Pennsic was very fun except for my children....

Paul got Sun Poisoning on both of his hands and a patch of his neck and needed a trip to the Chiurgians on Friday.

Aelfwynn got stung by a Yellow Jacket on Thursday and has a hand that looks just like the balloons in the cartoons. No, she is not in danger of anephylactic shock but she throws an incredibly impressive surface reaction whenever she is stung by any insect. Her drugs of choice have been 2 Benedryl and 2 Ibuprofen every four hours for the past 3 days.

Olwen was like a deer in the headlights when she was put on vigil. She had NO CLUE! We were so sneaky. (hee!)

Mistress Jeanne who is now Her Excellency, Baroness Jeanne, also had the deer in the headlights look when she was called into court and after much telling of the virtues she had (which we already knew) the K&Q of Artemesia placed her coronet on her head!

The A&S display was awesome as always and I am so proud of the artisans of Bright Hills. They fielded 1/2 of the displays that were from Atlantia! My Barony rocks!!

My classes went swimmingly and I was happy that Karen Larsdatter came to my Table Setting class. She had many nifty bits of information to contribute. Whew, I'm always so nervous when I go to teach. I not very confident in myself and knowing whether what I'd like to share is of interest to anyone but me. I was not pelted with cabbages nor was I laughed out of town and for that I was relieved. I'll keep improving my classes and offering them as long as they are accepted.

The weather was HOT and HUMID! but we all drank liquids like sailors and were fine. Even Paul took my warnings about a possible trip to the hospital for him seriously and kept up on his fluids religiously.

My ancient canvas cabin tent kept me warm and dry for the 23rd year in a row. I love that tent. Some of my best SCA memories have been from events that I used that tent as a house for.

We broke down camp in record time to try to help Master Chirhart and Baroness Jeanne (hee!) get most of the work done before the predicted serious storms tonight. I hope we beat the clock. I like those two people. They have shown me nothing but friendship and kindness. Okay so Master Chirhart has tried to kill us with his VERY bad jokes but there you are.

I'm fading fast and will go to bed now.
