meridian_roseHi everyone
Still have very intermittent internet. I had to use sister's laptop and wifi to complete safeguarding training for work :sigh:
I've managed to complete some lands of magic challenges by preparing offline and then, using other wifi, uploading all in one go. ::double sigh::
So I'm not ignoring anyone or anything, just cut off from social media most of the time. It's like 1999 except instead of using an internet cafe I'm using other people's wifi. It is Not Ideal. Virgin Media continue to be useless about it.
I did manage to nominate for Yuletide - this will be my 15th year. It took a long time to manage that on my phone. I'm hoping to use laptop again to do actual sign up.
I've got more photos to share and things I've created for lands of magic, and fic that needs polishing and posting to AO3, etc. And I'm so behind with Get Your Words Out. I've started to write random pieces for the sake of making words, and back up to a usb stick because I miss the security of google drive or the Internet typewriter to store a backup in the cloud.
It seems to have rained consistently since Sunday night here, and we had major hailstorm thunder and lightning Saturday 21 September and barely a dry day since, though a few sunny spells. I know others are suffering far worse with extreme flooding. I hope you're all doing okay.
