Not that I'm exactly the shopping spree type, but it's nice to have enough cash on hand to buy more than one or two things at a time. Stocked up on vitamins, also bought the back brace I've been told I should likely get; wore it while I was at work - a Saturday shift seemed the best way to break it in. Once I got it adjusted properly, it fit like ( Read more... )

Quiet day today: probably could have gone for a walk as it was a nice, cool day for it, but I had other things to keep me busy. Sorting laundry, also working on clearing more fallen leaves in the yard; worked at the latter till the clouds started shedding rain in earnest. Probably should have done some more work in the study, cleaning shelves and ( Read more... )

As in I am out of spoons for the day ( Read more... )

Appointment with the therapist this morning, also some banking to be done (leftover from last week and the incident of the bank clerk who bungled something in my checking account -- thankfully cleared up ( Read more... )

Quiet day today: I kept an ear cocked toward the phone, still expecting a call from my boss, but no joy. This bugs me a bit, as it means a short paycheck next week, but I could use the rest, after last week. Also! There's a lonely prompt fic contest going on over at Dreamwidth's "fic_promptly", so I'm easing back into writing but filling a few of ( Read more... )

Had my first Good Friday off from work in years: color me impressed. I went to St. Joseph's today, hoping to get there in time for the Stations of the Cross, but I missed it. Ah well ( Read more... )

Some large cardboard boxes that I had flattened, ( Read more... )

Made it through the madness at work, though I'd be the first to admit, it was only by the skin of my teeth. At least I was scheduled for several short days rather than the usual two or three long ones, but still, I'm continuing to recuperate from that nasty flu I had last week. I'm better than I was, but I still have a fair amount of congestion and ( Read more... )

To any CoH players, or anyone you know who is one, I'm @Lady Sieges Paladin on the Virtue server. Just look for a *short* brunette with ornate white and gold armor and the longsword: I haven't mastered screenshots yet, but I am deeply impressed with the look I came up with for our girl. And I'm very impressed with the look of Paragon City: Looks a ( Read more... )

The two MMOs that I'm the most excited about getting into are, unfortunately, still in development. Those being ( Read more... )
