Curia

Every month or two there is the local SCA business meeting.  Today was a long one because it was also the planning meeting for the large event at the end of the month.  My list of things to do is suddenly much longer.  I didn't take on anything new.  I hadn't processed in my head how soon the event is and how many things I need to do and organize before then.  There are lists now and hopefully K and I will start checking things off tomorrow. 

Tomorrow is also when I hope to go to the gym.  It has been far too long and I need to either start going again or cancel the membership.  I've been making better food choices (not always great, but better) and need to bring the exercise part of my healthy choices more into focus now.  K and I are hoping to make Monday our night for the gym while Z and Gideon are at Scouts. 

My happy for today is getting some more Christmas gifts.  These were rather unexpected but isn't it grand when people think of you?  I wish I had the gift of giving.  Like I never feel like I do a good job.  Also today, I got to use one of the earlier gifts I was given, a metal straw.  I have been carrying it around with me and finally got to pull it out tonight.  We went out to dinner after the meeting and I got water and used the straw.  I am happy to say that I didn't notice any metal flavor.  Dinner and the company were awesome too.

I am also happy that the two new people that I met on Friday came to the meeting today.  I'm not sure if they are happy to have gone to the meeting, but I am glad they were there. 

I saw this couple in a Michael's today and had to take their picture.
