weekend catching up.

The football game on Friday night was suspended at 2:12 in the first quarter due to lightning and was resumed at 1pm Saturday, without the band. Why "they" didn't look at the weather on Friday morning and notice that there was going to be a front coming through during the game and it was quite likely to be a stormy transition 'and hey, maybe we should pre-emptively reschedule the game for Saturday afternoon and save a lot of headaches/transportation woes/etc' I do not know. Every HS game in the area got suspended and finished on Saturday. (I did not go to the game on Saturday -- DB went in to work at the scene shop, and I ran errands. And recovered from the game -- I wound up being half of the Feed the Band crew (because whoever was supposed to do it didn't show), which included bonus "move full coolers and snack bins" as well as "load percussion stands onto the gator". I was a bit creaky on Saturday.)

Still haven't gotten the new bags for FCB done. Saturday I was too creaky and yesterday J was 3D printing. However, I should be able to get down there today -- the morning's "emergency" layouts* are done, and once the cat comes in (or SR comes down) I can get downstairs. OTOH, I did manage without the stand bag for a few months in spring, so it's doable, just not preferable.


(* --aka someone with no layout experience thought it would be easy to put text into Word templates and get printer-ready PDFs using Word's PDF generator. Erm, yeah. Not so much. And the printer needs the files ASAP this week for printing/binding for delivery early next week. So I've fixed the files she sent me, and am still waiting on a couple.)
