CJ and Daddy let me sleep in a little bit. Chris took the dog out before we got ready to go out to breakfast. I found a leather padded weight belt for my heavy fighting armor in my size for the price I was looking to spend (on sale for $20). I wore one of my ‘bethan corsets for chest protection for heavy fighting today. I got some great tips on fighting from a couple of knights, some squires and fought with another lady fighter. She understood the need to take out husband aggression… it was wonderful. I learned so much today. CJ was a good boy when I came home and my in-laws came over for a while (and Chris’ friends were over too) my in-laws kept an eye on CJ for us while they were here and shortly after he went to sleep. I got to talk about George Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire series with Kendra (Chris’ buddy’s wife) and got her thinking about a few things she hadn’t considered. Watched fun superbowl commercials. Watched the last 2 game minutes which were pretty interesting (I’m not a football fan, but I’ll watch the end if it’s interesting, not like Lions games)(Congratulations Giants). Got to work on early period garb for Val day.
Now if the rest of the week would feel this good, I might be able to break out of this stupid depression $#!+.
Bella went to the vet yesterday, she had digestive problems and the beginning of an ear infection. Nothing too serious. She got meds and now she’s feeling a lot better.
You can tell she still misses her sister, but she’s not constantly moping anymore, which I think has a lot to do with her digestive problems. I can’t blame her. We should have named them Ying and Yang they were so different and yet so alike.
Anyway, time to give her her meds again, they are for 4, 5, and 10 days. Then I’m going to see if I can work on the garb a little more before I sneak off to bed. Heaven knows when I’ll be able to work on it during the week.

Yesterday Mom and Dad got a new dog. Mom knew right away, that big hole in her heart needed to be filled before it swallowed her up. They got another small white poodle. Her name is Gidget. She’s supposed to get to be 6 pounds which is 2x the size of Bella. Right now at 10 weeks or so, she’s just a tad smaller than Bella. They still miss Minit, but I’m glad Gidget is able to help them through this.
Bella on the other hand isn’t very impressed, except that her Nana is totally backing her up that she is higher in the pack. *sigh* Pictures to come. I still miss Minit.
I went to fighter practice today. It was very cool. I think I got a bruise.
I’m very excited. I can’t wait until next week. Maybe I can train up a little so I can build my endurance. I also found out my sword is heavy. Things I need to work on: Lighter sword, Body/back armor, back of leg armor, shield.
