Third gift has been commented upon and it's a DOOZY of a comment. In fact, it's two comments (I think they ran out of characters). They loved it. LOVED IT.
(Which is good, because B1 finally read the canon, it being one of B2's favourite books, and on the way home from parentals this evening, we had a discussion about the book. I mentioned I'd written a fic for it, and B1 promptly vetoed the ideas I'd written about as 'too modern' - without even reading the story. Cheerful. But I figure if the recipient liked it, then we're good.)
Interestingly, the YT fic with perfunctory thanks is also the one with the best kudos-to-hits ratio. The YT giveth, and the YT taketh away...
I still have a half-dozen fics open to read - slightly midlength ones now, although I'm still struggling with reading them.
Today's thing with the extended family/relatives was really great. Nobody ended up being able to make the beach in the morning so I went by myself, spent some time in the surf before coming back out and then it was food and conversation from about 10:30 until 5pm. I'm so tired.
We brought back so much food; like, crazy volumes of the stuff. CRAZY. We'll be sick of it by the end of the weekend, and the chooks will get the excess. Which is as it should be, I think.
Hm. If I manage to get the new chook house cleaned tomorrow, then I might be able to get help to move it on Saturday when someone comes around to pick up some of the load of mulch which is still sitting on my lawn killing the grass my sister so loves! HMMM...
I've written a little more to the other side of infinity, and posted the final chapter of No Ever After, and finally have the kernel of an ending for what should have been my![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
