Saturday, Day In or Day Out?

...I have no firkin ideas. I am feeling run down and frazzled and frayed around the edges. I might just take a Mental Health Day.

Possibly involving Beloved.

Powers know that we all need a breather to just chill and zone out. Have a bath, watch something stupid, whatever we need to achieve a new equilibrium.

Or maybe another extended nap like the one I took yesterday. And neither of us are allowed to feel bad about not making content/solving problems/gaining cheevs.

Sometimes, a person just needs to take a day.

So I'm taking a day.

Wednesday, Continuing Shenanigans

I have individuated thirty chapters for Mum's ease of access and... she can't access them for some reason -_- fml...

I asked her what she meant by "it won't Expand" but there was no indication about that from her. Fun stuff. I might find out at a later hour. I might have to go there and find out in person.

Not tomorrow, since I am helping Beloved with funerary arrangements and doing the whole prop-up and support thing. I shall be

Sunday, Game Night and Shenanigans

Tale Foundry is about to commence the weekly reads. I am prepping for the stream and the entry for this week's competition.

I voted for this one, but I only had a vague idea of what to do with it so... hoist by my own petard, I guess.

I also forgot what day it was, yesterday, so I owe my audience another read to make up for it.

I think I'm getting over the mild lurgi I picked up at Woolies, so

Friday, Unfuckening and Shenanigans

I need to clean the catio today, and also see the local medico visavis my blood test. I also may have picked up a rhinovirus at Woolies.

Some dingus didn't cover their firkin mouth at the ONE place I forgot to wear my dang mask. FUCK.

I'm going to be exiled to the plague seats out in the open air. All the better to prevent the spread of disease.

Beloved and I have begun to work together on the budget, which

Friday, Unfuckening & Shenanigans

I shall at least be cleaning out the Catio today. Despite cyclone headaches, despite whatever my painkillers are going to do to me today.

I distracted myself from writing this blog. Yay. But at least I got to do the right things in the right order.

Today's pln also includes a chamber or a void in TaleSpire, at minimum five chapters to summarise of Adapting and then writing, relaxation, and possibly an awful lot of Minecraft.

Beloved has a fancy 'do' to

Friday, Unfuckening and Date PLNs

Queen Elizabeth II has passed from this cruel world, so now we get King Charles the Somethingth. I can't remember which Charles we're up to.

Unless he abdicates in favour of one of his kids. Unlikely. He's been waiting his entire life to get the crown so... I guess we see what kind of king he is.

The Muppet had nuclear secrets spread out on his hotel floor in Mar-a-lago. Lovely. Including other nations' nuclear secrets. So of course he's claiming that

Wednesday, Wordpress and Shenanigans

I am immediately poddling off to get my veins plumbed because the Doc I'm now seeing wants to be sure of my early morning Cortisol levels.

This is the earliest I can wrangle.

The blood people open at 7 and I am doing my darndest to be there as fast as I can get there.

Which means quickest possible publish and advertising cycle and a brief blog.

I work out what the fuck I'm doing today as I do it. I'm squeezing

Saturday, Sleep Issues

There's no game tonight because the DM has a dangerous rhinovirus that is not the plague. It could still turn into pneumonia if she's not careful, so taking time to rest and recuperate is warranted.

Which means I have more time to potentially mess about with either writing or Minecraft on the Tale Foundry server.

You can already guess which has more appeal.

But before I do any of that, I shall be making sure I have samples of Clockwork Souls ready

Wednesday, Le Scramble

I have Chaos to ship off to camp, a doctor's appointment, and Date Night happening in 24 hours.

Whee.

I also should gather up samples from all of my books and figure out how to develop press kits for each of them.

Or at least suitably satisfying blurbs about them for my potential publishers to use.

Hargleblargh.

I think I might arrange all the samples first. That's easier. For ALL the books. Even the unfinished trilogy and A Devil's Tale.

Because go

Tuesday, Patreon, and maybe shopping?

We're short on cream and I need to get more, so that's going to be an interesting journey. I cried the last time there was a grocery shop.

At least this time I can focus on what we need, get it, and get out. And I have some cashes to help alleviate the impact on my bank account.

Yesterday, I did manage to filter ten more potential publishers. Some have specific time windows when they're open for submissions, so I may have

Long Monday, No PLNs

I should edit ten more chapters. I should filter ten more publishers. I should build at least one more chamber or one more void in TaleSpire.

BUT I'm already tired as fuck so none of that is likely to happen.

Monday's the day I expect nothing out of myself. And also the day that I usually end up writing like three chapters of A Devil's Tale. There's an equal chance that I will just sleep all day.

We shall see.

Friday, Unfuckening, Long Covid

I'm pretty sure my Cortisol levels are at rock bottom. I am constantly tired and everything is an effort. Hell, I fell over asleep yesterday instead of doing book edits and filtering publishers.

AND I need to re-filter the publishers I've already filtered and sort according to whether or not they take Steampunk because I have some of those to sell as well.

Today, I have halved my roid puffer intake to see if I can deal. So far, so good.

Monday, Long Covid? Social PLNs

It's not a Long Monday. I cancelled Game Night because Beloved told me at 8PM that there was a dinner we're meant to go to this evening.

So my choices were: a lot of caffeine and being lackluster for the latter half of a 48-hour day, or get some firkin SLEEP and shine for the important stuff.

My mob apparently gave up on game night too. Dag.

Sigh.

We're pondering easier ways to make the dungeons happen so we can get on

Sunday, Game Night? And Run Around

We're visiting Capt. S today so I may not be streaming game(s) tonight. Be warned.

Immediately after I do the publish cycle, I am getting spruced up to visit ailing fam. I might take the iPad with me because I can work on it offline and not need to worry about data costs.

So I might make some progress on the wedding outfit too. Fingers crossed.

Intent sails out the window if my brain and bod decide to nap in the

Saturday, Game Night Ho!

Tonight is another night for Gort to enter the shenanigans. Timing of everyone willing, of course.

In the meantime, I will do either one chamber or one void in TaleSpire. Building dungeon be hard. Blargh.

Then I shall think of something to add to Alfarell. If I am so inspired.

I am so tired today -_- I might just default to playing Minecraft with my fellow maniacs from D&D.

I need to go Redstone Hunting again. Hargle blargle. Always
