Breakfast was delayed this morning because someone used the last of the olive oil and didn't inform me about it. So I had to send Chaos up to the local Woolies for some more. Turns out Woolies overcharges for oil.
If Mayhem complains, he can go down to Aldi and get a big tin on his own money.
I have things to send out to my Patrons today, the offerings to gift fresh to my audience, and perhaps some free time to claim for pay.
If I don't get rolling on that now, I won't get my treat time.
I owe things to my Patrons today. I have a story to write, but I have finished half a chapter of ADT this morning.
Combo of a productive 1AM and this morning's ice session. Huzzah.
May today be just as productive.
I also have a story to read so that tomorrow's video will be prepped and ready to launch. Fingers crossed, I stay that much on top of things.

So does today. I have things to deliver unto Patreon. I have a story to create, the meme to participate in... and so many shiny projects to work on.
I think I'll give the Patreon Patrons a page at a

One of the things I spent my birthday money on is Death Stranding (Director's Cut) and I plan on spending at least a couple of hours on the spooky walking simulator for virtual hiking and chill.
Somewhere along the way, I also have to fill my Patreon with whatever I

In a few minutes, I'll start working on my offerings for the interwebs.
I've got the starter in the incubator and the first batch of ingredients weighed and waiting. I'm going to have to reserve some hours for cleaning the gluck off/out of my keyboard. Now that I know how to use the keypick, I can do that.
I now have a

This morning was a little on the rough side. Awake and productive at 1AM, unable to rest but sleepy by 3AM. Awake at some point after my morning alarm went off.
I'm determined to look after myself. Which can be a little bit of an emotional drag when I'd much
Read more »So... I may have kind of sort of sidled into writing three fanfics whilst also attempting to finish off the SIXTH GORRAM BOOK of my "brief little thing".
So it's time to bust out this little chestnut:

On one hand - more to share with my

I'm in a conference call with another writer's group. They like my nonsense so we're having a good old gasbag.
In betwixt chatting, I shall attempt to create fiction. I'll see how I go with that.
Story happening whenever I can wrangle that thing.
Read more »I have one chapter of ADT to share with my patrons. If I record the next video's audio, I might have more outtakes to gift them as well. I need to make the time to fix my cane cord. And it's looking like tomorrow may well be the day to commence another double batch of bread.
I can do this. I know I can do this... but the inertia to get started is too real.
And of course I have Pippi running

Another one is knowing how to do the thing by hand.
Anyway. We're down to the last loaf of my bread, so I know what I'm doing for the next three days. Yes! Two firkin batches of bread because Chaos has managed to engulf an entire loaf in
Read more »I owe my patrons a few things, starting with the five chapters' audio I was trying to record when my tower borked in the first place.
I'll be recording those very, very soon.
The good news is that most of a chapter I was recording at implosion is still there! I just need to loop in half a sentence and then, as Jukebox the Ghost sang, I am off to the races.
I also need to go fetch a new cable to
Read more »Yesterday, I could barely walk because of the ankle. My opposite knee doesn't like supporting the extra weight, so I've been wearing a knee brace there for at least four days.
After yesterday, my achey shoulders have been worse because supporting my weight with the cane has set the knots there into a worse tangle.
As I said to MeMum, I need a big burly bloke to wring the knots out of my shoulders with a bucket of Deep Heat.
I have

So far, so good.
I still can't sit up at my computer for extended periods of time, so my PLN for relief is (drumroll) taking napnaps.
I did make some arts, yesterday, but the protocol I used to share it with myself made it

I have a game to refine, including making sure that the popups stay within the game board space, minimising whitespace, and making certain the highlights are present. Then I push that as Beta 1.01 before wrestling with the tutorial nonsense.
I have an ankle brace that came without instructions, so I'm working out the best way to
Read more »I have offerings to present to the big temple of notes. The ones that have the potential for earning me an income.
Because videos, my offerings are a bit more scant. But I do have a finished story for the dollar tier. My ability to write chapters is slow at the moment, and I know I'll eventually get back into the swing of things.
Eventually I will find a way to streamline my processes. It's just not happening right now.
