Life Chugs Along
May. 3rd, 2006 08:47 amNothing much to report really... life has been relatively calm as I'm in the space between our Ohio trip last weekend and the Delaware trip this coming weekend.
I was handed a tonne of additional documentation to assemble, write, edit & publish on Monday, or so it seemed. On Tuesday, I went through my notes, looked at the fragmented materials on hand and interviewed some people who would be offering input into the project: it's not going to be as bad as I thought. There is still work to be done and I have relatively few workdays available in May to do the work, but I'm currently feeling much more relaxed about my deadlines than I did 24 hours ago.
We were planning to have a birthday dinner Tuesday in honour of a friend who celebrated a birthday yesterday, but our friend's schedule is overloaded and we got an emergency call from Dayle asking us to call Baltimore's club night. We'll have that celebratory dinner some other time. Like November. This last minute rescheduling also meant I missed the live coverage of the Canadian federal budget. sigh
Last night's club night was one of our smoothest so far. I think we're getting the hang of it. :-) With the Chesapeake Squares' fly-in "Pass The Ocean, Hon" coming up this weekend, we had a relatively large turnout. A handful were simply toiling in the back on last minute event coordination while many others we haven't seen in a while were clearly working on getting themselves back up to speed on certain calls.

kent4str and I will both be calling during the GCA blocks at the upcoming fly-in so I was happy to have the opportunity to test drive some new A2 material. Well, not exactly new... most of it I had used in the prior club night and a few figures --to put it mildly-- bombed. Based on last night's efforts, it appears my retooling of those figures has helped immensely.
Tonight is reserved for grocery shopping and packing; I hope to be on the road to Rehoboth, DE, in the mid-morning tomorrow.
