Mail Call

[hsifeng]

Two packets expected in the mail today; one from Jas Townsend, full of their lovely woolen socks (I really need to learn to knit!) and the other from our friend amatilda and her hubby (of  Legendary Costume Works) with our leather bandoleers/shot pouches...I have been forwarned that the leather bits are highly '*squeee* worthy' and that I may wish to don a

He already looks like a goddamn wood cut, woman. Quit your stitching! ;-)

How much did the parts for the shade structure cost?

I'll have my kilt for bedding, but may need something more. Do you have any extra appropriate blankets or suggestions on where to find some?

The PG&E guy showed up just after 11pm. The stove works, the dryer works, the water heater did work, but doesn't anymore, the furnace still doesn't work...

You will see me this evening.

Sadly, we are already hauling all the period bedding we have (three wool blankets). The Army Surplus on Belmont has nothing. I would recommend checking the web for other 'army surplus' locations for woolens. Other than that, I don't have much by way of recommendation....find a frau? *grin*

Glad to hear things are progressing at the house. I will be home around 6:15 and hubby will be in later. I am going to be sewing my ass off (I am surprised I have any left with all the 'sewing it off' I have been doing!), but you are welcome to come by and join in!

Do you want him finding someone else's frau, or a fraulien or mädchen to make into a frau...? :-)

[hsifeng]

Oh, there are plenty of older women out there without men too (and they would still be frau, not maidens or young women). *grin*

It doesn't sound like you're getting too old for this no sleep shit. It sounds like you thrive on it. ;-)

[hsifeng]

*chuckle* I thrive on project completion. However, it would do me good to figure out a way to not take on so many projects at the same time so that I could get the 'thrill of completion' *and* sleep!

Nice posting Cher! LOL. Your detail shots of your shot bag are blurry, can't see the pretties...
THRILLED that you like them! And we can't wait to see photos of you both in garb with your gear this weekend!

[hsifeng]

I totally *suck* at working the digital camera. *le sigh* Not like you! *grin*

I will try to make sure to get 'in the line of fire' of a couple of photographers in the near future. You will most certainly get copies!

BTW - I think we should do a 'make Brayton a new costume' weekend in Fresno in May. What do you think?

Here's another close up of the carving my love :)
