ianukSo, if you haven't heard ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
duchess_asa's water broke and she and american_knight are the the hospital. Squee! So, I'll keep you posted.
Yesterday was very busy on the paperwork front at work. Finally got information pulled out from one of my coirkers that can never answer my questions 1)on time and 2)actually answer the question I asked. Its like pulling teeth. But I got the variance and the change notice written and just a few more tweaks and they can get into review. DOM Dave and I got together for our weekly data pull and the numbers are looking good. We both got bonuses for our work on it and that is a good thing...still more work to do but its all good. Then I left a bit early to get a jump start on the house cleaning and boy did it need it.
cayswann commented recently that she's never really unpacked from trips etc in the last little bit and I can completely relate. Also, we haven't been having game night due to SCA things and the house has not been getting the weekly pickup and clean it used to..plus you add that we've both been sick for over 2 weeks and well, its a mess. So, I got the front room pretty much taken care of and I had started in on the kitchen when mel got home. He took the initiative and got the family room clean and he picked up and vacuumed both of those rooms as well as wiping down his bathroom. The kitchen wasn't too bad but I had dishes to put away, wash and load..plus the counters and the stove needed a wipe down. I need to do a deep clean before my fall baking blitz happens. Fruit cake will be made early this year since Baron Christopher was scoffing at my ability to make good fruit cake. Well, he's getting some! Coronation is gonna be fun!
So got the house cleaned and then headed out for sushi with the old crew + a few new faces. Wow, such good stuff and good company. Mel was all about me getting out to have sushi which made me happy. Though, seriously, we need to have home cooked dinner tonight cause man, I'm sick of eating out. Plus I need to make some extra stuff for the household to share. All good.missdoom thanks for sending some rainy weather...it was just at 68 this am when I went to my car and the horizon is full of rain clouds. Plus, I heard some on the patio roof sometime in the night. It smelled almost like fall...so close now. Well, sushi was good and we ate not to bursting (just close). Then it was time to pile in cars and head to scribble at my house. richarddbrewer was awesome sauce and was over working on things so a few of our early arrivers were already there. Thank you! Got things organized and then Princess Cecilia arrived and we had a good time. Scribble stuff happened, paper was cut, designs got hashed out, assignments got given and we had a good time. I even got some research done for my last A&S project and had things pulled for my docs for my other. Its gonna be a busy month. Sighs.
Mel had made the comment that we don't seem to every get less busy, its just different busy. Well, time to get cracking.

Boo on not being able to see you at Coronation...we can't make GWW due to Dragon's Horde so sighs. We'll see each other at Estrella at least. BTW, when is the CD out?

I finished the vocals, but we'll see how long the boys take to engineer and master the thing. As for a solo SCA CD? I'm giving myself about a 3-year window to work on that project. :)
Mreh?
