precis; full update later.

Plimoth was amazingly amazing again, but I have a teleconference this morning, so I will have to update a bit later. I hit the wall Sunday night about 200 miles out of Providence (on the plane), and still hurt quite a bit, so I think that speaks to a fair amount of work done.

In other news, non-profit people with tax numbers are coming to take away some of the old bits of the farmhouse, so we get a tax write-off for some of it - that's good.

And the curator for the Royal School of Needlework e-mailed me this weekend with a question.

My plan for world domination is coming along nicely.

Gotta go; training awaits.

I'll detail once I've answered everything - I got in late enough last night that I didn't read my e-mail. :)

If Plimouth means what I think it does I am green with envy. I'm hoping to make one of the January sessions, assuming the weather holds and lets me fly half-way across the country. the project is so cool! Not to mention an email from the RSN :) :).

Please do get involved with the Plimoth project! One of my assignments is to write glowing descriptions of the sessions so that people will be so overcome with the awesomeness of it all that they'll all come to help. Pinkleader and I are tentatively making plans for January, too.

Go to the Plimoth website (www.plimoth.org) and click on "The Embroiderers' Story".

I've been recruiting through the local EGA and SCA since May :). Sampler is done and a friend and I are looking at the Jan 20th session, hopefully with time at the MFA on the way home. Which one will you be at? I've been inputing a bit on the lace too. My morning fix is to check the blog :). Can't Wait!!

We haven't decided yet, but January sometime.

If you go to the MFA, be aware that most of their costume stuff is *not* on general display, and that there is a wait time to get to see anything particular. If you want to see something specific, contact them *now* (as in, today) and ask about it. Most museums have a 3-6 month waiting list for curator time.

Thanks for the heads-up, already contacted them and have a tentative time lined up. Most of what I would like to see is not on display so it is going to be a real treat. January can't come fast enough :)! Hope you decide on the 20th, would be nice to meet in person.
