Jul. 21st, 2008 05:44 pmSo this weekend was made of Win and Crying....
It was awesome to be "Home" with Santa Maria. As always it feels good to be around people you love. It is hard some times as I am not as involved any more as I used to be, but there is no where else at fair I can call Home or people I can call Familia. It is terrific to see the guild grow and become a closer family every day.
I will say I was kinda sad that only two ladies made it to the "Dames Tea," But it is SLO fair and well I am lucky that many came. Most people are more Northern groups and don't do SLO and the ones who do are generally using this event to raise money by working and Ale stand or something. Ah well, it was great to see Katheryn Mills and Raven. We chatted about The Marriage Vow as well as Galbraith(sp) not being good at kidnapping. It was nice to see both ladies. And then of course Rellie was hawking beer with her Abbott in a Box(Hi Gregg)!
The best was being able to have LL Knighted! She has worked very hard to improve the guild and make all who are there educated and see why we have sprezitori. I think this is the most any of us have ever cried at a Knighting. But she is the awesome. If you don't know why, you should go to the Italian Embassy sometime and ask for Castellana Dortea. You will see.
The drive home was long but we made it safe. It was odd to be driving and having a snoring Padre in the car again. It just was odd. I have done it before, but now I had a sleeping Paladin as well. It was comforting to know he was there too. =D Love you Drew.
Went to bed late. Had horrible dreams where I woke up because in my dreams some one punched me out. Instant awake Sally Rose. Got moving, was still running a little late. Then the phone rings. It is my mom. She called to let me know my GrandAunt had died last night. *shock* Mind you, I know my Aunt Liz was not well. She was 90+ and in assisted living. I just wasn't expecting it. She will be buried in Albany, NY but she died in Alabama. I think my uncle is taking the trip down and bringing her to be buried by her husband. She has gone down to AL to be with her other family. She had no children. I am going to miss her. She was pretty amazing ahd well she helped raise my incredible Grandma so... there you go...
Okay well I am off to go have dinner with the couple I am working on coordinating their wedding in May and may be I will also get a back rub this evening. Tomorrow is looking at the house we have been told we can have whenever we want to move in.(Keith called, BOYS. He wants to know when we want it! I told him we would tell him tomorrow.)
Have a great evening. And there is this really cute couple who are super photogenic. I love their pictures. Makes me want to go out and get some too. =D
