When I woke up I wrote out a few checks to send out to cover bills this month. Also addressed envelopes for the reports going to the regional rep. Turned out I should have been preparing to head back to Omaha a little more quickly as Leofwyna had set up an appointment with the attorney to start the probate proceedings early this afternoon. Fortunately I was quick enough getting ready that we were very nearly on time; enough so that we waited briefly for the attorney who was running late too. Turns out things are going to be in good order, no foreseeable problems, only six months probate.
Back at the apartment I continued working in the bedroom while Leofwyna worked on her 'memorial posters' with many pictures of Little Sister to share with friends and relatives Friday. In the evening we put on a movie and I settled in with my banner embroidery for a little relaxation while Leofwyna continued spiffing up her posters.
FRIDAY
Friday afternoon was the memorial gathering for Little Sister and it turned out really well. Lots of remembrances from people we knew and lots more from people we only knew existed and more from people we'd never heard of. We had a traditional Danish coffee (which always includes sandwiches and a sweet) and sat informally around tables visiting and laughing. We even had a little 'roast' on Little Sister who was always a great storyteller herself so I'm sure she would have appreciated the stories being told on her that afternoon.
After loading up and getting Leofwyna back to the apartment I had to head back home and be ready for our event. Leofwyna insists that I must use Little Sister's nice red car as it's a much more recent model than mine so I loaded it up with clothing I'll take directly to consignment shops Monday; there's precious little space for more stuff in our little house and we're going to have to figure out where to put things we're keeping.
SATURDAY
It was a good day for MagMor with Winter War Maneuvers with sunny skies offsetting the chill. I closed troll by one and had the deposit ready to run to the bank when I went out for lunch. I was back in time to see Bristol receive his Fyrd during a field court. I learned Seraphima authorized, too. At the regular court at the end of the day we witnessed Vatavia's investiture of their new baron/baroness. Then MagMor's Wilhelm Halftroll received a torse, Gyda Glora and Dwolm received leather mallets and Chiara and Yoichi got their AOAs. A highly satisfying event all 'round. I found I was thoroughly exhausted and headed home to become a lap for the cat and little else!
Oh yes, I did kill the mouse. No... not the furry grey kind but the mouse on my computor. Fortunately Leofwyna is a rebater and had a new one in the backup box and in short order I was back to catching up on reading email and journals. I didn't generate much myself as I was sleepy and didn't trust my 'filters'... that had to wait another day.
SUNDAY
This morning I was up early to head downtown to help clean the post revel site meeting up there with Natalya, Rosa, Aibhilin and Yoishi and got done in little more than an hour. This afternoon while catching up with emails and stuff the monitor went black on me and couldn't raise Leofwyna on the phone. I wanted her to bring back Little Sister's monitor with her as that's not something she's got hidden away in the box. Now we'll have to wait a week 'til we can bring it back so journaling may be spotty for awhile. When she showed up from Omaha we unloaded the van and headed out to a movie, Valkyre, and stopped in at the UNL computor lab for this little stretch on-line at adjoining desks. It's nearly time to head home and molify the cat again.
Meanwhile, I'm making mental lists that need to be managed this month.
