shadowhiveProper update time and the past few days have been so…. Exhausting.
That’s mostly been down to the nonsense about the new fridge, because it’s been such a pain. Any time me and mum talk about it, or make any sort of decision, she disregards it.
This happened on each of the last free days.
On Saturday we discussed what we were going to do while walking Naryu, because I wanted things done when we got back because I was running in fumes (due to being tired from the previous day and having had a bad sleep) only for her to hold off on even looking until later in the day (and leaving when we started).
On Sunday there were no less than four times it looked like some decision was made. First we were gonna look at stuff online, then we were going to go to Wolverhampton to look in a place she thought was there, then it looked like we were gonna order from that place when we found it wasn’t there, then we were going to go to town to look at the place we weren’t Thursday.
Then today it went from, we’re going to town (as we agreed the night before) to her having found one online and then back to going to town.
UGH! It’s done terrible for my mental health, especially with how the stress has made her snappy and tempers have been bad. However even though we did go to town we ended up ordering that one she found anyway (so going was kinda pointless.
It’s coming Wednesday which isn’t exactly ideal, but at least it’ll be here. (Not fond of the inevitable panic to finishing moving things that will ensue.
Sigh.

Ok that parts over onto the better things, because there has been some.
First the Fantasy Prom was on Saturday. I’d been looking forward to it since I’d seen it on the list of ones being shown on tv and it was honestly so amazing! They played stuff from Lord Of Rings, Good Omens, His Dark Materials and Totoro among others. However the best one was that they closed with Duel Of The Fates which was so epic.
I’ve been neglecting gaming because of everything, but I did some Fortnite to distress and I managed to do the best I’ve done this chapter, including getting the first victory Royale on it! I’m thinking of using the vbucks opi have on some of the Star Wars stuff though I’m so frustrated with how the sequel trilogy stuff is bundled in comparison to the newer stuff.
(I’m also glad I didn’t get Starfield’s early access because there’s no way I could have enjoyed it or got the benefit)
I finally did the birthday fic thing I’d been working on since my friend asked so that’s up now (though I’m amused how short a time it took me to edit someone in), and fic inspiration has still been flowing for the fic which is also good. I just wish I was less stressed with all this and able to just do more.
I ordered the Set It Off Halloween stuff, which I’d wanted to do later in the month but it’s oddly limited till today so I either had to get it or miss it completely.
There was also Among Us last night with some of the QSMP members which was so fun to watch and I hope they do it again (ideally with Foolish!) it’s just a bit of a shame that my tiredness caught up and I zoned out part way through. Bleh.
I’d also hoped to watch Karl’s Star Wars vid last night cause it sounds epic, but I went too tired. I might watch it after this post because it’s fairly short.
We went to town today which was kinda pointless and needlessly exhausting (especially cause of the sudden heatwave which can fuck off) but there was good parts. I finally looked around The Range, which is a new garden center place and I got some spooky craft things from there (including a light up wooden skull!). Going to town itself also felt kinda pointless as we only went in a few places (boo Asda not having the Halloween Guinea pig sheets I hoped) but as an apology mum got me a wooden skeleton thing and some glow in the dark paint from the works.
I’ve not done much the rest of the day because I’ve just felt so wiped, but I did fic some. Now I’m gonna watch the Karl thing before getting some zzz.
