Veteran's Day and an Etiquette Question
2003-04-14 - 9:33 a.m.
Monday Madness
Not a bad weekend, all told... we've got grass seed down now.. probably more than we should have, but I'm figuring in the wild bird and dog eating factor.
We had a lovely bonfire, fate conspired against us and we had to replace a mailbox.
I got half of my reed sleyed (weaving); and I forgot to take into account that since I'm trying for 36 threads per inch, I might need more ends so I can have it be a foot across (finished width). I'll have ot see how it goes when I get done. Right now, I think I'm going to be a little short, but it'll be okay. It's not anything horrible.. just something I didn't take into consideration when I planned the project. Better that I find out about it now rather than later.
I've got to work on my exchequer's quarterly report so I can have it ready for Night Overboard. It shouldn't be that difficult...we had very little expenses this time around.
I've got one question.. but that can be answered pretty quickly and easily, with just an email.
The bonfire last night has really thrown my sinuses for a loop. I woke up this morning at 4AM convinced that the house was on fire (I smelled smoke...I didn't shower before I crawled into bed.)...that's pretty interesting for someone who really can't smell!
The dogs are coming with us to Sapphire Joust... so don't be surprised to see a weener dog and a much bigger dog being walked around at 6AM. They'll both be taking me for a drag!
Next week is night on board (overboard, around board... ennnh, we're going to Lochmere!)... the next weekend, Sarna comes for the weekend... Sarna and Gorm are going to work on the Bryce chairs and I'm going to work on a rendition of a Molly Brown table. Yeah, it's not period, but it's only two pieces and it folds relatively flat and reasonable.... and better yet, it's something *I* can do myself.
Okay.. that's enough of an update.. it's not quite 10:00a.m. and I've got work to get done... I did 74 on Friday, so I need to keep my number "reasonable".

This just in... it appears that our office will be moving to the newly renovated building next to La Diff and Bottoms Up Pizza...something about brick being so cool.... it's a warehouse for chrissakes! Supposedly it's being renovated.. hopefully better than the last renovated building I worked in. The good news is, they move the week we're at Pennsic! TGIP! After having moved one office in my career, I don't want to move a second one, ever again. All I have to do is pack my stuff in a box and unpack it at the new place.
Please don't forget to answer my survey... it's research for a small business idea... all comments appreciated, no reasonable offer refused!!! It won't take five minutes, I PROMISE!
