Morning. Baby kitten is still with us and doing a little better. I'm pretty well sleep-deprived, but trying to sleep when she sleeps between feedings. I don't know how I used to do this all the time, and all I can say is that I'm glad I only have possibly two weeks of gas, burping, and colicky baby vs six to nine months of it. Supposing she makes it, but she's got a tenacious drive to hang on to everything, and is already purring and trying to crawl out of her box. So, maybe? We'll see. -

Morning. Still alive. Kitten is still alive and gaining weight. Still medically fragile. Today's goals: This week is survival mode. House: chores only School: none (boy am I glad I scheduled this week off) Cooking: leftovers today. Will make a stew and biscuits tomorrow. Writing: 3000 words over projects, but I'll be happy if I only hit my NaNo projects this week. Beta reading. Extra: call the dryer guy again. Mandatory: afternoon nap -
I have a scheduled week off from school, and boy, am I going to need it. I am working a ton this week, and picked up a bottle baby kitten this weekend that's still pretty fragile. So most of my days are going to be do what I can and sleep between baby feedings. Today's goal: Get the groceries put away and hamburger patties made. Get someone else to cook the hamburger patties Kitten care Get some drafting done on NaNo projects Sleep sometime

Bananas! Where did that come from? I have no bananas also, but I could have banana bread if I wanted, and now I want. Other than that, status quo. Writing my fingers off, stressing some days, going on for others. -

I'm up. Awake? Not yet. That takes time. Big day with a lot of writing in it, but some cooking, too. I was shocked I got on this morning at all. Must be the hour--I can generally do more online before eight. -

Morning. Taking advantage of a quiet internet period to catch up on some things. It's about to rain today, my dryer is still broken, and they say we might get some severe weather today, but...my kids get their first COVID vaccination today! -
