How quickly time flies
So, yeah. I’m writing this at 02:43 local time (only 1:43AM at home! EARLY!) because I am determined to keep up my regular writing streak even though I’m busy with family events and traveling and website enhancement obsession and other general avoidance issues. Ta dah, I have written!
What have I been doing instead of recording my daily minutia? Finally working on getting a store onto my website and then…so much talking to people. Meeting new people, re-meeting family and their extended social circle I haven’t seen in days, weeks, months, or years even. (depending)
So. Much. Peopling. And all this was after it being Big Grocery week, working a different shift than usual on Monday, going into the Big Shoulders City to go out to dinner with some of the aforementioned family on Wednesday, and then Pantry Restock Part 2 on Thursday, with bonus Winter Holiday gift discoveries that have now been squirreled away into a clever hiding place.
Side note, I feel ridiculously clever for setting myself a “wrap presents” calendar alarm for Solstice with a reminder of what I got Spouseman and where the packages are hidden. I’ve only ever forgotten/lost one present and discovered it shortly before his birthday, but I felt bad enough about it I never want it to happen again.
But I digress. My point is, I am crackly and flaking around the edges from all the social interaction and travel stress. Only melted down once, on the highway drive to Current Location. Pretty good, especially considering I was also low on calories and hydration for the day at that point as well.
Once we got checked in and decompressed, we found a delicious franchise boba tea place around the corner from our hotel. Snack time! Walked around, saw sights, did The Peopling, and then came back to the hotel room where I continued on the website enhancements project.
The ebook section is up and running and kinda works. I’m pretty stoked. This is the closest I’ve ever gotten to getting a working store page. Next step is getting the payments part set up, but that is definitely gonna wait until I’m home again.
But still. PROGRESS.
Anyway. Now it’s ridiculous late, and tomorrow will be a looooong day with a football game in the middle of it, so I should get a nap in before the fun begins.
That’s all for now.
