On this addition of guess who is crazy....Purloined from a dead podcast
There used to be a segment on an old podcast called KIPing it Real which was "Guess Who is Crazy" and well it seems to be me...but its getting better. The Franchise bomb project is progressing really well. Hrafnheim just rocks my socks. Seriously. I had this idea and they are working towards it and its gonna be awesome. Its also been a big morale/camaraderie booster that is also good. Friday night we had a stitch and movie night and about 1030 miss Kissa stands up and goes and makes us from scratch scones. OMG. The bad part of friday was that I poisoned myself on pizza. The jalapenos that Dominos uses are coated in sulfites. By Saturday I was miserable but I didn't put it together until way late. Sunday was busy with me making carrot cake for the house meeting to celebrate Charmaine's bday and for me to have cake on my bday.
Little boy had a few bumps on Sunday. The first was my fault when I was changing him I let him crawl away with his pants round his ankles and he stood up took a few steps and then crashed head first into the tile. Later he was being all daredevilish and was climbing in and out of a little shopping cart of Holly's and he managed to pitch sideways (not the direction any of us expected him to fall) and then cracked himself in the same spot as before on the train table. Oof. Talk about feeling like a bad parent. But these things happen and as our pediatrician stated if a one-year old doesn't come in with a bruise on the noggin somewhere they aren't playing correctly. LOL.
By the end of Sunday I was still feeling like crap and mentally I was just exhausted. Plus my allergies were kicking my butt. I woke up on Monday and just called in. I was so tired and my head was pounding like a bass drum so I stayed in bed until 9am or so and then read until almost 11am before finally emerging from the bedroom to get breakfast/brunch. I made some phone calls and then relaxed which was what I needed. I got a chiro adjustment and then got my free eyebrow wax since it was my bday and then came home and cleaned my house. Not all of it but it was way better. Still lots to do and our 24hour home improvement project on Friday will hopefully help with the mess of stuff just cluttering the place. We are going to be cleaning and re-orging the storage room with new shelves and pitching stuff. We have things that need new homes and that is part one. The project after that is to mount the TV on the wall and get a new place to put all of the DVD's. We also need to redo some bookcases and just get rid of some clutter. As you can see the house is making me crazy(er) and its time to do things about it.
So monday was a sick/home day and it was good to sleep (omg that was wonderful) and then spend time to myself and just clean the house. I know silly to clean your house on your own birthday but it made me happy so neener. Got the house all ready for scribble and while mel was cleaning up the kitchen I got the boy and then got us dinner. I had been good on eating and portions and I wanted 5 Guys for my bday dinner. Got us all food (benton got a grilled cheese) and we had a nice dinner. The boys had cake and I waited until the girls arrived for scribble to have some with some of the new open nature greek froyo...so good. Then I worked on my scroll commission and got it onto tracing paper and then traced it onto the paper. All good.
Tuesday was back at work and I got immersed in my project so much some one scared the crap out of me when they touched my shoulder...oof. But its starting to go together. I need to get that particular piece of paperwork ready for review for next week so I have to hustle but still be uber accurate. Tough score to settle there.
Tonight I'm heading up with the Hrafncrew to fight in the Novice tourney. (I'm not a novice but they do have a non-novice section, I realize I've been SCA fighting off and on for 13 years.) I got my shield finished up last night after a lot of hassle. Mel was kind enough to cut the new handle to fit in the hole in the shield...the problem is the hole in the boss was smaller and I needed to remove .25-.375" worth of material on either side of the handle to get the boss to fit on the shield. Needless to say I did not know what saw I should use and ended up using a file to file my way to perfection and I got the shield done at 10pm. Still needs to have the edging trimmed and the bolts holding the boss and handle trimmed flush to the nuts. Luckily my old armor repair kit still had everything I needed in it but it was still a late night but I'm ready to fight tonight and just need to get out of work on time and head home and do a quick change and pack.
But now to the ickiness of my paperwork slog. Lots of drawings and details that have to be documented. Good thing I'm good at that.
