Feast Saturday: Short & Sweet

Ever heard the phrase, "bright eyed and bushy tailed" to describe someone who's just gotten up and is ready to start their day?

That would not be me this morning. I am worn out and really don't want to move. But, that's for good reasons. Yesterday was a very successful and extremely busy day.

My period clothing sold very well. And despite the unexpected heat (mid 80s!), I even sold a cloak! (The weather at an event can influence what sells, and so I did not think I'd sell any cloaks or toques. And I did not sell a single toque.)

My new tent configuration significantly cut down the walking I'd done in the past, and that was a real boon. While I did still need to help customers, I could sit far more than I usually do at events, and that was helpful.

With the heat, the busyness, and all, I only took a few photos. Frank and Lisa spent the day at the Fort, popping in and out to give me breaks or to sit down themselves. (Lisa's riding habit is wool and she was quite hot.)

I did get a photo with Audrey, the opera singer. I helped her with her clothes on Thursday and Friday's School Days, and in the process, we have become friends. (I did finally tell her that I, too, had sung opera. It was a nice connection.) 

Hot, tired, and happy and heading home.

I may be too tired to write tomorrow, so don't worry if you don't see a blog entry Monday morning. But I'll be back on Tuesday for sure.

Stay 'tooned!
