So, for this year's 'Market Day at Birka' (an SCA vending event held in Manchester NH at the end of January) I will be bringing my new magnetic hatpins, and a few Byzantine-inspired cloak pins - and something else for the A&S display.

Hanging out at work with my buddy Skelesaurus Rex, tracking Santa with NORAD.

Happy Solstice to kith and Kin!

It's 5:30 am. Been awake for over an hour now. Screw it, heading to the gym (for the 1st time in months, I might add) Wish me luck? Am gonna need it.

I shall have to figure out whether cbd drops can be put in tea or cocoa because I can't vape at work and my Growly, grumpy, anxious levels are rising like the tide at full moon.

I have a date tonight! What kind of date, you ask???

A writing date! Gonna pull out the computer and start it up, do some writing with friends! SOOOOO EXCITED

OK, I have a question that I am going to post here and not fbook. I got written up today due to violation of attendance policy, and included in the dates that I was out of work were times I had Dr notes as well as when I was out with Covid and Emp Health told me that I couldn't come in. Now, my mgr spoke with HR before she gave me this, informing them

it's getting there!!

Eighteen Months After Our Shop Burned, We Are Almost...

What's new, you ask? Well Bear has managed to stay out of the ED for the past 2+ months! Our roomie's daughter moved out, and we finally finished moving out of the geodome and back up into our old 2nd floor bedroom again. (had moved out of it when I was having knee issues and then she moved in 5ish years ago, and we finally have our space back!!!

Yep, the perfect holiday side dish. And, more importantly, it's something I can make!
