Dock

What's on Deck

Hooray!!!! We finished Another Week of Aprilt.

 

The first week part of the project was doing this page and we finished it on April 4th and planned projects on the deck for the next week.

Sort of: a day early. So we started a the ships rolling. 

I shuffled the start of all the projects making sure each group had something expressly for them. 

And now we are on yet another week.  Been Here Before and Want to Jump to the current Week:

The Ships Coming into the Port

So What is going on Between April 5th to April 11th :  Well here is what is on my deck:

But Ariarose isn't
Three a Number

In Balance

True there are eight tabs....a lady needs to PLAY a little.

And who knows maybe I'll spend a little time streaming.

All that was done we were about to sit back and relax and chill but more boats came in as this eager beaver struggles resting still.

they told me 23b.jpg

Now that the ones above docked what else did we do

We are still between April 7th to April 11th: Well, here is what shuffled onto my deck:

However, Even When I, Go to Sleep

Woman Resting Outdoors

Another Adventure Will Come

And that will be okay

Every day we gather the bone dust.

A new ship will sail onto the port

But Where Will I go

... But Aria, you skipped boat nine.

​Not fully, I capped on Runesape

or was that last week and I went to see

the Easter Bunny. Can't remember.

Ha ha ha.

I know, I know. I wanted to stream but

I decided to sleep. I felt a need to be lazy.

Welcome to Wednesday

So What is going on Between April 5th to April 11th :  Well here is what is on my deck:

Ah it is just around 1 PM

Getting through a wednesday with a happy heart.jpg

Did I eat breakfast...

I woke up at 5 AM

Took a shower

Started working....

Did I eat something?

I think I may have skipped it my stomach is rumbling, and I need to go and send my old equipment back to my old company....

Sometimes, I am such a naughty kitty...

and forget to eat something.

Maybe Lord Sinjin will tag along and we will have a lunch date. Someone who has retired slept the day away... he just woke up, and when he does I always stop and think... Aria did you eat today?

As this busy beaver sometimes forgets...

But hey, it is all a part of being

Just another Wednesday. And I am sure I grabbed at least a snack at some point.

Lunch Date

Aria that was done on Wednesday...

I know I took it easy today...

I do think I am getting a cold.

Spaghetti With Meatballs

Lord Sinjin Among the Chief Procrastinators said..

Can we do that tomorrow? They sent me the notice only this morning and we do have to drive an hour too. I am a little tired but it is fine so we push that off to tomorrow. But isn't it sweet he went and made me spaghetti...

Aria, you're allergic to tomato?

Nah, just the raw seeds cause an issue.

The rest of the tomato is only guilty if raw by association.

As long as the sauce is smooth, I can enjoy a tiny taste of sauce.

Baseball On Field

The White Sox Were Then Playing

So I kicked it back and relaxed,

As I said I feel like I have a cold coming

And on occasion, I opt to be lazy.

Thursday Morning & Boy This Cold.... Ugh...
We all get them but don't worry over mine. This is not something so bad you  even write home about it.

So we are now on April 9th and I have burnt through my claude pro. I do have a couple other AI Helpers AskGPT, Leonardo.ai, Artspace.ai (The new one that works for mostly just editing existing, but that is fine fixing photographs requiire special tools and a lifetime unlimited membership worth every penny.)  Artspace does have a generator but no prompt enhancer. It does one image at a time. It takes it time and I get it but this is a reason for doing multiple hits at once.

On top, I have Sudowrite, Prowriting Aid, Grammarly, Coloring Book Creator, Puzzle.Me.... I know and not a single one replaces humans they just speed a few things along.

Claude is the research partner, AskGPT does copy edits as it is seemingly endless but confined to one chat length and I sometimes need multiple ones to do a single chapter with it. But hey we get it done with it when Claude runs out. I used to have the Max Plan. And believe it or not every week I cap it out on weekly usage.

 

But furlough means priorities, and I am not complaining. I invested an annual amount in pro plan for a bit and a bit extra for each month sort of a blend between 20 to 100 I used to pay longing for a spare 100 to drop Ha ha ha. Even working can't afford big bills when someone's meds run 400 a pop.... yep 400. Someone little has congenital heart failure and his are 113 before adding semperica trio and his multis. I am not complaining in the least just saying to explain. Life deamnds a balance.

Sudowrite can lend some suggestions, but it's more a repository of projects in case there is a deletion. Sudowrite goes to purple and repeats the same sequences and fails to hold what is in the entire passage but if I use it for suggestions the biggest one is Where action beats are required in a large dialog box. I delete its purply, repeats and then go okay this here is where something must have happened, and then slip my head between a state that is more than meditation and more toward day dreaming but with a ton of vivvidness. Not as good as my random night dreams, but directed dreaming is best achieved in a nap or meditative state.

But here we are up bright and early 4:38 AM. 22 minutes before the alarm clock. So Science is fully on deck. Lord Sinjin is a sleeping prince right now. But there was a bit of editing to be done.

And At Lunch

envato-labs-ai-8927c52a-3b9c-4cae-873d-17092b7477e9.jpg

An idea started to simmer

After all I was quite ill and sort of between

awake and asleep

The poem I had made wasn't quite right

The images were wrong because

it didn't touch enough

of this journey....

the path to motherhood is so individual

and it needs to still be done

but in a much different way.

