Construction update
The scaffolding is all gone. Huzzah! The place looks huge,inside and out, without all the metal and wood around it. Good thing they are moving right along, since we may have our first snow on Monday...

Live on Bulgarian TV - Medieval Reenactors!
Here's a 30 minute show about the reenactor's hobby. In Bulgarian, but interesting to watch! It's the show at 16:00 in the playlist. We need to recruit some of them for the College!

Today's Excitement
is brought to you by the word "container". Our container of household goods is at the port of Thessaloniki. It will be here in one week. Hopefully, the roof will be finished by then! Argh!

Tired but happy
The Gala went very, very well and I am barely keeping my eyes open today. In fact, I think I will head home shortly! I saw lots of old friends, heard some great music and participated in the silent auction (a fundraiser for the Student Hardship Grants.). I had the winning bid on a pair of tickets to Lord of the Dance next month at the National Palace of Culture. It will be an excellent evening!

Gala!
I'm heading home to get changed and to wait for the driver who's taking me to Sofia. I'm looking forward to seeing old friends and praying that the program goes well. Fingers crossed! Pictures tomorrow, hopefully.

Quiet Sunday
Made it through the Board Meeting, now there's just the 20th Anniversary Gala tomorrow. I'm planning to take a day or two off this week so I can get ready for our stuff to arrive from the US. It's supposed to be in Thessaloniki tomorrow and here a week later. The shipper says it's the fastest arrival from the US they've ever heard of!
I'm hoping that I can actually find some of my embroidery materials in the packing and have enough time to take a break this week and sew. We'll see...

New Book!
I took a Board member out to see Blagoevgrad today and she wanted to go to a bookstore for souvenirs. Well, I never say no to a bookstore and look what I found!
I suspect scribes will really like the content of this one!
