PLNs

A 368-post collection

Monday, Extra Together Hours

I have my Beloved with me for a few more hours than normal. So my PLNs are to get my mandatories done with ASAP and then spend as much time as possible in her lovely company.

If she has anything planned, then I know nothing about it.

I'm gonna read a story, write a story, and then vanish once more from the interwebs realm.

Being with Beloved is way more important to me now that that time is rare.

Bad news: The bread I was saving until Tuesday went mouldy and had to be tossed :(

So I'm without bread until Wednesday evening anyway. Boo and hiss. Lesson learned all the same.

And also researching into metal loaf cutting guides in the hopes of keeping the troubles to a minimum.

Fingers crossed. Stories soonish to now.

Sunday, Idle PLNs

Apparently, I only need two hours' nap after doing five hours for the VTTRPG sessions early-early in the morning.

Yay, I guess.

I also discovered that real pasta needs heat and time to cook properly in the microwave, so my sleep-addled idea of pumpkin noodle soup with tuna was a wash.

I will find a way to make it eatable anyway because hungry and feast day.

Anyways, I shall make my offerings and thence vanish from the interwebs because cuddling my Beloved

Friday, Refined Schedule, Unfucking, and Nearly Done

I have not reached the final words of A Devil's Tale just yet. I would be doing a lot more buildup of that if I knew I was close.

I am almost done with my maps for Candy Heist.

I just have to furnish the map I started on yesterday and it's all good to go.

...which means I have to unearth the Candy Heist document and make sure I have tokens to put on the map. Quick search and piccrew will

Thursday, All New Fuckups

I had PLN'd to get Mayhem to the train station by nine so he could catch the train that would let him get to job training in good time.

Pity for me that waking up to arrive mere minutes to the train's arrival is counterproductive to the thought processes of Mayhem. So he missed the train and I had to drive him down. Again.

We have a PLN in place to not mess up that badly again, tomorrow. Yay, I guess.

As

Sunday, Snuggles and Stuff

I re-ordered my schedule to spend more time with my lovely and...

She woke me up at midnight and kept making enough noise to keep me intermittently awake until I had to get up at 4AM. Thanks, love. I really didn't need that.

Plus, when I purposely gave off from everything else just to spend time with her in the morning... she was asleep. -_-

Ah well. Plenty of snuggle time on a rainy morning.

I'm about to do my daily

Monday, Reads, Pills, and Nonsense

The Foundry is doing backup reads and I need to get more meds. Eeps. So my story will be happening later in the afternoon.

Chapter count: Just finished Chapter 363

Two more chapters until I start publishing my starter sentences on my socials.

Eeps.

On the plus side, I am managing a chapter every couple of days. Which is good production output.

I shall be nicking off from the Foundry at the commencement of the After Party because I need to go

Friday, Bread Part2, Shrink Day, and Further PLNs

I did some calculations and I put the dough in the fridge to proof overnight. Which means four hours to wait for it to thaw before I complete the rigmarole involved in making an entire loaf.

I have Toe Hurty happening, so I'm slow but not stopped.

The bread will begin happening after my zoom call with my shrink. So too will some of my side projects. I can record a chapter of Adapting while I'm waiting for the dough to thaw,

Thursday, Changes and Bread

Today, I am making bread. Or at the very least starting the process.

My starter is maturing in the incubator as I write. I have a couple of hours to do the story and offerings before I do the autolysing and so on. Between stretching sessions, I will be working on side projects.

The loaf experiment this time around is the addition of 1 cup of chia seeds for fibre purposes. It's going to be One Big Lump when it's time for

Friday, Missed Connections and Disrupted PLNs

I spent ALL of yesterday waiting for a phone call from our financiers. I told them to call that day and they firkin didn't DO that.

Grr.

I still have to go shopping for better supplies, and that has to happen today because other shenanigans on other days. Yay.

I also have the usual unfucking to attempt.

I have, in the process of this week, learned that expecting two side-projects every day is a little bit rich for me.

Lesson learned.

I

Friday, DISASTER and ruined PLNs

I wuzgunna record a chapter of Adapting for a potential future need, this morning. BUT... those PLNs have gone to shit. Because I was "clever".

The long story:

  • Attempting to switch from YouTube to NewPipe on my phone
  • Required huge amounts of files to do that for some fucked-up reason
  • Couldn't get them piecemeal on my phone
  • Bright idea#1: PUT THEM ON MY GOOGDRIVE!
  • Overload the GoogDrive
  • Panic because still writing things
  • Still wanted to switch to NewPipe
  • Bright idea#2:

Thursday, Easing Into It

Once I start planning to do a thing, I end up doing the thing. Amazing. For example - I added a few more paragraphs to A Devil's Tale. I made three attempts at getting the enemy ships to fire back at me... and autokilled them every time. Whoops.

I have three days left in the week and two side-tasks to schedule into them. So that means that I can take one day for messing around for fun.

Probably a day when nothing

Wednesday, Wordpress and Small Progress

I decided to work on the Fic Tags today. Something that's gone neglected for the majority of last year. I want to get this app of mine out into the wilderness, and that means making sure every fic is searchable.

My exercise this morning was making certain the earliest fics were tagged. Next time, I proceed from the last place I left off. When I finally get to entire weeks of untagged fics, I will work on a week at a time.

Sunday, New Years' Eve

I'm taking things easy and looking after myself today. Not pushing myself to do anything.

I shall make my offerings, write as the mood suits me, and maybe even attempt to watch the latest episode of Doctor Who, internet willing.

I haven't been able to watch so much as one minute every five, of late. Wish me luck.

I am going to reserve some time every day to work on my pitch kits for each of my books. Half an hour seems

Thursday, Shopping PLNs

Today's usually a day of rest for me. BUT...

I need to get cat food. I need to pick up a few little things. I need to make sure we have enough.

Enough bread. Enough butter. Enough eggs. Enough cheese. That sort of thing.

I have to wait for Costco to open before I get going on that. And it's going to be hot as balls today. My goal is to get what we need and get back into the AC before

Tuesday, Boxing Day and All the Fun Times

I got bogged trying to return my car to the shed, got a neighbour's help getting it out and safe, and I now have some lovely wheel holes in my lawn.

Other than the bogging event, we had a relatively quiet celebration with all the usual things. Gifts, tableside debates, and WAAAAYYYY too much food despite my best efforts to prevent that happenstance.

I went overboard on the acquisition side. Again.

BUT we have plenty of unsuitable food to nom on. For
