Almost all packed away
Other than the tree and the mantle we have all of Christmas taken down. It still needs to be put away but it's almost done. I need the bags back we used to transport it all because I need to start packing up my room to go back home.
If I go back home....it won't be too bad (in theory) in the Pittsburgh area on Monday (but I'm also dubious about them moving my uncle to the home if it snows like it's supposed to) but back home it's going to get hit hard (again in theory. how many times have I prepared for the worse and had nothing happen much but this time this storm is so big, it seems like it'll be nasty)
In other news I keep forgetting to put up these 2024 writing totals so here they are
Original Fiction - 59,348 words which did not make me happy. However, I did finish the 1980s monster hunter novel and I'm about 6 chapters into editing it. That does make me happy. I had a decent publishing year in 2024. Still need to get a few beta readers for this.
Fan fiction - 377,537 words which is great on one hand and annoying on the other because it means fanfic is still more motivating to me than my own stories which does not make me happy. I need to balance this better.
Speaking of annoying the dexcom G7 glucose monitor's app is coming up incompatible with my phone (fair it's crap) and my 18 month old Android tablet as well. ARGH. (I need to check. Maybe I bought an older style tablet). There is a device that they sent with this so I can use it (will try tomorrow) but that means I have to carry yet another device. head desk.
