Goodness it's been almost a month since I've been here. I don't know what I've been doing but I sure have been busy doing something. I had my first Kings Daughter's Circle meeting and that took some getting ready for. For once everything was put away and the house was neat and clean. I bet my lost library book is somewhere in that "put away" place where it may never turn up again.
I'm getting ready for my trip to Santa Fe for Left Coast Crime which is just a week away. The best part will be sunshine every day; I can hardly wait. For early March it hasn't been so bad that I can't get out in the yard to clean up the flower beds but I miss the sun on gloomy days like today. Every day I have a tour: Taos, Bandolier Monument, Literary Walking tour and Chimayo wine tasting and lunch. There are some panels I want to see also but I don't know if any will fit in with my tours. I'm looking forward to seeing my friends again whom I haven't seen since my last con in October.
Then there's daylight savings time which is another story entirely. It seems too early in the month to be changing. It just started being light in the morning and now it's dark again.
Noteworthy this month was the World War I reenactment that Ty and I went to last Sunday. There were tents set up and a trench. One of the soldiers explained about the equipment that each soldier had. The gas masks didn't look very efficient but I guess they were better than nothing, maybe. The battle was especially fun with smoke from the guns and gas. The museum was surprisingly well done and very interesting.
Laura and the girls are going to Disney World this week so I won't have any driving duties except for whatever I do with Ty. I know I'm driving the carpool to school tomorrow and Ty to Best Buy Tuesday (after Mah Jong) but that's it so far. There's still kitty sitting duties but that just takes an hour or so each day. Maybe I'll take some time out for shopping.
Book news later, I have to go read The Leopard by Jo Nesbo. It's too big to carry around with me so I have to read it here. Better get busy. No editing done today
