So this year I haven’t been to many SCA events. A lot has to do with time and me being lazy. Don’t get me wrong I absolutely love the SCA but I think that I was experiencing the burnout that so many people go through. It probably also had to do with the fact that I had just gone through a divorce and my ex still plays and the oddness of being at an event together. We get along great but I guess I wanted to avoid the questions and “oh I didn’t know’s.”
The last event I went to was to RUM which is a teaching event. Not so much about fighting. I went because Vivianna was receiving her protégé belt. It was a very happy day!

I took Chris with me. This was not the best first event for him. It is can be very boring if you are not already into an art. So after the belting we skedaddled.
So I was finally able to talk Chris into giving the SCA one more try. Ben and Lindsey have decided that they would also like to go to Castle Wars. So this should be lots of fun. Andrea also let me know that she wants to go. This will be her 6th or 7th event so I am not worried about her at all. I have a sewing meeting with Ben and Lindsey tonight to figure out what we need to get together for them. The biggest thing is getting the leather for the belts. Hopefully Cory will have some left out of the bundle we bought awhile back.
So fast forward to today…
Ben and Lindsey came over last night to look at garb and to talk about what all we needed to get to make their garb. I think that I had them try on a little bit of everything. I ended up showing Ben my furry hat and he really liked it. I wake up this morning to emails with the hat that he made last night. I was highly impressed!

So this weekend will begin the sewing. I will post as we go along!
Till then,
