    Time management is not one of my strong traits today. Flip side, I somehow managed to get a lot done and had a really good day. But thinking is like walking through Jello: lots of resistance and everything is sticky. So... today's brain is not good for planning anything, but was still in-the-moment productive.
   ~Balance~  LOL
    I hope you get to have a good weekend!
For real and seriously, that's all I've got for today.
No blurb. I just hope you do get to have a good weekend. Bye! :)

        “What’s so important he has to stay behind to finish?” Leo asked, catching up to Captain. Mollin was leading the way using his linked smart and handheld to light the hallway ahead.
        “If we crash landside with all ordinance, Dockland will take half the planet out with the explosion,” Captain replied through gritted teeth. “He’s ensuring all munitions are launched into safe orbits. Dockland crashing will be an extinction event for anything living on the surface of this world, but at least the world will still be here to resettle again later.”

    I got to do some writing this week! My head space feels better, and the ridiculous-level busy of life has subsided for the moment. My anxiety is having a tough time accepting that the ridiculous-level busy has paused, but the pause means having time to address the anxiety. Kind of a win-win lol.
    We're getting ready for another market for our Flieder's Foods home business, although we don't know if the market will continue as planned as it's still a couple weeks away. Our Premier and his party seem to be surprised that dropping nearly all health precautions for the entire summer, during a pandemic, has caused an extreme fourth wave which hasn't peaked yet. 
    The UPC party needs to resign from leadership. They've failed so much. The populace is needlessly dying as a result. Our economic recovery from the last global recession, which had been on track with the rest of Canada, has been delayed by years beyond what the pandemic has caused as a result. Time for a change.
    Please, mask up, get vaccinated if you can, and keep your hands clean. I hope you can have a good weekend.

Content Warning: fear, and bodily injuries.
        Leo was panting and wincing, and completely grateful to see Captain had arrived. She was bleeding from a cut in her forehead and one of her arms was hanging loosely in a bad way.
        “Mollin has a live link into Shiner’s systems through a handheld and his corrupted smart,” Leo explained. “Are you all right?”
        “I was on a maintenance ladder for the initial impact. Do you have control of any of Shiner’s systems?” she asked, glancing toward Mollin and then scanning the room. Her boots crunched over the broken glass which had been the antique handheld’s screen as she limped past panels for NavCom and knelt to press her fingers against Lastin’s throat.
        “I’ve cut into Shiner more than I ever did or could here,” Mollin confirmed, cocking half a smile at her.

    This week has been a whirlwind of post-garage-sale house cleaning catching-up. My hands don't really work today, but I *think* everything is set up that I can have some quiet time this weekend. Hopefully.
    I'd cross fingers for luck but that would be extra uncomfortable while trying to type this blog post up lol.
    My oldest is aging into double digits this weekend. On one side of "mom brain", it's hard to believe she's ten years old. On the other side of "mom brain", it's tough to remember she's not an adult yet despite being almost the same height as me... (As my youngest likes to remind me, I'm short and they're tall.)
    Off to cake making and final tidying! I hope you get to have a great weekend :)

        People’s smarts were coming back on as Mollin darted out of the control room. Leo set his to max brightness and then snapped it off his wrist. “Everyone, we need some emergency lighting. If you can, snap your smarts to the walls,” he said, doing exactly that as he said it.
        A line of people had strung together along one side of the hallway outside the control room; crew members who had been drawn by the counting and then stayed due to the glow from the panels. A few stood and snapped their smarts to the walls, providing hopeful lighting in the otherwise perfect blackness.

    Sorry for the late update! This week has been busy enough that I'm feel like I'm back working on field construction sites lol. It makes for short hours and long days, but so rewarding because the work is ours. Making candies and shirt decals is a lot better than steel construction. (At least it is for me!)

    The kids are back in school as of Thursday. Our school did a staggered start, so only half-full classes last week and then all kids begin regular classes after the long weekend. I really hope this type of staggered start continues for the rest of time. It's so much easier for the kids to get oriented in the classrooms, and it seems easier for the teachers to meet and adjust to their new kids in class.
    No writing time for me this week, but not much surprise there with the amount of food and shirt orders. Fingers firmly crossed for a couple hours weekly I can steal away with my keyboard once the school routine gets settled. I hope you get to have a great weekend!

        “Dockland exists,” Captain’s voice interrupted Leo’s thinking. “This exploration exists. All Coalition worlds exist! You are in violation of Coalition non-settlement law by claiming this sector!” Captain was shouting again.
        Shiner’s readings were smaller and smaller as the distance between Shiner and Dockland read smaller and smaller.
        “Come on come on come on,” Leo muttered, hitting his fist to his forehead in an attempt to clear his thinking so he could figure this out. Why did Lissa want him to hear this right now?
