The weekend started off crappy with me waking up with a headache on Friday morning that lasted all day. I left work a little early and went home and straight to bed.

On Saturday I grabbed my books, my daughter, and headed down to Fairmont to help the forming SCA group down there with their “Persona Day”. All in all I believe it went really well. There were six people there besides Ashley and I and all of them got a good start on their personas. I’m glad I got carried away bringing books. My plan was to just grab some of the name books but then I remembered that they asked for specifically Viking resources so I grabbed a bunch of my husbands Viking books and then I grabbed a bunch of my costuming books. I also had a binder full of persona type handouts I had accumulated through the years. The costume books really helped those that didn’t even know where to start.

It was nice to be able to help them out and I look forward to lending a hand to that group again.

Saturday night I cut fabric for one kosode and then watched a movie with Shawn.

Sunday I was supposed to go to the Solstice thing in Mankato and man a demo table but I received a call from the other lady who was going and we decided to cancel because of crappy weather. The nice thing about that was I was able to crawl back into bed and nap a little bit. After my nap I grabbed the kids and headed out to my sisters house. We hung out and chatted for a bit and then I headed home. My sister was showing me her game of the Sims 3 while I was there so I fired up my PC when I got home and told little virtual beings to wash dishes and go to work for awhile. Then Shawn got home from work and we watched another movie and went to sleep.

I have no children all week and hope to get my garb done before the weekend. We will see what happens.
