New blog who dis

I'm not going to say that my life started to fall apart as I was trying to leave Pennsic in 2019, but it definitely has taken extraordinary amounts of turns since then.

  • I moved four consecutive summers from 2020-2023 and had two major job changes.
  • Since I haven't had space to sew, I've been weaving belts and doing virtual jobs:  Kingdom Exchequer Deputy for NMR and Zoom coordinator
  • I've been participating in events again, including some in EK! 
  • I was Water 2 at Pennsic XL and Water 1 at Pennsic L (and I'm keeping it for LI)
According to my downloads folder, I decided back in July of 2022 (right after my last post) to split my blog so that I could keep a more intricate record of my SCA-ness.  It has taken me those eighteen months to trust that I didn't completely mess up the process.  I'm still a bit on the fence, since I think half of the pictures aren't here and I'll have to reattach them.  But hey, here's a post!  And I will hopefully remember to go back and clean up the old posts I didn't delete and give format to the blog itself.

Projects I have done that should be reported:

But the most important kick in the pants has come from my best friend Fede di Fiore getting inducted into the Order of the Laurel on Saturday and encouraging me to stop slacking!  Some of these projects have been for fun, some have been Proofs of Concepts, and some I really should just write research papers about. 

So stay tuned, there's more to come.
