I _HAVE GOT_ to get the morning glories transplanted before they get completely entangled with the tomatoes (the seeds didn't sprout, so I threw the dirt in when I was prepping the bed and of course THEN they sprouted.

I have two more ebay auctions to get up.

But in happy news, I'm running a game tomorrow. My first time as a gm. I'm ready! .......I hope.

[alexseanchai]

oops. hope you get the garden straightened out without hurting any of the plants!

[silvercat17]

Also have to deal with email for 30 minutes, as discussed with my ADHD coach, who is awesome.

But first, finish lunch. Because food is apparently important to this annoying body.

[silvercat17]

Morning glories are moved. I should water all the beds, but that means standing in the sun when it's like 95 out there, so no. I'll go out this evening and water (if I remember)

Now I'm sitting with a glass of homemade mint lemonade, using mint and lemons from my garden and I'm going to deal with email.

This was supposed to be three sentences. Four hours later, it's this. Nine and a half hours after that, it had over 100 kudos. My previous record was like sixteen hours. idkwtf!

anyway I'd like to work on a WIP now, not picky which

The problem with Ladybug and Chat Noir using Lucky Charm and Cataclysm so close together is, when the akuma then knocks the building over on top of them, it may prove impossible to free themselves while their secrets stay intact.

Okay, I know squat-all about the fandom, but even without that this is ADORABLE.

[alexseanchai]

eeeee!

[seerofrage]

That's awesome! :D \o/

[alexseanchai]

it is!

I'm just

really confused

[alexseanchai]

I got another 450 words on the WIP that I was working on yesterday. This is nearly all scene 2 introspection while the action is on the other side of a closed door, which I justify because Adrien knows exactly where the action is but there are social rules about boys in girls' restrooms so he's as close as he dares get. Also he is apparently Not Thinking About the bits of scene 1 that suggest Marinette vs Lila has something to do with Adrien. And if either Marinette or Lila is PoV for that bit of action, it spoils the premise a tad early. I have no idea how I'm going to summarize this story for AO3, mind you, never mind tag it honestly and without spoilers...

I have done SO MUCH STUFF this week

round about Monday I looked at the calendar, calculated how many days I have left to get ready for Battlemoor, & may have made a Ridiculous Squeaky Sound

but now I have ALMOST all the soap don (it just needs to sit), most of the sewing done, I've finished a couple small projects to get them out of the way & put the rest off until after Battlemoor, & I'm feeling a LOT more like I'll be done on time without killing myself.

...course I'm also exhausted, so.

(Battlemoor is a big SCA event I'm merchanting at in about a month so: LOTS TO DO)

[alexseanchai]

[silvercat17]

Awesome! Don't forget to rest - it's no use being all prepped but then being too exhausted to function

[kellan_the_tabby]

A lot of my anxiety about being ready in time is because I _don't_ want to be getting things done at the last second & exhausted -- there's rest time in the week before I leave baked into the process. It was one of the worst things about going to shows with Terrible Roommate -- she's VERY MUCH a last-second sort of person & couldn't understand that 'Hey, we're ready to go at 4PM on the day we're pulling out after spending several hours packing the trailer, that's pretty good!' is NOT FUNCTIONAL FOR ME.

[silvercat17]

Yes, use your anxiety to your advantage. I do the same thing

[kellan_the_tabby]

I mean it ought to be good for _something_, I figure.

[kellan_the_tabby]

okay SO

I got an order packed up

did the first bit of a three-part batch of soap

started a batch of custom bath salts (which was fun, cos it involved going outside & cutting fresh sprigs of sagebrush)

got some sewing done on the second booth sidewall

refrotzed my garb storage in my van AGAIN so it's BETTER

did some dishes

& SOON I will be heading out to the Gallup ArtsCrawl for the evening with my leashcat in tow

which will ALSO involve stopping at Home Despot, which is always GLORIOUSLY fun with a leashcat along

& then there will be SLEEPING

[alexseanchai]

wow, nice! well done!

[kellan_the_tabby]

I even have five things on the list for tomorrow! Of which I will probably get none done on account of being exhausted, but then I'll know what to work on next week, so it works out.

[firewhispers]

This weekend, I hope to get my bass guitar strings changed so I can work on some bass lines to put with song lyrics I wrote a long time ago.
Also, trying to develop my main character's personality and traits for a new story I've been trying to start.

[seerofrage]

Good luck with both! Both of those things sound really cool! :D

[seerofrage]

I need to finally sit down and actually start on this piece I've had planned out for a week or two now! I made time to do so today and everything (and then I took a nap) :'D

Gonna do that now!

[kellan_the_tabby]

YOu can DOO eet!

[seerofrage]

Yes! It will happen!!

[seerofrage]

Late update: lots of sketching has been done and progress has been made, which I will count as a win \o/

[althea_valara]

Working on knitting clothes for an amigurumi of Rinoa Heartilly from Final Fantasy VIII! Done so far: shirt, shorts, arm warmers and one boot. Still to go: other boot, corset, and duster. Hoping to finish by the 14th so I can post it on Ravelry and find testers for the pattern! (Anybody here who knits and would be interested in testing?)

[silvercat17]

Go you!
