Over dinner this evening I apologized to Her Majesty for not doing more than be a spectator at the Crown Tournament event today. She was, of course, gracious and said that I do plenty already. I was a little confused until I realized she meant by being Baroness. She asked how many hours I do things when I am not at an event and I said that I don't count that. This comment of mine was not well received. I thought a few minutes, came up with something I had done recently and felt mildly better. Shortly after that I pulled my phone out, thinking of taking a picture and there were some private messages, Barony business. I sat there reading and replying for a few minutes and then said, okay, maybe I do more stuff than I think I do. There followed some chuckles.
It was a nice day of sitting and chatting and stitching for me. I was near the fighting but only paid small amounts of attention to it until towards the end when there were only a few fighters left and then got to see our new Prince and Princess crowned.
Listening to birds this morning when I awoke and falling asleep with the sounds of frogs and crickets after a long day with friends and activities are my
happy things for today.
May the Fourth be with you.
