Welcome back!
Hooray, my beloved LJ and friends are back! It's been a curse and a blessing that LJ has had such terrible connectivity woes this week. A curse in that I've missed zoning out and reading my friends list. A blessing in that I didn't spew woe and unhappiness upon my friends via this medium.
It has not been a good week in my neck o' the woods. Oh heck, it hasn't been a good summer. Work stresses spiralled into emotional and physical stresses and the whole affair became particularly unpleasant. BUT today is the first in what-feels-like forever that I've felt good and cheerful and I'm very happy to be back in that place.
The only Pennsic packing I've done is put the bedding in the blue trunk and rearrange the candle holders in their plastic tote to make room for new lanterns. Thankfully, everything camping-related lives in baskets and plastic totes and canvas bags on its own dedicated shelving unit in the laundry room. It's just a matter of hauling everything out of the basement (and the blue trunk down from the craft room) and playing tetris in the back of the Highlander. Easy peasy. It also helps that I'm coming home from land grab and don't have to worry about packing clothes and hats and shoes and stockings and undies and jewelry and all the personal STUFF.
Wheels up for Land Grab at 9am Saturday. Whoo hoo!
