Wonder where I've been? The shirt is finished and the the kirtle as well. Um... Practically finished. I can wear it and that's good enough for now. Right now the most important thing is to concentrate on the jacket, I only have 6 evenings and 2 days to make it.

The plan was to make shoes and a hat too, but that most likely won't happen. There's no time.

Well, back to sewing. Ta ta!

The event was fun and relaxed. I entered the book to the A&S competition and did not win. Which is perfectly fine as the winning entry completely deserved the points it got.

The Vicerine graciously lent one of her dresses to me as mine is still not finished. There is progress and news about the project. Go, check it out.

I did find the book. I even wrote the documentation. Now I need to finish packing and then we're off.

I fixed the image links in the archives and hopefully some of the permalinks as well. If anything is broken, please let me know.

The 'Ursus and Mao' photo album is updated, as is the Stockholm one. Enjoy!

This Monday was a tough one. Working on a customer's computer for seven hours straight without any results. Outlook didn't budge one bit. When I'd gotten home after a 13-hour workday I declared to everyone that computers should be all blown up and buried.

Thanks. I feel better today.

Monday was supposed to be a gym day, but I went yesterday instead. I went today as well, although I've come to doubt the wisdom of that decision. I'm still wobbly and a little shaky. Might be because I did some arm exercises as well. Of course the weight hasn't changed any, but it's too early to tell.

We are going to Champions of Lough Devnaree this weekend and I need to find something to enter to the A&S competition. If I can find this Carolingian style book, I'll enter that.

Thanks to the blog entry I wrote about it (June 12, 2004) the documentation is going to be easy.
