What, no gaming?

This looks to be a tough week -- between getting work done in the house and getting ready for Medieval Day at school, where I will be, along with another teacher, putting on a "Medieval Science" workshop. Looks like I probably won't have any time for FTF gaming, though I'm sure I'll have several moves this week in my Cyberboard and ACTS pbem HIS game.

On the home front, I have the following to do:

1.  Rip down "grass" paper from 2 walls so they can be painted.
2.  Power wash the deck and the back of the house.
3.  Box all my games and turn the dining room back into the dining room (not my 2nd game room).
4.  Go through my "stuff," box up what I can, mark other things for a garage sale (Deanna wants to have one, should be "interesting").
5.  Begin cleaning out the basement.

Man, my head (and back) hurt just thinking of this!

On the Medieval Science front, I still have to:

1.  Make a Powerpoint presentation for the classes we'll see.
2.  Get a costume (I think I'll be a monk).
3.  Finish buying materials we'll need.
4.  Test all our "experiments" to be sure they work.
5.  Go through a "dry run" with the teacher I'll be working with.

On top of all this, I need to give (and correct) a final Math test for 62 students and grade Social Studies projects on Medieval English Manors for 36 students.  My head's hurting again!

So, no FTF gaming this week, unfortunately.  I might take a break and head to Mike's for an hour or so when he and Bill start playing Third World War by GDW.  That will have to be enough to scratch my FTF gaming itch this week.

Of course, I have next Saturday, the 21st, to look forward to, as this will be the Rochester Gamers monthly meet.  I'm hoping for many games of Combat Commander and Command & Colors: Ancients!

And, last but certainly not least, I've gotta make time for my girls, Deanna and Cheyenne.  Wish me luck...
