Catching Up

Since our last meeting (which was apparently just about two weeks ago), here's just some of what's happened:*

• Completely cleared out my office for the first time in at least six years.
• Went to a very weird reenactment near Kansas City.
• Went antiquing and found the aforementioned brooches.
• Called 2 dances.
• Had oral surgery and subsequently six stitches in the roof of my mouth.
• Gave a knitting lesson in Spanish.
• Drove to Potosi and back.
• Went antiquing again, but only found one huck towel.
• Went to a dance weekend and called there too.
• Quietly resolved that these were no longer my people.
  
• Went antiquing again and found some 1864 sheet music from the Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair.
• Cooked greek lemon chicken for 180 people.
• Finished the trim on my reproduction bathing costume.
• Worked in my LYS.
• Bought cardinal needles from Serendipity Needles (review: better than expected)
  
• Was on television.
• Missed it because I was at Stitch N' Pitch and also forgot to set the VCR.
• Finished a knitted t-shirt.
• Began a chevron scarf.
  
• Began another pair of socks.
• Began a chenille ballet-wrap sweater.
• Knitted the back of a bolero jacket.
  
• Had a week-long "foodie visit" (their words) from my parents.
• Went to Guido's, Viviano's, Berterelli's, and Missouri Baking Co.
• Went to Fast Eddie's, R. Pizza Farm, a Grafton pub crawl/miniature golf tournament, and the Fin Inn.
• Struggled to keep from telling my father that a man who didn't know as recently as the 1980s that he needed to drain tuna doesn't really need to be lecturing us about food.
  
• Ate at Aya Sofia and Ted Drewes.
  
• Started the first day of summer school.
  

There may have been more; I can't be certain. Tomorrow, back to our regular schedule.
