Feeling reasonably accomplished. You may have noted some antique Press Room Shanty Sing threads refreshed up above the line.

The notes I had taken about who attended and what was sung just surfaced -- 2009 and 2010.

Before Tom lost his voice, I taped the sessions (2003-2009) and transcribed the information onto J-cards. I didn't post the list at the thread. Recently I've started taking the information from these J-cards and putting it into the same format I now use to wrap up the thread. A hard copy goes into my yearly archive binders. Needless to say, it's a work in progress. (I've done 2003 and part of 2004.)

These notes that just rose to the top of the pile next to the computer (seven, including the first Barry Finn Memorial Singaround) I just digitized and posted to the threads. I still have the one from October 16, 2010 to do...but not today.

I got a lot of the dishes out of the sink and either washed and put away or into the dishwasher. Changed the pillowcases on the bed. Maybe tomorrow I'll move my library (and notebooks, and papers, and magazines) off the bed and change the sheets. Got a couple complicated semi-business (PMFF) emails written and sent, finally connected with someone I've been playing phone tag with and got THAT business taken care of, and took a bag of Bavarian beef soup and a package of chorizo out of the freezer. That should take care of my next few meals and use up stuff in the freezer. Oh, and I took a pile of boxes, plastic storage containers, and a bunch of other things down to the cellar so they're out of the way. I didn't get the rug bagged to take to Goodwill, but I can do that tomorrow.

Better sign off -- got to pick up something at the store on my way to Portsmouth to see "Boyhood" at the Portsmouth library.
