Yesterday turned out to both a good day and one of my worst days .
I slept too little on my camping cot, because apparently it is too painful for my arthritic body these days.
My lecture on 12th century fashion went well, and I had a good chat with friends. Then after lunch we started making feast, and it was a horrible experience: the head cook got so bad back pain that he couldn't communicate the recipes OR what we should do and in what order. He had also underestimated the work needed disastrously. I, who wasn't to do much physical work on site ended up working very hard, on my feet, for four hours, before I just had to step out. With my autism I also couldn't handle the brain stress. Good people stepped up, and we got good, but I will NEVER cook feast again . I managed to get a ride home with a friend, and when I got home I started shaking from pain and stress, and almost wasn't able brush my teeth even
On the good part I got to see my dear friend Alfhild become baroness of Gotvik, I took a new apprentice, and I had a very good time with friends after feast.
