My goodness, was this weekend packed. Hubbyfink and I attended the Ponte Alto newcomers' meeting at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
courtney_d_h's house Friday night. Unfortunately, we didn't have any newcomers, but we did get to geek about shoes and pattens and clothing and movies and events and all sorts of other things. We got home very late.
Hubbyfink and I spent a lot of time in the basement Saturday morning, trying to decide what we wanted to do in the storage area to make it more user-friendly. Our ideas include a LOT of weeding and selling/giving away stuff. I finally carried all the clean Pennsic clothes upstairs and staged them for pressing. After putting away several loads worth of clean "everyday" clothes, we washed up and headed over tocarthew and tirloch's to paint silk banners and celebrate a certain someone's birthday with BBQ and chocolate chip mint ice cream. Towards the end of the evening, we were all pretty punchy and Aelfred and MissyAnne devised a new music laurel test involving rubber bands and tongue depressers. Let's just say that my apprentice sisters and I are afeared.
Sunday involved a lot of Super Mario Galaxy, ironing, more laundry-putting-away, cleaning, and the baronial business meeting. Nothing much out of the ordinary beyond my volunteering to autocrat an event in either November or December (depending upon site availability). Ack! The budget passed and I have a full event staff. I tell you what: I've never felt quite so loved as when folks started saying "I'll run [a particular aspect] for you." My friends and Barony rock.
So, keep your eyes peeled for more information about the Winter's Welcome Revel. Singing, dancing, a chess tourney, a silent auction, good food, and more cameraderie than you can comfortably shake a stick at.
Here endeth the weekend.
