Going Where the Tide Takes Me
I'm just kinda letting life take me where it will at the moment - which is nowhere in particular of course.
Fayre
Went to the Fayre and a goodly time had by me and my daughter. Strange not to feel out of place in our dresses.
Surprised to still get comments on how lovely our dresses were/are considering the number of lovely dresses present on the day. And some that were authentic (ours don't even attempt to be authentic, we just like them!)
For Chris - we have an SCA in our city! Well, I'm not sure how the heirarchy goes, there is one for Australia overall and there are two sub-branches (county or barony I think they're called) in our city.
I toyed with the idea of joining for a day or two, but they're waaayyy to serious about this stuff for this little black duck.
Ball
Thanks to the Fayre there was no time for ball shopping (I'm privately pleased about that!). It's just over a month away now, so no need to panic, but will have to concentrate more on getting things organised (eyebrow pluck appointment, hair appointment, and find a bag)
Legal
Still nothing :( Time to write another letter and probably have to waste another precious day off dealing with it :(
Mum
Procedure went fine but she still has some nagging symptoms that she had before the procedure and thought they would have gone. Told to wait 10 days and see how it goes.
Computers
Driving me nuts, not playing nicely. Been exporting/importing data and it's been fraught with hiccoughs and having to do research on the web at home, at night cos I don't have enough time at work to do that. Got very close to completing the mission yesterday, but a further hiccough has developed.
Photoshop
Still haven't done anything exciting with it :(
Garden
Have been doing a little gardening - see my new garden journal.
Life
Life is just pulling me along at the moment, I have no desire to move in any one direction, so I just go where I get pulled.
I don't know that it's a good thing, and the effect is quite likely worsened by the fact that I have no goals or aims or desires - so it's not likely to change for a while.
No person on the sidelines looking to come in, and I'm not looking to the sidelines to find anyone either. There was one, but I ensured they didn't hold on to any false hopes.
I wonder when the day will come that I yearn to have a partner again; I'm sure that day will come, don't know what will/might trigger it.
I'm still reading your blogs, just been rather quiet lately.
Bye

Nice to hear from you again. I'll be back sometime today to check out your new garden journal.
Hello again,
You mentioned the SCA.
I've been a non-practising member of the SCA for ages and I've been non-practicing for the same reason that you didn't join - many are just a little too *out there* for my tastes.
Having said that, if you ask often enough you can find those that are interested in a 'casual learning model'. They are still interested in learning about the times and having fun with attending this or that "do"...
BUT these people DON'T smell like a radish/turnip/potato farm and WON'T embarrass you at special occasions - yes they are bloody rare, but it might be worth looking to find the less INTENSE members in your area.
