Short reprieve

The pace of departures has slowed a little. I have one more night with all my kids at home. Tomorrow morning at 0’dark-thirty I pack Gleek and Patch into the car to hand off to my brother. The extra time is greatly appreciated even though it was caused by extra-hecticness for my brother. In part I’m grateful for the time because I’m beginning to come down with the cold that Howard brought home from Comic Con. I’m treating it with vitamin C, lots of water, and stopping to rest a lot. Hopefully that will be sufficient. I need to be on top of my game at Worldcon. Of course, this means I’m not on my game right now when I’m supposed to be managing the last minute packing. Hopefully I won’t forget anything.
