Getting ready for Readercon
Today was spent getting things ready for driving up to Readercon. I printed off the signs for the book table. I bookmarked some articles to read later. We cleaned out the car, found the thing-gummy for attaching to the roof rack to hold extra stuff, and got the bookcases for the table out of storage. Then we went through the boxes and got the lids on them to protect the books when we stack the boxes.
But before all that we finished planting the rest of the tomato plants in the garden. We’d been trying to get the garden in all week. The salad garden isn’t ready for picking yet but we’ve already gotten some Roma tomatoes out of one plant. The taste of home grown is so different from store bought (and safer too).
Now, all that needs to be done is to pack our stuff and electronics. Tomorrow, we get up at 0’dark 30, shower, dress, eat breakfast, finish packing the car, then hit the post office, CVS (some antihistamines to help keep the poison ivy from coming back), and the bank. Luckily, all the stops are on the way so it shouldn’t slow us down much.
I even managed to get some spinning time in along with everything else.
