Safe travels and happy holidays to all my lovely readers
Tuesday, Streamlined PLNs
Beloved took the thing from here while she was up to deliver Chaos and collect a few bits and bobs for stuff and things. So that's one thing off my checklist for today.
Said checklist in no particular order:
- Foot maintenance routine
- Wrist maintenance routine
- Doc's visit to see to the toe situation
- ...and possibly gain an addition to the foot maintenance routine
- Collect MeMum and her stuff and things
- Offerings unto the Temple of notes
- Chillax
Further bulletins as events warrant.

Word of warning: I have no idea if or when today's offerings will be out. I am BUSY until at least Boxing Day.
Today: Driving out to collect MeMum for a lunch with other relatives pre-crimbo. I also have to organise the kids into being presentable. Fun.
Tomorrow: Going to the doctor about my toes [more on this later] then dropping off a thing at Adorable's, then picking up MeMum for convenience purposes for the day after.
Christmas Day: Familial nonsense including
Sunday, Sesh Done and Shopping PLNs
Beloved has a fridge in her rental car, so there will be Crimbo prawns. Huzzah.
I do love Crimbo prawns :D
As soon as I finish this blog entry, I'm offski again to acquire more last-minute things. The good news is that my hand-baked presents are wrapped and ready for delivery. Secure from assault from local predators and cat hair. Hooray.
I shall get to today's offerings when I'm done with the last-minute shuffle.
As for the session... My players were all

I sat out parkrun this week because of my toe blister. The site is reddened and swollen today, so it's going to get another dose of Savlon when I get back home. If it gets worse, it's going to the Doctor after Crimbo.
Powers know I won't be able to see the Doc before Crimbo.
I have almost all I need for the final gift prep. I would like a thing to make the lable writing fancy, but if I have to

I'm doing the second batch, today. I also have to clean out the catio at some point.
I'm planning to make the bikkies first, then rest my poor feet while I do all the expected output things. Then, when the afternoon starts to cool, I shall venture outdoors and sort out the catio.
Huzzah.
I am a busy, busy bean, today.
In other news, I managed to give myself a blister between my toes at some point on Wednesday. I have a

Mayhem has work today and possibly tomorrow. I'm also baking those ginger bikkies I've been gassing about for all this time.
I found out about the work today when I was in the midst of prepping to feed my starter.
I just have time to nom on that before launch.
Daily offerings and so forth as time windows allow.

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

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

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

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

My battery's at less than 50% so I shall attempt to make this quick.
Attempt.
The physio is working in that I was able to walk the entire 5K without needing to support it with the cane. Yay for my left heel. Alas, my right knee has had enough of supporting me and decided to be a huge bitch the entire time.
I shall be talking with my physio about that come Monday. Replete with descriptions of the clicking and clunking that

Today's the day that the tradie comes by to put in some VERY EXPENSIVE WIRES so that we can has NBN. The steeper side of a three-figure price tag.
Fortunately, we can use that expense to our benefit.
That's happening early this afternoon. IF all is well. Which I sincerely hope it is. Time will have to tell on that one.
In other news: Pippi has figured out how to push through the gate between most of the house and the "forbidden

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.

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.
