The lull before the storm...again.

Well, the weekend is at an end. The lead up to this magical weekend was very tense, very stressful, very painful and very fulfilling. I played viola, in public, for the first time since 1996 and it was nerve wracking but good. I played well, not my best but not bad considering the two weeks of practice. I wore a completely different century and I think I did that well, I got to see 2 really great guys get knighted, I got to see one of my bestest friends become an Excellency, I got to see my BFF become queen, I got to puppeteer a few things that made others happy(er) and today I got to relax and just sit.

I shall hopefully have more later but as of right now I'm tired, sore and well tired. We put on about 500 miles on the car, probably got a few speeding tickets (we'll see what comes in the mail) and this is my last few moments of quiet and I'm enjoying them.

Monday and Tuesday will be the longest days with getting everything packed and loaded for southern. I know I have laundry, scrolls and things to do, like fix our lanterns. But it looks like it will all work out so far. Its out last as B&B and its comforting to me that once again we have a very good core of folks handling things so all I have to worry about is getting there. I just hope my elbow is better enough to swing a hammer to pound stakes in...we shall see. But right now its calm and I'm thinking early bed for once this past week.
