See Yule Next Year

We need to pack it up and save it for later in the year in order for it to be special when it is time to get it back out again.

I have been doing some passive planning and meta-processing for detailed stuff you won’t really see as a reader.
I’m still engaged with The Sentinels and Tales Of Olde Auringia, but I’m incredibly tired so it’s time for a break.
That’s all for today. See you back on Saturday for soup 🥣
