Work progressed and the guy who's paper I edited was very grateful for the help...he knows his writing isn't too par and I'm just one of the editors. Then Science Experiment Boy needed an editor as well and that wasn't too bad but its highly technical and that was tough to layman down a few sections. But I think I managed with good constructive comments. By that time I worked on a peer review and then had an utterly grumpy meeting about a project we've been working on. If a certain person could not show up to these meetings they would be more meaningful...sighs. I was still grumpy after pickup up things at

ceciliamowebray. Got home, unlaxed for a minute and then got to cleaning. BTW,

corinnemacleod, they make a stencil maker at Micheals/Joanns that is basically a glorified soldering iron with a special tip...you basically burn the stencil away.

Mel was a faboo hubby and had the kitchen done just as I got home. I got the guest room re-arranged (again), got the baronial stuff pulled from the nooks and crannies of my studio and various places around the house. Not as much stuff as I figured but the baronial box holds a lot. I'm sure we'll find things around the house for the next few weeks. Ivan is all about the "spring cleaning" this year and I'm okay with that. I want to purge a few closets and rearrange our bedroom. We shall see.

Got working on a scroll commission I'd been asked to work on by the recipient (see

scribe_ari's crazy callig. Got part of the illumination base painted and it looks good. We had funny discussions and the serious scroll turned into Finding Nemo which was very amusing. Got done painting and then laced myself into my new kirtle where we figured out that yes it fits, yet the cote has the proper spacing to go over it and yes, I did put the sleeves on the wrong sides. Sighs...so that come back onto the list but luckily I got the hem trimmed for it and I can start the edging...after I get the sleeves worked out. They are pinned and ready for sewing but I need to get the other machine up versus the buttonhole machine.
Anyhoo..it was a good night, folks were over to do research, scribble was scribbling, we realized that

sir_tighearnain has a very, very large melon and coffee is good.

I slept good though it was hard to get up this morning. Luckily we had left over coffee and the drive into work was nice. The weather was a bit cooler this morning and I'm okay with that.
