[OOC] The Tree of Astra (LadyAnnaLee and Blackfridayrule)

[Blackfridayrule]

Not yet. More or less, I gotta see how it plays out over the next month and the doc will either decide to do surgery or they’ll call it “maximum medical improvement” or whatever and release my case (aka I won’t get any more care and I don’t have health insurance so if I don’t get work comp I can’t get any additional care and my career would be destroyed). Seeing as how in the last couple days it’s gotten inexplicably worse, I haven’t been doing well mentally.

[LadyAnnaLee]

I am so sorry to hear that. That sounds terrible. If you don't mind I would like to keep you in my prayers. Would that be alright?

[Blackfridayrule]

Please do, I’ll take all the prayers I can get right now.

[Blackfridayrule]

sorry once more for the delay. partly I'm trying to figure out what I wanna do in the next post, and partly because as of two weeks ago I started actually going back to work after 3 months! woohoo! It's been going well, though I'm usually pretty tired when I get home so I haven't had a lot of time to devote to writing. As it turns out, going from sitting around for 3 months, and then suddenly working 40 hours doing manual labor is a hard adjustment haha. Worth it though, I love my job. I'll get you a post soon!

[LadyAnnaLee]

I am so glad to hear that you got back to work! That's so exciting! Best of luck readjusting. There's no rush with the post at all. I promise.

[LadyAnnaLee]

Hello! I just wanted to check in. Are you managing to adjust back to working smoothly?

[Blackfridayrule]

Been a little bumpy, to be honest. I'm also currently out of state for my brother's wedding haha. But I'm just siting down now to write a post!!

[LadyAnnaLee]

Bumpy is better then not at all. At least you are getting back to work. And weddings are super exciting!

[LadyAnnaLee]

I completely and totally forgot my family was coming to town this weekend. I'll get you a post just as soon as I can I promise.

[Blackfridayrule]

Very true!

Take your time friend!

[Blackfridayrule]

promise I haven't abandoned you, been busy with camping and projects and all kinds of things. I'll get you a post eventually, promise!

[LadyAnnaLee]

Thanks for the update. I look forward to it.

[Blackfridayrule]

sorry for such a long delay. somewhere between being busy and feeling a little less than inspired it took me a bit, but I did get a post out eventually!

[LadyAnnaLee]

Thank you so much for your post. I feel I should let you know that there will be a delay in my next post. Work and family will have my attention for the next week or so. Thank you for your patience. Darin will return in due course.

[Blackfridayrule]

No worries!

[LadyAnnaLee]

Hello! After rereading some parts of this it has come to my attention that I have accidently given Martin two different sets of parents. To clarify. He is Martin son of Gregory by Alice. Just so you know.

[Blackfridayrule]

Ok cool :)

[LadyAnnaLee]

I have written and scraped three versions of what Harai tells Ridahne next and I just can't find a version I am happy with. I knew where I was going with this scene, but it appears I have lost it somewhere along the way. I beg for your patience as I try to find it again. Though it might not be for a while. I have a busy day tomorrow and my family and I have booked Thanksgiving weekend solid. Thank you for your patience, and if you have any ideas about Harai I would welcome them.

[Blackfridayrule]

No worries take your time!

I'm not sure exactly what I had in mind when I started rolling with him but if I think of anything I'll let you know

[Blackfridayrule]

sorry my post is so short, I guess i was feeling brief lol.
