Checking In

I've been largely out of it the past few days. While my cold has largely vanished --my lungs are much clearer and I'm no longer carrying a box of tissues with me everywhere I go-- my energy level is a fraction what it should be. On good days, my mornings start at 70% of my normal energy level and I lose 10% per hour until I'm depleted at dinner time. Bad days are even worse. Still, each day is getting better. Good thing today was a company holiday.

The A2 square dance blitz weekend with Ken Ritucci in Baltimore went well, I think. We had three squares and a few extra dancers, mostly from Baltimore and DC with a few extras from Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. Ken got them through the entire Advanced list; [livejournal.com profile] kent4str and I will have to spend a lot of time drilling the calls, working them from different formations and such.

[livejournal.com profile] kent4str will be calling for the Chesapeake Squares Tuesday night, me for DC Lambda Squares on Thursday and [livejournal.com profile] kent4str again for the Zig Zaggers Friday.

We went to the C2 class tonight although I was feeling too weak to dance. New calls included "loop" and "offset lines/waves"... at least I could see them if I couldn't dance them.

[livejournal.com profile] cuyahogarvr headed to Cleveland this morning; he'll be back on Friday. Hopefully, we'll still be alive and the house will be more or less intact when he returns. And, yes, I know where the chicken broth is.

Going to bed now.
