Future Friday Predictions & Planning 10-28-2022
Winter is coming and I am in no way prepared for it. I think the best thing I can do this year is keep my snow blower on my front porch so I don't get bogged down with having to try and dig it out of my garage.

Whoops! 3 day weekend chaos and i did not even think about this
Future Friday Predictions & Planning 3-25-2022
So! sewing! there are plans do do sewing! Not with my modern machine because... it's not working again.
My vintage baby is so so wonderful. I made a plague doctor mask and i was surprised at how well it turned out.
I am planning on making some doll cloths. I have the fabric and i am trying to find the patterns from old 1880's garment cutters books but i keep getting distracted by the dresses.
Any future plans will be sewing related, until the weather is nice and then it is all garden all the time.
The weather is very close to turning nice.
SO! Garden plans are... clearing out last falls over growth with out destroying the new spring growth. This is far harder then it sounds. Mostly because by the time it is warm enough for me to get out there... lots of things have already started growing. It's a yearly pain. In the before-winter-lasted-forever times... i would have been out in the few warm days in Feb to get the weeds ripped out and put down a layer of mulch to look like i knew what i was doing.
So since it takes about 10-15 bags of mulch that will be one of the weekend projects. I wish I could get mulch dumped on my driveway but I don't have a driveway that that can be done with.
The backyard is forever and always an overgrown nightmare.
Since I am not stuck several states away like last summer... I will be able to get something of a start on it. As soon as I find my gloves because there are spiders every place back there. Every leaf can have a spider because yes, there are that many. I have no idea what to do about it because the crickets are thriving and that is what they eat.
I am going to try and do something about the grass again... I have enough newspaper to try the smother method again in the areas that there are no hidden bulbs. The areas were there are hidden bulbs? I am going to try and dig them up. Doing this in the spring while they are blooming is a Very Bad Idea but it is the only time I can see them so I don't really have much of a choice. After they bloom is in the summer when everything has grown over them.
And then, last but not last on the list, is the fact that I have been streaming games on twitch. Nothing big or amazing but lots of rants. I hope to bring this out side when I mess with the garden during my lunches or after work.
But then again I also plan on going for walks and winning the lotto so... yeah....
Things with small changes and more day light! Warm weather is a wonderful thing and gets me more active. I do plan on posting more but, again we shall see.

whoops. I forgot to make a post.
Future Friday Predictions & Planning 1-28-2022
The biggest plan that I am doing right now is re-decorating my work space. Not just so that I can fit my monitors & laptop together on my desk, but also because I want to move my work setup off of my dinning room table.
Not that I use it as a dinning room, but i need the space and to put it bluntly, it's not the best work area. The lighting is messed up and it's just... bleh. The only reason I was using it was because it was the only room down stairs that I have a window that can open. Long story tl;dr is that the storm windows are screwed into the window frames and removing them is a powder keg of work.
This update is going to include a new desk, floor mat for the chair, and a few other small but ultimately useful things to give me more space or organize things better.
I have been holding off on it because it's going to set me back $300-$400. This is only painful because I had a family wedding and that took a chunk out of the overall budget.
But.... I just can't keep using the same setup. The production improvement just from upgrading my keyboards is amazing. So there is proof of change at least.
Once I makeup my mind I'll post about the things I get and have amazon links that will hopefully have photos? I'm not even sure if they do that anymore. But yeah. Plans and such.
Future Friday Predictions & Planning 12-31-2021
I thought I would be so smooth skipping 12-31-2021 and doing the week before.... but that is 12-24-2021. Back to the 31st it is.
Which is to say that I am still skipping this Future Friday because of the last 2 years. going to start this new one a little different I think.
So any future predictions will be waiting until the last Friday on Jan and Jan is already going to be a tough crappy so. Why not? And no, that is not a prediction because I have to go to the dentist. It is a Thing and I do not like it.
So! no Future Friday today!
Future Friday Predictions & Planning 11-26-2021
Ah... Black Friday! I have shopped once and only once at a mall on black Friday. I will never do it again but I was also lucky that it was a good first/last experience.
Now, for things that I really start thinking about with the changing season. Namely with the drop in temperature and the fact that I will have to eventually pay to have the skirting around my houses foundation spray foamed to stop the insane amount of drafts.
Technically there is snow at my house, or so I will assume.
not much else to think about because it's the end of fall and I really don't have ideas on what to expect.
Future Friday Predictions & Planning 10-29-2021
At the point I am writing this I still do not have my car back. Do I have it back when this posts? who knows! *update I have it back!!!*
It is also hard to plan because most thoughts are Halloween! Will I have decorated? No.
Have I gone through all my past Amazon orders and started working on review posts? Also no.
Waaaay back at the beginning of this blog I talked about how much work the 'math' made it look like. I am still right about the amount of work that is needed. It does not get easier in the why that I had hoped.
It does get easier taking a look at it and saying 'not today'. But that is another thing.
This little experiment has really brought to light how boring my life is when written down. Oh well.
Future Friday Predictions & Planning 9-24-2021
So planned posts ideas that I may or may not do because of *waves hand*.
What the Heck is Blogger up to
Tumblr
Pillowfort
Dreamwidth
More making money on the internet and why it doesn't work
Item reviews of things I have purchased from amazon (this is going to be weird and will have associate links in it)
ADD ADHA and how they are lumped together because the only symptoms are the ones parents and teachers don't like aka complaint diagnosis
your job requiring a vaccine is not a HIPAA violation
anti-vaxx people are killing everyone that is following the rules
common decency is as rare as common sense
This is all that I can think of atm but as always thing will change or be forgotten because that is just how things are. And then I will remember to look at this post and go 'oh yeah!" and possibly repeat the cycle again.
Trying to do more things for a healthy-er coping mech-a-whatever because I am board with my violent video game of choice.
I'm also avoiding writing some stories/books because i can't find all my notes.
Now this will be the thing that kills me with my own hubris.
Future Friday Predictions & Planning!
Well... or something like that.
When I started this I was not expecting to be trapped in another state while waiting on my car warranty.
But that is now the past and this is for the future.
One thing I do have to start is re-touching or finding my resume. It's time for the hunt to start again and i am not happy. There is a long story about that for later.
The house is still a house. It is still not unpacked.
welp... that would be that for this month? I honestly thought I would have more to put. Maybe next time?
