Momma Does Things

I had a very uneventful Saturday, which was exactly what I wanted. We are anticipating a typhoon so I had Mikey get some groceries and cleaning supplies to last us until next week. This is one of the things that I appreciate now that my kid is now an adult. I can send him on errands that I can no longer do. I don't get to go out during the day because of my work hours. I don't really miss interacting with people outside, although sometimes I think it would be nice to go to a mall again. I haven't been to a mall since summer when I took a two-week holiday, so I am really looking forward to Christmas. I don't have any concrete plans just yet, but I already filed my leave and I will be out from 22 Dec to 2 January. How awesome.

Playing a Female Ruler in CK3

Anyway, to fill out my Saturday, I mostly did chores and played - what else - CK3. This time I tried to play with a custom character. I chose an easy area, or so I thought. The game was true to history in that the location I chose was not very fond of female rulers. At least she ruled for 40 years until she was 65 years old.

I do have one bone to pick, why does she look so much older than 65?

Energy for Chores

I was supposed to do laundry today but the community turned off the water as it always does on the first Saturday of the month for maintenance work. To be honest, I have no idea what they do for maintenance. Our quaint enclave does have a huge water tower. That, and paying the water bill to the developer is all I know.

So I pivoted towards another goal for the day. I cleaned the bathroom. It wasn't my favorite thing to do but it needed to be done. Jeez. I'm middle-aged and I still have no fucking love for chores. It drains out my energy so much.
