Getting that darned sickness out of the way

Just as well we got all the illness out of the way (hah!) this past week/weekend, since the next two weeks are looking pretty crazy:

This week coming up …

• Monday: Margie’s “cooking” for a church adult ed class (one of a series). Fortunately, (a) she’s feeling better, and (b) she’s managed to come up with a very yummy meal all out of pre-made food from Safeway and Costco (Costco lasagna, frozen green beans, pre-made garlic bread, some sort of yummy ice cream bon-bon things, pre-cut salad).
• Tuesday: I have Vestry meeting most of the evening. First of the year (and of the last year of my term, praise Allah).

• Wednesday: Search Committee meeting, for about half the evening. Critical and important stuff to be discussed, as we move into our last month of activity — indeed, I expect there to be only one more official meeting of this sort.

• Thursday: Orientation meeting for Kindergarten at Franklin. Not long, but still a time chunk. Not sure if we’ll all three go, or just one of us.

And that’s not counting some major business meeting stuff I have this week, or fitting in some CoH time, or getting the house ready for an overdue house cleaning on Wednesday, or festivities next weekend, or getting Christmas decorations down, or even when the heck we’ll be able to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

(“Hey, honey! For Valentine’s Day I got you a free 14-day trial of City of Heroes — if you use it, and sign on permanently after that, I’m eligible for a slot in the City of Villains beta! Honey? Honey, what are you doing with that — OW!”)

Next week is equally insane, as we have our Search candidates out visiting (one following the other) and Monday-Thursday nights are taken up with dinners of various sorts, not to mention probably some daytime hours, too, followed by a Saturday Hungry Flock, followed by possible jury duty the following Monday, followed by …

Glad I’m not sick any more. Yupsirree! So glad …