This is also a big project but I will

work on it when able.

But all these various journeys, need a place they can be formed for all but...

It might be a bit this is getting a little bit serious.

Sometimes a fever knocks me under the table, but that is okay. As I lay there, ideas will form and dust will gather.

 But even if this is the end of my projects for the week as I must right now spend time and just think and rest, I think I had a productive week.

But Just Lying Down Is Sometimes Difficult

As there are ships to sail next week

If more is done we will add them here, but this is the plan to accompish sometime in the next week:

The Ships Coming into the Port

So What is going on Between April 12th to April 19th :  Well here is what is on my deck:

And of course, I need to plan something most people just do.

But I likely already showed why I have to sit and try and plan it....

Play Something Ariarose Ha Ha Ha

Folks I am a bit of a workaholic...:D

Friday and Saturday before ....

(Sir Chewy: Aria you're sick!!! Get back to bed.... )

But I should try and do just a bit....

An Otter Day, ye ha hooyah!
Ha Ha Ha...
Otter Day Hilarious!

I think maybe we are getting over the adjustment today. There is still a little pressure behind the left eye but hey that is more doable. Okay we need to get started on what? Oh yeah we need to finish the Turning Twister Fan Page and Work on sending out the What is Wrong? newsdesk letters.

The Ships Coming into the Port

So What is going on Between April 12th to April 19th :  Well here is what is on my deck:

Black Cat in City

Welcome to Tuesday

It for sure is approaching my birthday. Working things stop working. Orders will be wrong. Someone will be sick and need to tell me on my birthday, not that I wouldn't care about it already. 

I was born on April 20th.....yeah Hitler's Birthday. If ever a birthday got cursed a million times or better, it was his. I think the principal one is "I curse the day you were born." I do understand it, but I have yet to meet a person born on my day to have a full good day like ever. Ah well, it will be fine and I do understand. He was decidely inhumane.

The "Fun" Time Approaches Ha Ha

April 14, 2026: the Universe's Giggle Fest Has Started

Beach Couple Embrace

I had said the Fun Time Approaches

I get my birthday joy ahead as...

why worry about disaster that come around time and time again ...

Instead, I live for joy and love. I think it's the best way to live.

Couple Relaxing Indoors

Vacation Mini-Vacation

Yes, even I take one every now and again.  But I am never fully free.  There will be dust gathered. I am going to put out the final bit of Book 2 Volume 2 and then call it a day. We will list the titles as they come up and gather....

Ah well, I might be restructuring the site totally with a team and we will kick it around..

The Ships Coming into the Port

April 20 to April 26 As back to wr

Dust Gathering

April 14, 2026: the Universe's Giggle Fest Has Started

And We Played Some Runescape while Watching Our Dramas

And well may have wrote a few little things for little sweet kids.

cute bad kitten.jpg

I am failing vacation again....
but we managed to keep ourselves from updating this page fully to Thrusday....

Time to try vacation again today.
But I am often, a bit of a bad kitty.

And While Watching Our Dramas

We may have wrote some things.

Home theatre

Lord Sinjin: Yeah, she watches some TV writes 8 stories in a day and she takes watching TV as accomplishing a "Vacation."
Stop writing and cuddle with me.

(Yes, my love, its baseball time. Maybe tomorrow...)

Sir Chewy: Yeah, maybe tomorrow she'll accomplish it.
But the more she relaxes... the more she ends up writing.

It is now my birthday April 20... and I had well tried to submit the edits for Hey Series Page 2 this weekend and I took the hint to rest before the new job started better... but it started today.  But a new week another set of tasks to do.

The Ships Coming into the Port

So What is going on Between April 5th to April 11th :  Well here is what is on my deck:

LORD SINJIN

No!!! No work this week; that is next week.

(But....)

You must achieve vacation or get your first paycheck. No editing... no writing....nothing you need to REST your eyes have become pandas.

(It is my birthday.... so okay. But he best get dust will still be gathered.))

And Since I am such a naughty cat when he was asleep... I did maybe somethings....

Again edited the next 9 of the Hey Series, Edited Violet Eyes during my Lunch Break, Collected the Dust of She's Unlike. Edited TTT Book 2, And worked on the Hey Series Fan Page. The Worksheets I'd get caught doing, just as I'm rushing to do a little bit of this and that on Saturday when I'm supposed to be resting.  Such a Bad Kitty.... ha ha ha. Always failing vacation.

Cat With Blue Eyes
Smiling Woman Portrait

But would we have me any other way...?

Man Walking Outdoors

And We Sailed

And landed on

many shores,

Sorry, Lord Sinjin,

I was again

such

a bad kitty....

Ha Ha Ha

Maybe, we will work less next month

Aria .... you aren't working on Vacation...

Love, you have a serious problem. You are now getting up at 5 AM leaving by 6, at work at 7ish waiting for it to open for training and then coming home with but 2 hours to spare before I send you to bed. I get you have a mission, but it's time to rest before you burn out. Ah well another week of no work. I feel like rejoicing if you achieve it.

(I get you are worried so I will do my best.... It's really hard, but we will get more done next weekend as he caught me working .... he's threatening to put my laptop in a lockbox when I am on vacation.

But what do you think of my month of not much in the way...

sadly it will change next month but that is okay. One has to work to have bread on their plate.)
