Hats off to OddyC for the tale, and Edd Case for the map. In this #1 EP, I'm getting the feel for time travel. Somehow I don't think the whole gathering process will be this easy!

So far, handling things in the past as the first matter of business seems to have been a good decision. I'm feeling somewhat uneasy about the present, but it's the future that has me really worried!

I've finally realized that there is HUGE puzzle element to this world (past, present, and future). Solving which part affects which other part, and why, and how, is going to make the biggest difference to finishing the map, so that's my main goal at this point.

Solving bits and pieces of the puzzle is exhausting, but when even one answer is discovered, it's very rewarding. Getting a few vines to start growing was one of those minimal yet HOORAY moments!!!

I am so stoked! I figured something out, and (at least for the moment) I am making some progress! Will that continue past this episode, though? What happens if/when I REALLY have to face the ugly future? That is the big question!!!

Gathering precious gems underground in the present (facilitated by the use of the future to penetrate the great seal) has been calming. However, my basic allotment of time is all but over, and still the future keeps nagging...what about the netherrack?

Posting more quickly because I still have (LOL) five more episodes before this is all over. This time, I get several chances to become more intimate with my friendly, helpful snowman!

While gathering trading goods for the villagers, I also spend a bit of time checking the future for vines, to no avail. Then there's still the mind-wracking netherrack puzzle. Hang in there...only four more episodes to go! LOL

Episode #10... Playing Time: 24 Minutes, 31 Seconds (to date: 232:38)
I had intended to get all 13 of my episodes uploaded before January 1, but it couldn't happen. Two weeks ago my husband went into the hospital with lobar pneumonia. While there, it was identified that his aortic valve is opening only a small fraction of what it should be. As soon as the rest of the pneumonia is gone (he's been healing well), he will be back in the hospital having open heart surgery for the valve replacement and a single bypass.
While we have been waiting for the surgery and having our family Christmas together with him temporarily out of the hospital, thankfully, our corner of the far northeastern area of South Dakota, U.S., was hit by a huge ice storm with high winds, that took out our power beginning Christmas night until very late the night of December 29. We had no light, no heat, and of course, no computers or internet.
We were finally able to get to my sister's home 35 miles away, on the 27th. They also had no power (and no running water), but they had heat. We combined our food and water resources, and added our 10 people to their four. We were finally able to leave them in peace and get home late in the afternoon of December 30.
I will upload the other three episodes, just because I'm stubborn, now that we're home again, but it still might take me a little while. David's surgery can't happen, now, until at least the week of January 8, because his lung isn't totally clear of the pneumonia yet, but I have legal papers and financial aid applications to fill out, etc. (David has no health insurance).
In the meantime, I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, and that you are beginning a fantastic year as we enter 2017 together. Blessings upon you all!
