrun and PLNs

I did the parkrun, had a nice brunch, and then a nap. I got to read two chapters to my Beloved and yet I am still racing ahead on the chapter count.

Current working chapter 246.

So now I work on today's offering and nom on Denada carb-free ice cream. Yay.

Tomorrow, I wake up at buttfuck in the morning to stream and talk to myself, belike. Because lots of people will not be present for the thing.

Whee.

Off I go.

Saturday, Parkrun and Further PLNs

I just woke up and I'm ready to write!

I kid, I kid.

Of course, I woke up much earlier. Four thirty in the morning to walk in a park with friendos, then brunch.

We did a spot of shopping and now I have all the essentials necessary so that I can have coffee for the month.

Just the important stuff.

Next week, we're all off to the beach on Sunday, so don't expect a lot out of me then.

Onwards to
