Weekend at Home

So far the weekend has been great.  Very nice weather and I had a fun morning with G2 in the cities and knitting on Saturday.
 I even found my cell phone before I knew it was lost!  Somewhere in the cities (near the museum I think) my phone fell out of my pocket and a nice [...]

17 weeks

I don’t believe I look this big… maybe it is the angle.  I’ve gained about 10 pounds and you can all see exactly where.  I have an apt Thursday so finger crossing for all good news.

I’m getting famous out there

Wow, I’m getting famous out there in blog comment land, in the past few days the topic of Lars and my upcoming reign has shanghaied 2 different comment sections then I’m on and I hear it is on a few more.  I suppose it means there are a lot of people that care and all [...]

Wow, hello new SCA people, hopefully the 40 or so new visitors due to the linkage will read my post below (and any other posts you feel like) and get a better feel for us.  I don’t intend this blog to be a bully pulpit for our reign but unlike last time I do hope [...]

Almost Friday

There is a huge part of me that wants to somehow skip work tomorrow but I know I have to go and have stuff to get done.  I think I’m just tired, both physically and mentally.  I think I’ve stayed up too late every night since last Thursday, last night was my earliest night but [...]

Many things to talk about! I abandoned the blog last week to sew, study, go to class, do tons of work work, and get the house in general shape for visitors. It was great to see my mom and grandmother who came on a sudden trip due to a family death (yes I do/did have [...]

Prince and Princess

We are home and victorious!
It was a great tournament, stressful and heart pounding (for me) but very fun and I am pleased with the outcome.  Winning this time feels different, I don’t know if it is because I know what to expect or that we were much more immediately inundated with advice, or, maybe I [...]

Too much going on

This week started out nice and mellow but has ramped up fast…
 Last weekend we did all the regalia review and photography.  Then it took me most of Monday night to type reasonable descriptions of everything and organize the spread sheet.
I also attempted to make a dress for Crown.
Crown is on Saturday but we start our trip tomorrow [...]

Happy Friday

Delurking day was very fun, I think I might delurk more often.  The actual day was really hectic because I was in a training all day that even included ‘lunch’ (greasy bad pizza) so I really could not read my blogs at leisure.  I also had to finish my last two questions on the exam [...]

I think I need to read more

These are the top 200 books most often marked as “unread” by LibraryThing’s users (as of today). As usual, bold what you have read, italicise what you started but couldn’t finish, and strike through what you couldn’t stand. The numbers after each one are the number of LT users who used the tag of that [...]

De-Lurking day

 Thanks to MissZoot who reminded me (and who is one of my favorite reads because she is both interesting and posts 3 times a day) and created the cool graphic that says that tomorrow is De-Lurking day. 
 I promise to comment on every single blog and LJ that I read, even if they don’t post tomorrow, [...]

New camera and new belly size

See why the maternity (fat) pants are now necessary…
Time to do more of the awlful test. If you are good at Financial Management call me!

Weekend update

Saturday I went to a coworkers wedding where I knew about 5 people.  I really felt like I should go since she and I are good work friends and she invited a ton of work people.  The wedding was about 40 min from home and at 3pm so I thought I should have no problem [...]
