Renaissance Festival War Stories: September 18/19, 2022
Photo by Jas Weight Continued from week four... September 18/19, 2022 Five Dollars I have mentioned The Dregs in previous posts. They are a local, legendary renaissance band with nearly as many former members as Spinal Tap and just as many infamous songs. Saturday evening, exclusively for those who have secure camp ground clearance, they perform their show known as 'Dregs After Dark.' Because the festival is work for us and play for everyone else, this is their chance to do a show for those of us who don't get to see them during the run of the season. Last year, I missed it; this year, I didn't want to. Nestor and I head up after supper to catch the show. We were late and, the show had already started, and all the benches were already full. We stood back and enjoyed the show.

Have you ever fallen in love with the same person twice?
I had to decide if I wanted to post this without boring you. Figured out the best way to post my happiness is to talk about what I learned after 14 years of marriage. It feels as if we have turned back the clocks on our marriage and started all over again. The butterflies even came back to my stomach just like I use to. Let me explain how I got to this point after 14 years. It did not come without its trials and tribulations like any marriage, but much less than most marriages.

Learning To Cultivate The Appropriate Mental Attitude.
To get into this routine, though, you need to have the correct mental attitude. You can try to push things and keep your old perspective while adopting new habits, but in the end, neither of these strategies will be effective.

Ties of the World
Hold my hand and experience the love I have reserved for you all. A love ripe with a passion for bonds and rich moments. It has been two decades since I have been on this earth, yet our bloodline has been around for centuries. It has encircled the globe throughout history in a multitude of countries and continents. We are of regal descent and we should all act as such. None of us is superior to the others, no matter age or status. It has been a heavenly journey during my stay on the Virginia shores. I have relearned the single request that our late father had wished for: for us all to be in great standing with one another and to unify as one. Upon this throne I sleep on, our father once slept and pondered. His thirteen children were always heavy on his mind. The DNA of a tireless worker flows through us all. None of us are meant to waste away on the shores of regret and solitude. Lead not yourselves nor your offspring into the sands of turmoil and abandonment. Rather, lead them rightfully into the hall of our majesty.

The Waves of Father
A hazy night with one of my sisters leads us to the shores that neighbor Europe. In the gentle breeze of the Atlantic, I can barely stand straight, let alone walk without swaying like an unbalanced scale. The air smooches my cheeks as if they were my lover, and satiates my nostrils with the charming scent of serene oceanic salt. We stroll down the beach a little further and notice green, yellow, and red flashing lights in the distance. Some shine brighter than others as they permit us to stop, yield, and go at their discretion. The sound of minute waves crashing down on the beach is like the sublime music of old. A joyous and tipsy grin slides across my face as if the surface of the former was a waterslide at a park. The sand betwixt my toes is both grainy, like uncooked cream of wheat, and smooth, like cold all-purpose flour. What intricate positivity is this? Relative amusement fills our voices as we giggle drunkenly.

I’ve Never Been Dumped in a Relationship Before
The other day, I read about a breakup somewhere. I can’t remember if it was an article online, someone’s blog, or maybe even a Facebook post from someone about being dumped. I’ve seen many distraught people discussing how sad, despondent, and generally depressed they felt. My heart always goes out to those who go through such a difficult loss.

The Best Liquid Baby Detergents for Tough Stains
It's more difficult than you may imagine selecting a baby detergent that is both mild and robust enough for the mess that a baby makes. In order to determine which products have what it takes in a stain-fighting duel you won't believe, we bought the top ten options and put them to the test against baby food, formula, spit-up, and poo. When cleaning garments, getting rid of odors, handling stains, and maintaining the softness of baby's belongings, we tested each alternative.
