Thanksgiving dinner was quiet. I fumbled timing a bit -- not entirely my fault, I don't think. My suspicion is that the new microwave is not quite as powerful as the old one, and cooking just takes longer in it. But it was done, and the rolls hadn't cooled off, so that was good.
Yesterday's FCB rehearsal was cancelled on account of somebody thought it would be fun to threaten the school and the police closed the building to evening activities. And we have a concert in less than two weeks. Ah well, being under-rehearsed just enhances concentration, right?
Tonight is the last LCCB rehearsal for the year - concert is this weekend. I need to go make my holiday accent - uniform is concert blacks with a 'festive' scarf or tie. I don't do loose scarves as a general rule, and certainly not with a bari sax hanging around my neck, so I'm making a red cowl. My partner in the bari sax section will be missing the February LCCB concert - something about an anniversary trip to Barbados.
Most of the holiday weekend storm missed us. We got high winds on Wednesday, and some rain on Saturday, but no wintry mix or snow. We got a slight dusting of snow Sunday night, but five miles away in town they didn't even get that. No sun, and not above freezing yesterday, so the snow is still on the grass but gone off the paving.
I need to do the holiday baking, especially since most of it is being sent off to points south (Mum + AC get a box, and EU gets a box). I'll be stuck home on Thursday while my car is in the shop, so I think that's what I'll do then.
