So there's a non-zero chance that once the disbursement from my mom and stepdad's probate case is made, I will be moving YET AGAIN -- this time to An Tir, specifically the Barony of Wealdsmere (Spokane). My sister, who I'm living with, wants to move up there with my niece and myself to be near my nephew, who lives near Coeur d'Alene Idaho, thus uniting what's left of my wee family.

I don't blame her for wanting to move -- it's brutally hot here, and getting hotter. (I'm skipping a tourney today because I don't think I can take the heat.) And well, it's Las Vegas, a town I have fought to avoid living in ever since I left in 1975.

So we'll see! I'll keep everyone posted!
Well, I made it back to Starkhafn! ^__^ Kinda did it in record time too, about 8 hours including stops for food and petrol. (My wee black Mini, Crow, loves to go fast fast fast XD) I plan on resting for a few days to adjust to the altitude here, then I’ll be ready to get on with my life! ^__^

Packing proceeds apace for my move back to Starkhafn (Vegas)! I have nearly everything packed for the drive down, including all my SCA gear (and my harp of course); the books I have will be going into storage in June, along with the bulk of my possessions, since I'll be living in my sister's house until I can find/afford a place of my own. On that front, I've evidently been pre-approved for a VA home loan, so it's just a matter of finding a suitable condo, of which I have a number of likely suspects. XD

Just a couple more days of this, then I'll be home again. ^__^

Homeward Bound

So it's official -- I'm moving home to the Barony of Starkhafn (Las Vegas), Kingdom of Caid, at the end of May. Which is coming up real fast, innit? I have a ton of stuff to do, including get the car ready for a road trip loaded full of stuff, clean my room, pack, purge things I no longer need/want, and do all that other moving prep stuff. Gonna be busy for the next few weeks...

...Except for this coming weekend, when I am flying out to the East for the House Three Skulls 40th Anniversary event out in An Dubhaigeann (Long Island)! I can't wait to see my old House brothers and sisters again -- it's been too long.

Once I get back, I'll get started on the move. But until then, it's trip prep! ^__^
Well.

Hello, it's me, Mouse. Changed the name of this journal (used to be Ommadan), changed my SCA name (Nadbroicc inigena Druisten, pronounced vaguely like NADbrook INyena DRISTden -- just call me Mouse), fixing to change my living situation and move back to the Barony of Starkhafn (Las Vegas, aka Home), Kingdom of Caid, later this year. Been dealing with lack of spoons/spell slots, loss of focus, loss of way, loss of my mother last year.

I want to get better.

Right now my focus is on two things: doing Accessibility work at various conventions (did I mention during this gap that I was the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging deputy for the Principality of the Mists?) and prepping for my move back to Vegas. But I want to get my groove back and resume my endeavours in harpery and scribery and heraldry sooner rather than later. Maybe before the move, we'll see.

Anyway. Onward.
