The moon... she is a comin' back. yeah.

I would wave a flag in the air, but I'm afraid I just don't particularly have the energy. At least my brain seems clear for the first time in at least 10 days or so. Wow, this season packed a wallup!

Last night I hosted Kingdom Scriptorium. I was tired, but I'm glad the gang came over. It sorta forced me to work on a scroll, which I really NEED to get finished. It is all done, but the outlining. I should hopefully be able to finish that on Sunday.

Let's see... general updates....

Work-front: Not as stressful as last week, but still butting heads over some issues at the county level. Trying to keep them happy, but it ain't easy.

SCA-projects:

- Scrolls: making progress. Keeping a good eye on who in the scriptorium is working on which scroll and what phase it is on. Heck, it is hard enough for me to remember where I leave off on my own projects, much less the rest of them. Kudos to Aliskye for tracking things on an even larger basis!
- Metalwork: Casting complete. Clean-up to go.
- Sewing: for me, on hold. Cloak handwork to finish up for elevation.
- Dance: Teaching another workshop this weekend. Looking forward to B.R.B., and then to taking a LONG break from dance instruction to recharge my batteries. Well... except for the dance demo for B.R.B., the demo for Yule, and teaching for Yule... (Sigh... I guess I WON'T get a break for a while).
- Cooking: Need to come up with W.W. lunch menu when I get a breather.
- Newcomers: Graduation at Yule. D'oh! Need to cast tokens for them. Note to self. One more full session to run, and then I'm done. I enjoy the newcomers, but I'm TIIIIIRED.
- Collegium: I really think I'm gonna try to NOT teach at this next collegium. I would like to TAKE classes for a change.
- A&S: Starting to do assignments to gear up for Kingdom office. If the powers that be still choose to have me by that time, I hope I can do this kingdom justice.

- General SCA observation: I like Caid. I respect Caid. Caid is unique. Caid is NOT the West, nor does it need to be. Nuff said.

House-projects:

- Putting together some noshies for a historic presentation next week. Giles will be giving the lecture to people from the City of Anaheim. I will be cooking fun Victorian noshies from a 1903 cookbook. Should be fun!

- Mrs. McCavity and I need to put together a menu for the Victorian Xmas dinner. Never a dull moment!

- Garden - whenever I get a spare moment.

I think I need a nap.
