arontius | Back to Work.

.....Greetings,

.....I should have taken an extra day off. But the guilt side of me kept seeing the mound of paperwork at my desk and reminding me that one more day just means several more inches to the pile. :-) I'm here now and it's bad, but not too bad. Just have to finish waking up and make my brain move in the correct direction. It's still fuzzy from the weekend.

.....Got all the laundry done. All the stuff I pulled out of Lobelia is either put away or drying in the basement (stuff we set aside on Thursday night set up was still wet from the downpours we had that day). I made heavy inroads into the e-mail traffic. Started the files for the September issue of The Crier.

.....Thinking that the best way to thank as many people as possible for their work on July Coronation is to take out a full page in The Crier to do so. Being the editor does have a few perks to it. :-)

.....Going to try and get caught up on lawn work this week. The jungle is about to be tamed!!! The damned raccoons are about to lose their play field. Will serve them right, the nasty buggers. I hate them. Every time I make the pond look pretty they gleefully come in and rip it to shreds. I hate them as much as Cedric hates squirrels. :-)

.....Putting together the last bits of armor. I'm going to drag my butt back to practice starting on the 26th. I don't need to be a good fighter. I'm just looking to be competent enough to be on the war field at Estrella. I'm definitely going next February and it has always been a dream of mine to participate in at least some of the battles. Time to make that happen before I take on another commitment. :-)

.....I'm also determined that it is time to get the hot tub fixed. That's on the 'to-do' list this week as well.

.....And several sonnets are looming on the horizon. :-)

.....Well, back to work. Wish me luck in making it through the day without going postal on someone. :-)

.....Aaron / Arontius.
