A 367-post collection

Wednesday, Rant Due and NBN!

Between one and five this afternoon, the NBN crew come around to do the box installations that will make us fully connected. And then I find out whether or not the weather is going to have a bad influence on our connectivity.

Yay.

Tomorrow, I should also feed my starter, no matter what else I have going on.

...which reminds me, I should get my butter out of the fridge so that it's nice and soft for bikkies. That done, I shall now attempt to focus on the offerings for today.

Spoilers - it's already not going great.

Tuesday, Free-Roaming Shenanigans

Following my foot stretchies and organising my travelling meds, I am offski to MeMum's to help her go to place and do thing. Yay.

So my daily tale won't be happening before sunset, belike. I may get a few more sentences into A Devil's Tale at about lunchtime, and I am counting that win.

As for the remainder of my offerings, if they don't happen today, I will catch up tomorrow.

Meanwhile... the rains are threatening to flood Adorable's locale again. So

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

Sunday, I've Done it Again

My schedule is getting large again. Lots of stuff going on this incoming week.

Monday: Driving and Physio
Tuesday: Helping MeMum go place and do thing
Wednesday: Finally, the NBN connection (and driving)
Maybe Wednesday but likely Thursday: Baking the Crimbo presents for everyone. (And driving)

I will perhaps have more time to chill on Friday, but I have doubts. Something else is bound to pop up.

I have the rest of today, though, and I'm going to enjoy it.

...alongside the

Thursday, Back to Work?

Foot stretchies done, wrist stretchies still in my operations queue. Cats fed, starter fed, my own feeding in progress.

Mayhem was making noises like he wanted to return to work, even with his cough. I still don't know if he's going, but I'm ready to launch, regardless.

My left heel is behaving itself more and more often. Alas, my right knee has decided it hates supporting my weight so now I need to figure out which side needs the cane more. Yay.

Wednesday, Rant Due and Other PLNs

Mayhem needs bronchitis mix, I need cream. Holding out for payday means that I can take money out and still afford the shopping.

Strategy(tm).

But Mayhem needs the bronchitis medicine sooner than payday, so I gotta put on my Big Bean clothes and go out and get stuff. Yay?

That will happen after I do a dose on the nebuliser and run through my stretchies.

Which I should do now before I forget. Story when I'm done with the BS.

Monday, Backup Reads and PLNs

Mayhem has switched to straight ginger ale. I might have to do another crate run for that at a later point in time. Possibly when I'm also doing the run for cold hard folding to include in the gifts for Mayhem and Chaos.

It's not going to be a lot of cold hard folding, alas. Hopefully enough to cover at least one frivolous indulgence.

I've taken an inventory of my inanimate objects and I definitely have enough for my purposes. I might

Thursday, PLNs in Process

I finally had an affordable idea of what to give the folks I love this year. Yay. Small amount of shopping to do, a little ingredient hunting, but otherwise I'm confident about the yuletide celebrations. Huzzah.

I had to figure out which of my prompt stable was Hollidays-branded and then I came up with a bunch more. Thanks, Archive. Now I have way more in my stable than before.

TIL:

  • Tech bros have made customer service GenAI bots. I now have fuel

Tuesday, Home Remedies and Recovering

Adorable sent me some supplies, yesterday, and I began with mixing up some Shandy. Today, I've set up some Ginger Garlic Chicken Soup. It's brewing in the slow cooker as I type. I might be making some rice to go with because digestive issues.

I'm still focussing on getting enough rest and fluids.

As for symptoms, the running nose is technically slowing down, but I'm still sneezing myself hoarse, coughing myself dizzy, and nursing the headache from hell.

Hoping the painkillers kick

Thursday, Meds Run

New script in hand, I shall be wending my way to getting more of what it takes to stay stable. Well. Relatively stable. But that can wait until the road trip to drop off Mayhem. More of a chapter will happen thanks to that wait. Yay.

Since I don't have to be anywhere else, I may actually have a chance to work on Pseuducku. Huzzah.

Miss Chaos now has two game creation programs and is in the midst of messing around and

Sunday, Game Night and Heel Health

I did need my cane to make it to my desk this morning, but the need of it is waning as the day progresses. Yay. The physio is working.

I just finished a session with my international maniacs and I'm about to take a nap the instant this blog entry is done. Offerings happening when I feel less dang tired.

I may get to Patreon posts. I may get to asking the GameMaker community about an error in the thing. I will

Thursday, Attempted PLNs

I need to make a phone call to arrange a prescription. I also need to talk to the GameMaker people about the new errors after the last fix.

I'm working on improving a nursery rhyme featuring in the novel. I need hefty help from my writer's group with it because... I am no poet.

I'm going to get on with that after I'm back from ferrying Mayhem to work.

Meanwhile, stretchies and noodling about with meter and rhyme while I know I

Wednesday, Rant Due and Upcoming PLNs

Mayhem once again has Tuesdays off. It was a temporary thing, and has to be reset regularly. Honestly, the sooner Mayhem can drive himself there and back, the better for everyone.

I might cover how I keep writing because I've been asked that again. How I can have such a relentless output. Honestly, it's how to adopt a habit. Getting into the routine of writing.

I've never been wanting for ideas, so my advice would be finding a decent source of writing

Tuesday, Embuggerance to the PLN

Mayhem's scheduled to work today. It's his designated day off. So today, I have to schlep him all the way up there to talk to the boss about the schedule. Which may take less than an hour.

I still have to do shopping at some point.

So the PLN as it stands is:

  • Ferry Mayhem up
  • Wait a maximum of an hour
  • Go do shopping regardless
  • Including disposing of my expired atrovent nebules
  • Get everything & everyone home
  • Manage the rest of

Friday, Physio and Fudging it

I might have two breakthroughs. Working at the Gamemaker issue from two sides. On one side, the web install and the community help, on the other - the Steam version and its virtual Windows drive.

Maybe approaching it from two directions will box the dang thing in and keep it still so I can work on it.

Fingers crossed.

I had to wait for better internet to get one potential fix done. I'm waiting on feedback for the other side. And a
