End of the week.

I've been doing pretty good doing achievements, I'm caught up and a little bit ahead, and I'll probably need it.


As of now, I'm thinking I'll be focusing on just getting achievements and leveling alts.  I have a lot of quests left over from my garisson inn to get random toys and pets, so I'm just going to do those and level alts.  Considering how much I've been ignoring dungeons, it will probably net me a few achievements as well.

HAPPY TUESDAY

I guess happy Tuesday is a thing for WoW.  Dungeons reset, weekly quests reset, I get another gold farmer from my head hunter, etc.

I am planning to replace all of my followers with followers that have the treasure hunting trait.  What is really awesome about this trait is that the gold benefit stacks with each follower.  Quests with gold rewards that need 3 followers could be a serious chunk of WoWcash.

Soloing raids is also a nice chunk of change as well.  I need to  be more diligent about it, especially getting my alts in on the action.  I have been slacking in the gold farming as well as the alt leveling department, especially while getting used to this life transition.

I managed to get two more achievements, finishing out this week on a Tuesday (how did THAT happen?)  I do plan on banking up some achievement points as well, if I can free up a couple weeks then I can focus on gold farming and alt leveling in preparation for the next expansion.

And I get to transfer my main and it's 7-tab guild soon!  YAY SERVER WITH AN ALIVE ECONOMY!!!!1!!1!ELEVEN!

Well, I really need to do IRLdishes, and IRLlaundry, and some IRLwork-from-home-work, so I better wrap this up.

Just more achievements

Happy Monday.

Bleh.


Even 'working from home' Mondays suck quite a bit.


Despite this, I still managed achievement.

(Seems easy, but with the life changes, any respite I get is pretty major.)

Completely caught up! LEGION TRAILER!

Through some miracle (and perseverance) I managed to catch up.  I'm at 0 for this week, so now I can continue on my quest as planned.

Also, in exciting news, Legion is planned for summer of 2016.  While I wouldn't mind more time to get my affairs in order, its nice to have a deadline for goals.

So, my goals for Legion:

Keep up with 7 achievements a week.
All high-level alts to 100.
All gold debts paid off to hubby.
Gold cap by release.


Too lofty?  Absolutely.  But there's this saying about shooting for the moon and at least you land by the stars.  Except the moon is closer...and you'll just jump out of a tree...and smash your face on a rock.


Still feeling kinda jaded.  But despite this, I'll probably add a gold counter soon, just for more WoW tracking funness.

Achieved:
I Want More Talador

So, uh, about draenor flying...

I figured a good way to spend my achievement goals was to work towards getting my flying mounts.  It's pretty annoying not to have one.  I'm not a fan of how they handled the flying mount situation in this expac, but there's a billion rants on the forums that I am sure have covered all points of what I would say.


But think I'm butt hurt about the flying thing...just wait until my husband tries to get his.  He hates questing.

*Chants* just make it to legion...just make it to legion

Master of Mounts

I finally managed to grab all six mounts from my garrison. I haven't worked on any of the other achievements that comes from the stables, I may work on that or look into it.  I'll have to transfer my character soon, now that I bought my bank slot from the guild vendor.

And get to gold cap.  I got a long way to go.

I'M BACK!

For the past couple weeks I haven't had my computer set up (had to redo the layout of my house.)  I have it back, and am very behind on achievements, but having a source of enjoyment/a hobby you like does wonders for your mental health.


I've definitely broken the chain of achieving seven achievements a week, but when the life horse bucks you off, just gotta get back on and make up for lost time!  I'm going to try to make up for the deficit of achievements I've lost.  Isn't perfect, but it keeps my achievement number climbing.


I'm kind of sad that I've missed out on Hallow's Eve achievement blogging time.  There is a wealth of achievements that this event could help you get, from pet leveling to alt leveling, but sometimes you just have to bow down to RL and accept that RL comes first sometimes.  (Can Sword Art Online become real?  Someone trap me in virtual reality.)

Luckily, I managed to get the two pets and toy that I didn't have in my collections.  Even though I didn't get my mount (no griping about it for this year, I definitely didn't give 100% trying to get it) I'm glad I got those.  Saves me a few thousand gold since I won't have to buy them.


My schedule in life has changed radically.  I have went from a 8-5 corporate whore job to a 24/7 caregiver job with a 16 hour part time corporate whore job.  You'd think living at home would allow for more WoW time, but it really doesn't.  Being a perfectionist, neat-freak caregiver takes up a lot of time, but I'm sure I'll adjust.


But hey, at least I get to wear my facial piercings and have cool hair again!


RL Achievements: 
-Return to Punk Rocker Self
-Sleep?  Who Needs Sleep?


Okay, anyway, it took me a while to figure out my deficit, but I think it will be fun, and having a goal to work towards will be mentally healthy.
