So yeah, done a pretty solid job of zoning out this weekend and not doing too much of importance. I’ve made a smidge of progress on my sock, insomuch that I got the heel flap and turn done. So that’s good progress if any progress. It’s the tricky bit done. Well, doing the gusset decreases, but that shouldn’t be any… Read more »

After I got back home from hanging out with Mum yesterday, I was confused as to why I was feeling so exhausted. I mean, my normal state is pretty devoid of energy, but this was just shy of being physically painful. And then I realised… yesterday afternoon was the first time I’d relaxed all week really. I’d been work-working, and… Read more »

So. First, we bought Smaller’s birthday computer (present from Nanny). Then we bought Smalls’, even though their birthday is months away. And today? Today, we bought mine. *dabs* You see, I had a feeling that the price of graphics cards was going to nudge back down this month after GeForce’s announcement last month, and I was right. Whether the two… Read more »

Why yes, it IS a terrible joke/play on words. Why yes, I AM high-fiving myself for it. *giggles* That aside, not much to report today. Basically been sitting in a puddle of my own sweat; we’re going to get the downstairs unit out of the cupboard and set up tomorrow. I should also probably think about throwing myself in a… Read more »

I had ordered some little baskets yesterday to help the kiddos organise their desk space. Of course, that meant that I had to see how I could apply it to mine. I managed to keep my pen cups, but they’re in the confines of a basket, *and* better organised within their cuppy holds. I also, in the whole productivity thing,… Read more »

The weather has been so. much. better. today. Like, rain and clouds, and a lovely cool breeze. It’s supposed to warm back up a bit tomorrow and for the next week, but hopefully it won’t be too bad. My ear is still being stupid. I think it might be glue ear? The NHS page said that can literally take months… Read more »

I’m starting to think that my core temperature nudged up a bit higher, ’cause I’m having to go as far as exposing my legs to try and keep cool. I stopped doing that when I was 14 ’cause shaving + heat = super painful rash. Since I epilate these days rather than shaving, there’s less of that drama. But still…. Read more »

Today’s crafty handiwork is, in total, drilling lots of holes. And by that, I mean I’ve done a fifth of what needs to be done. Hopefully I get more done tonight, but if not? Eh. It’s been brutally hot all day, and yeah. Rolled up my clothing to as small as possible, tried to focus on work… thought it was… Read more »
