   Things here are far too busy for much other than work and home renovations. 
Being a homeowner is taxing enough, but running a small business to pay the 
bills is a true mess. I don't know how the folks with families manage to fit 
them in.  Actually, the business is usually either feast or famine. This week 
things are calm. Next week I expect matters to be hopping and so off and on for 
the next few months.

  And I you all. I have given local events an occassional stab, but just haven't 
had any real enthusiasm. I keep trying to get to fencing or dance practice, but 
things just crop up...

  I know that Niall and Teleri had a copy and there may be one or two others in 
the barony. At present, we are between printings and I need to nudge my copy 
editor again. Our book on _Fiefs_ is sitting in my kitchen to be run to the 
printer this week. I expect to be down in mid-December for my kid sister's 
graduation from the State Dept. training program and hope to drop by if anything 
is going on that weekend.

  You know the feast and famine routine too then. Good luck with it and wish the 
barony my best. With luck and fortune, I should be down for Birthday this 
winter, and the summer University session.
