Two and a half hours of shopping and I'm wiped. Shaking, sweating, leaden legs... wiped. Guess you can't just jump out of bed after two weeks and hit the floor running, eh? Damn. I suppose this means I'm not going to be helping any friends paint or move furniture in the near future. I am catching up on laundry, though. Started it last night. Two weeks of laundry makes a big pile. Only two people in the house - I hadn't expected that!
I spent over a hundred dollars at Barnes and Noble. One thing prolonged bedrest will do for you is give you a chance to find all the holes in your book collection. And then I had to go and check on "Medieval Clothes and Textiles" by Robin Netherton and I'll be darned if there isn't a new one coming out in April. So "I" is in the mail to me and "II" is paid for and awaiting printing. Woo hoo! That was worth the shaking.
hehehehe... and I stopped at a kiosk on the way out and got a new hat for myself, then one as a gift for my Baron. A nice Atlantian blue baseball cap with "SCA Maintenance" embroidered on it. Hey, it's regalia. I read it myself. "Order of the Pelican: a cap of maintenance". (I had one long ago but passed it on to Nia... that one made Fast Eddie stop dead in the middle of the street before Pennsic and shake his finger at me, "That is _wrong_, Rosine, just wrong." I should get him one too. heh. What color are the ones for East Realm Pels?)
