	Exactly!  But like all of us, there is a budget to consider.  HA!

	I have already put winter kingdom in my daily planner.  Diffinately
going to that, I understand this one is more classes than tourney.  I LOVE
learning new things and different ways to the old that I am already familiar
with.

	I do not really feel overwhelmed as much as I feel very anxious.  I
am sewing a couple of extra suits of garb for Frederick and I.  Made a list
of what to take etc etc.  Reading more on etiquite?  I do not wish to insult
or stub someones toes.  

	Plus my son strongly wants me to participate in the newcomers bardic
that Robert is judging.  Frederick says I always told the best bed time
stories.  :)  He's 17, I bet he wants $$$$$$.  lol
