12th Night

I think everything went well. I missed most of both courts, but managed to be there when I needed to be. For those who weren't there, the entire populace of Nordskogen was called into court. I think I did a good job as Royalty Liaison, and that is what everyone else said. The only problem was finding Royalty Room guards, but as the day went along, people volunteered.
The A&S didn't go well for me personally, or at least I think it didn't. I probably won't enter something for a while now. All I have to say is if you are going to give comments to someone about a project, good or bad, have the guts to leave your name on the judging form. And listen to what the presenter has to say.
Then there is the dress. That is now the gem of my collection. I was so happy that it fit right and it was comfortable. It fit and looked like an Italian dress should. The olive green voided velvet with the black silk was just perfect. I'm going to add pearls around the collars and sleeves as soon as I get them from TJ. That won't be till after Gulf Wars. It needs some minor repair work and fixing, and a hat. The dress flaunted a certain part of my anatomy. I fully expected that kind of attention which I didn 't even really acknowledge that much. It worked to get the young Royalty Room guards to carry stuff out to my truck during court!
And now for the TJ update...
He is home. He can drive now, and went back to work today. I had a little argument with him about merchanting last night. I told him how tired I was after Saturday, and it isn't like I'm at a merchant booth all day. I didn't mean that he wasn't working, but he gets to be in one place and does get down time. When you're running stuff at an event, you really don't get any. The most I had all day was during the A&S judging. I didn't get to sit down much at all. He can still be merchanting and sitting. I can't when I'm looking for volunteers or a specific person.
