serendipitous journey Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Good morning! Sorry I've been so absent. Time is flying. Today: oh my goodness. Engage music very proactively (3 practices, work on theory, composer study of some sort) plus our scheduled work. RPG work: session notes, work on rules, work on campaign, work on world. Feed everybody today (dinner: grilled chicken; plenty of veggies; avocado dip; plum johnny cakes, maybe make small ones) and keep garden watered. Chores, make sure boys get clean & wash hair. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serendipitous journey Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Morning! Peaches, happiness! hope they're succulent. Right now: migraine treatment/prevention, tonight's dinner is yesterday's (because Wed was date night, forgot b/c of head ouchies), piano lessons this AM which I need to sit along with (they are online, because pandemic) so supportive thoughts/prayers appreciated. And happy thoughts + prayers back to you, friends! Esp. Critterfixer: it brings me a sense of good things in the world, that you are writing & revising &c throughout all this. e-hug! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Aww, thanks! I expect it's my weird way of dealing with stress, though. Writing tends to be an escape for me, and so when I need somewhere to go inside where I can relax, I write. Today's goals: House: laundry, cat boxes, dishes, clean out refrigerator School: usual Cooking: none, leftovers (although I might make chicken stock with leftover chicken bones) Writing: 2000-4000 drafting, same for revision, critique a submission package, personal reading Extra: There will be painting today. A couple of these peaches are demanding a still life, and I need to pose them today and play with colors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serendipitous journey Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Glad to hear that the writing is a salve for the stress. 🙂 Today: migraine management (do 4 cycles of heart rate up/mental work, do yoga, get in strength + aerobic); necessary school for boys + poetry writing if can possibly manage it; get my campaign notes into WorldAnvil and begin looking for a way to offline backup access to them; house + garden work; lunch take-out Indian; dinner comfort food: split a leg of lamb with my mother-in-law, cheddar muffins, salad, fresh veggies, plum johnny cakes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serendipitous journey Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 (edited) Morning! Afternoon! Today is focus on RPG, setting up the week. RPG: most important: prep Monday's game. Round out current adventure, work segue, plan travel + urban encounter. Then, go over system mechanics and the player characters. Work on stasis + displacement spells (lower power on displacement?) and add possible spells for PCs to learn in adventure, draft gods. Clean house, work in garden a bit, get a grip on younger's Latin schedule, get online language enrollment for Fall set up. Make the johnny cakes that didn't happen yesterday. 😉 Edited July 20, 2020 by serendipitous journey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
