Monday, Tentative PLNs

I needed all of Sunday to recover from parkrun, but I managed my morning regime before it was time to do the runaround for Mayhem.

I might spare myself some aggravation and go do the shopping before I settle myself into making today's offerings. It needs must to be done and then I have less to fret about on Tuesday. Because Tuesday has become more crowded than expected! Huzzah.

The Sullage people, as I mentioned, are having a look at the system to find out Why Smell. Also, Mayhem wants to take his compy to some repair folks. So clearing my schedule a little just makes sense.

Fingers crossed, I will have the wherewithall to do a second set of foot-therapy reps this afternoon. It all depends on how well I manage the shopping.

I'm walking with my cane, more to help preserve my foot than assist in making it anywhere. Fingers crossed, that helps with the entire process.

Time will tell.

Sunday, Ouchies

I had to skip both game sessions because foot. It was absolute agony last night. Fortunately, a long rest has helped me with the ability to walk. Just... not... far.

I had to get Miss Chaos to help me with my morning doses. Mostly ferrying the finished product to my desk.

I'll catch up on yesterday's missed offerings and then work on today's. After that, I'm just going to chill because I think I need to be lazy for a bit.

Let's

Saturday, Parkrun and Owwies

The bad news: I forgot to start my new foot exercise regime last night.

The good news: I remembered to do it this morning.

Bad news: My foot is PAINFUL post parkrun and various parts of both legs are not far behind.

I need a sleep to recover, now that I am safe home. And if I perchance to miss making my offerings, y'all get a twofer tomorrow.

Squeezed in betwixt game sessions and taking Mayhem's compy to the repair folks, apparently.

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

Wednesday, Rant Due and Other PLNs

At least I remembered my pills with my coffee today. So there's that. The downside is I had the little container full of pills with me for at least a firkin week. Forgotten every single time I was out and needed to take them. Yay.

I need to get back onto the anxiety meds I've run out of. They're non-prescription and specialised so it's a bit of a slog to get them seen to. And, of course, ex$pen$ive.

And speaking

Monday, Extra Day Off Because Lurgi

Mayhem has once again found a Lurgi that loves him. Alas, this news came after the writer's group was done with the share session. Whoops.

Tomorrow, I'm offski to the other side of Brisbane to unriddle MeMum's tech issues. At last. With a freshly-tuned car to do it all with. Yay.

Today, I'm going to attempt to add sounds to my Pseuducku project. Daring.

The good news is that my feet are starting to hate me less and walking is a lot

Saturday, Parkrun Fail and Fucking Asthma

I thought Sneezin' and Wheezin' Season was finally done with me. I thought wrong.

I got giddy at about the 1/4 mark. Checked my nails... and I was turning blue. So I turned around. First time in about 2 years that I gave up on a parkrun. But... health also important and staying alive is a priority.

I'll put myself back on Max when I get home.

Right now, I am waiting at Adorable's place for Beloved and Adorable to return

Friday, Back on the Routine (ish)

The new regime of foot care involves squishing my arches and heels around on a gel pack. I already have one, but it's still in the process of getting squishy[It was rock-hard in the freezer drawer]. So I kind of rested my feet on that thing and repositioned as appropriate. I also have sports tape on my left foot, but not my right.

The lingering results of sonic heels and laser therapy are an intermittent 'ping' of pain in the spur

Thursday, First Treatment, Shopping, and Time Lack of Management

I got my feet sonic'd and one foot lasered. It didn't hurt until after I was done shopping at Costco.

The sonic sounds like my nebuliser and feels like a particularly vigorous massage machine. I almost fell asleep. Almost. I almost drooled. Almost.

The laser, made to "warm up" the muscles and tendons responsible, was surprisingly cold. I didn't feel any burning sensations until I was well into my shopping.

And in a small handful of minutes, I'll be offski to fetch

Wednesday, Rant Day and Psych Day

I just have myself a really firkin crowded week. I'm glad I took the days off to start with. Powers know I don't have the time to relax until next gorram week.

If I'm lucky.

What I have been able to achieve is a source of free sounds to use in Pseuducku. Just for button clicks. I'll be recording duck noises for the game at a later date.

Much later. When I've figured out all the nonsense behind making the buttons do

Tuesday, Car Service

It's going to cost me a new pair of sandshoes. For reference, decent sandshoes that will actually help failfeet like mine cost upwards of half a grand.

This is on the low end of that "upwards" but it's still a sock in the gut.

I began today with a massive cyclone headache at 2AM and it's not looking that great for the rest of the day. Painkillers taken, but not yet kicking in. I have to wait until I have my bread

Monday, Public Holiday and Patreon

I posted what I have to offer. Which isn't a lot. Procrastination is my copilot and some degree of exhaustion is at the helm.

Soon, I'll be making my offerings unto the internet. Also, I shall be making bread with the help of the spawn. Because I already borked my wrists by walking with a cane.

I'm cancelling my story streams because schedule issues.

And spending as much time as possible on things I enjoy after that.

The sooner Mayhem has his

Sunday, So Tired

My foot firkin HATES me, so I'm highly motivated to stay off it. And I've also realised how much I've left by the wayside this week gone. My brain has been fixated with attempts to remain organised and as a result, I've let a lot of other things go by the wayside.

I gotta bake - my loaves have gone mouldy. I gotta feed my Starter. I gotta go shopping... I gotta make my daily offerings.

And I would much rather take
