Friday Night and I’m in a Funk

Friday!

It’s Friday and I’m done with tax season. My accountant has the goods, I have copies of everything, and now I wait on a refund (no, I don’t do the refund anticipation loans). I should be over the moon that all that needed to be done has been done, but the abrupt completion of one task and the pending three have me out of sorts.

I could post another guest author for you, or a cocktail recipe, or maybe even one of my favorite cupcake recipes, but I’m going to share my crazy instead. When I get in a rut, I find that movement is the best thing that works. The dogs have been walked and fed treats, so there are a few other ways I can get back to my happy endorphin crazed existence. Any guesses?

If you have a dirty mind, that works too, but tonight while my bows soak up a beeswax and oil conditioning treatment to keep them supple, I am charging my sabers and preparing for glorious battle. The bow shooting will wait until my bows are ready, it’s too cold to make mistakes with natural wood (osage orange and coffee wood).

I have amassed quite the collection of lightsabers from several different small businesses. I try and keep everyone in business 😉 but I do have my favorites.

I have more shopping to do! LOL

I have a few doubles and a half a dozen different single sabers, so the imps and I can practice sword(saber) fighting techniques. Do you know what position number three is? I was fortunate to enroll my children in a school that trained for the Olympics, so I learned techniques including footwork by watching them and helping them practice. To that point, I’ll bet there are a lot of moms and dads out there that could have a black belt in Karate or other martial arts because they had to learn everything to make sure the children were practicing their kata correctly.

My doubles come apart, so you have options.

The hum of electronic sabers is calling, so off I go. I hope you have something fun planned for the weekend. I hope to go back and visit with some NJ vampires soon and regale you with stories of their exploits.

Let me know what fun things you have planned! Have fun!
