kareinaThe plan for the day had been to do some uni work, then head to uni to put in an appearance at the SCA fighter practice, which had been moved from the normal location to the Uni in hopes of recruiting students visiting the campus for the "Open Day", then attend a meeting of the local (in town) SCA peers then do more uni work.
However, I was woken up this morning by a text message stating that the meeting needed to be moved to this morning instead of after fighter practice because otherwise one (or more?) of the peers wouldn't be able to attend due to work commitments and could I please let![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
baronsnorri know, since he needs to turn off his mobile at night (it makes the radio crackle) and hadn't yet turned it on that early in the morning. So I stumbled out, passed on the message to him and went back to bed long enough to do my morning sit-ups etc. I then had just enough time to get a shower, put some food into to the rice cooker and have breakfast before it was time to pack the food for later and head to the meeting. The meeting was just long enough to finish the seam on the sleeve of that cardigan I'm making out of what had been a knit dress. Then I ate my lunch as we drove off to "fighter practice", which was a bunch of us SCA folk visiting with one another, but only one person in armour. Not certain what happened to the combatants who normally attend the Sunday practice, but they certainly weren't in attendance at this "demo" (possibly because it was a demo?).
After that it was home, make some bread, go for a walk withbaronsnorri and my apprentice, and then finally settle in to uni work around 18:30. Managed two hours of work wherein I got another 463 words written, took a break to edit clovis_t's presentation tomorrow summarizing what he's doing for his Honours' thesis. After that I did another hour of uni work setting up what will, I hope, be another figure and lead to more words written, but then we realized that it is getting late, and we'd best do our yoga and get to sleep so that he's ready to do that presentation tomorrow.
