*Yawn* Well, my lap has been vacated but now I'm all sleepy from the purring and cuddling. So, since Skywise will be home soon and tomorrow is gonna be busy -- what else is new? Smiley -- I'm going to head out. Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Afternoon!! We've been out and about and now we're back! I'm gonna be in and out as I'm going to be sharing the computer, doing some writing and doing something useful in the way of -- ugh! -- housework. Smiley

Okay, naked hot springs bathers are fleeing in all directions, our heroes have escaped the ambush and highly destructive creatures with really BAD attitudes are about to come on the scene and trash the place....

*rubs hands together*  This is gonna be fun!

What's On My Mind?

Chaos.

Destruction.

Karmic payback hitting like a bag of bricks and...

dinner.

Writer's gotta eat sometime and I got kids to feed too! Off to the kitchen for a bit! Smiley

Well the kids and I are fed and I've got a couple of things to do before Skywise gets home, so I'm going to lay off wholesale property destruction and call it a night. Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

And just because it has been a damned good week.... Smiley

I realized very, VERY late last night that Thanksgiving has snuck up on me! Smiley Fortunately, we already have the turkey. Unfortunately, that sucker is still frozen and it has to be thawed enough to get that dratted gravy packet out before it can be put in the brine soak where, ideally, it should sit for a week. It's gonna be Saturday -- most likely -- before I can start steeping the bird. It will be roasted on Wednesday. Yeah, I'm not traditional in my turkey cooking and serving style. It will be sliced and reheated just before we eat and yeah, I get very good results with this system.

Thank the merciful Gods that Skywise gets paid tonight and tomorrow is our regular shopping day so I can go through the pantry and add the "extras" to my regular list.
Oh, and Spirit's birthday is a week from tomorrow. That means in addition to the pies for Thanksgiving, I'll be making a birthday cake for Friday too..... Smiley

*giggle* Skywise has finally beaten our email into submission and to prove it, he sent me one.  Kiss Thanks, beloved.

Okay. Ready for phase two of wholesale destruction. Gotta spring one important NPC from captivity and make everything match with what's already posted. This is gonna take some time...

Okay, I'm gonna take my bad temper out on the "bad guys" in the Monster Hunt. How much property damage results is still up in the air but I'm gonna KILL characters..  Smiley Yeah, with over 29 years with the Post Office, Skywise should NOT work a holiday unless he volunteers to! Smiley

The gravy packet is out of the turkey, the turkey is in the brine solution and the bucket containing it is in the Guest House refrigerator. There it will sit until Tuesday when it will go into the oven. After I've made the pies..
I won't get much else done on Tuesday...

Sometime during this weekend, time MUST be made for naughty activities and chocolate syrup. Otherwise, I will likely lose my mind and it's hard enough to hang onto my sanity during Thanksgiving week as it is! Smiley

Skywise is home. He's just plopped his copies of E. A. Wallis Budge's Egyptian Religion and The Book of the Dead on the chair next to me. [I have removed them so the Lord of Samhain can curl up in the chair! LOL ] The Maat Goddess card has started showing up again and he was showing me the "42 Negative Confessions". hehehehe Yeah, I know. We're evil. And soooooo well matched! Everyone sleep well and be safe. I'm out for the night. Smiley Smiley

Skywise has been researching redheads online. He started by finding out what percentage of the female population is redheaded. And what portion is left handed and then what percentage of it is both redheaded and left handed. He hasn't gotten so far as to figure out how many of the aforementioned redheaded lefties are also Scorpios but I would imagine that he will. Smiley I'm seeing a pattern here....

You won't be seeing me much this coming week. We have Thanksgiving and Spirit's birthday this week and Skywise announced this morning that we will be getting the new computer in a couple of weeks. The first update of Leopard was released last Thursday so I GOTTA GET THAT DESK BUILT!!! So, I'll be around, just not as much for a while!!

I'm taking a short break from desk building. I need to do dishes, laundry and make dinner tonight in addition to working on the desk. With any luck, I'll have the desk ready for staining and finishing by next week. And once it is assembled in the basement, we will be getting the new comp and getting the home network set up. [Yes, beloved. We gotta network these puppies and you know it!] That should cut down on lines for computer use! hehehe

Well, the dishwasher is full of clean dishes, the washer is full of clothes that are getting clean and I'll start dinner in about an hour or so. I've gotten the rails for the desk roughed in [I've made "tabs" on each end of the rails.] and I'll drill the holes for the pegs and start rounding the tabs with a wood rasp tomorrow. Wednesday and Thursday I'm not expecting to get anything done on the desk so anything I do get done is gravy. After the rails are done, I'll cut and finish out the slots on the sides and support pieces of the desk and cut the pegs. Once everything has been assembled and checked for fit, I can start staining and finishing.  Smiley If everything goes well, I should have it done and ready for a computer by a week from this coming Friday.

It's been a busy day and it's gonna be a busy night. Skywise has the late shift tonight and tomorrow and I'm going to be rearranging my cooking schedule a bit so I can sleep in on Thursday morning! Smiley Once the cooking is under control, I'm looking forward to a lazy Thanksgiving Day.

Well, I've got the "peg holes" on the rails marked. Once I get them drilled, I'll be taking a wood rasp to them to "round them off." Once they are all pretty much rounded, I'll start working on the sides and the supports...
Trust me, when I have pictures all will be made clear. Smiley

Spirit wants the computer.
I have holes to drill.
I see an opportunity here! Smiley
I'm going to let her do her thing while I go make wood chips fly. I'll be back if I can. If not, everyone be safe.
