So yesterday was just bad. But it was also a Monday which almost always equals bad so I'm hoping that's all it was. I've almost finished repairing Ginsie's garb for this weekend. I still need to finish repairing mine. Yes, it will only take two seconds to repair mine (sew the straps back correctly) but I'm ignoring that right now. I did take the Venetian apart on one side to start repairing that. I also hemmed up Mom's dress and punched a bunch of holes in the back. I need to sew up the eyelets.

For Pennsic, it looks like I'll get a bunch of wooden pallets for the floor. I'm getting six 4' x 4' pallets. This should make a 8' x 12' area which will fit just beneath the canvas cover for my tent. (My pavilion is 10' x 11' technically but the canvas "lining" stretched last year and puddles on the ground. I can easily make the lining cover the edges and have it so rain is simply not an issue.) What does this mean? This means I won't need to wake up every single morning and make sure the floor walls are still up and re pair them as need be because the floor will be raised. Woohoo! Now just to go find some simple boards to put over the pallets so I won't fall through the cracks...or, more likely, my earrings won't.

Mooching

Yes, this is based off the post by [livejournal.com profile] attack_laurel.I know of someone who will happily mooch off of everyone around her. I went to an event with her just last month and I swear that girl got three times the amount of food I did...and she didn't pay a penny for it. People would just see her and ask her if she'd like some of their popcorn/cookies/ or whatever else they had. Me? I think I had one cookie and that was it. And I think that was because I was near her. :-)

No one seems to mind if she wanders a bit to close to their encampment/dayshade. Typically, someone will beckon her in and act like she is the best thing they've seen all day.

She has all her garb made by other people, for free. People happily share whatever food/drink they have with her. If she needs a bit of shade on a sunny afternoon? No problem. People will come up to her and ask if she'd like to rest a bit in their shade.

So who is the moocher than never brings anything more than herself to an event? in case you are curious and want gossip )
