I’ve been taking on a lot of extra hours at work, which is good for the paycheck but man am I a tired Bliss some days. Today is not technically a workday, but I still had to be up at six to wrangle 2/3s of the Spawn for enschoolenation.
The other Spawn has an appointment in the city, to which I will be escorting them through the rain and fog. They will be cranky about the weather and yet resigned; it seems always to rain when we have to go into town.
I have been doing a lot of crochet this month; the dragonfly scarf is easy, beautiful, and satisfying. I need to scope out my yarn stash for suitable yarns to enscarfenate. Right now my project is the Aleatha shawl in crochet cotton; the main body is green and the very broad border is white. Daughterchild says I should weave red ribbon down the center to make is Christmas colors. XD
I’m doing a little writing, and hopefully should be getting back into posting regular stories on the Patreon sometime soon. This week and last were more for other people’s projects; I edited an erotic short story for Sorcha Rowan that both made me squirm and laugh, and I get to look over some of a Nobilis Reed story soon, which is going to rock because his stuff is always fun.
Last Night Me was looking out for Tonight Me, and set up turkey stew in the crock pot with leftover Thanksgiving Turkey, fresh veggies, barley, and some spices. SALM has class tonight, so it’ll be nice to have dinner done and ready when we land from our travels.
His grandmother passed last week; I don’t think I posted about that yet. He got to visit her the Sunday before, though. They had time for I love yous and goodbyes and tears; there is sad, but there is no wailing or teeth-gnashing. There is contemplation and gentleness.
I should get dressed and get moving, however reluctantly, into the day. I comfort myself with the knowledge that the bed will be full of warm boyfriend again tonight.
