Some more fairy photos from last weekend

When we took these the sun had come out, and after we had had lunch we went to a very beautiful, small nature reserve, enjoying blooming meadows, a water fall, the view over the lake, and sunny weather.

This was the first time I wore my new Regency spencer, and it definitely looks better when you have the right type of underwear. But still, if you take many photos some are bound to come out good.



( Some more... )

On Wednesday before Rickard went to work I also got some phots of me wearign the spencer the way it was intended to: over my Regency ballgown, that I made in December last year.

The curls are fake clip-on bangs from eBay - I love them.

Stupid arthritis

 These last days I don't even know the state of my exhaustion - because I am in too much pain to think anyway. I am not a fan of having to take tramadol in the morning, I try to limit my usage of opioids to one at night so that I actually can sleep.

But there isn't much one can do, and if I take one I can actually get somethign doen AND be able to take a long walk after work. I can almost always walk unless I have a flare in the joints in my legs, fmovign with a purpose helps to distract me from the pain. Before my exhaustion just thinking and focusing on intellectual work worked to distract me, but that ability has been worn out by too much pressure the last decades. But walking (or biking) is still fine. And it is going to be sunny, though not very warm (max 17 degrees C) today.

But now I hope to be able to focus on "my" 17th century probate inventories, I have foudn some really nice ones (as in content, the German handwritign is often horrible) recently with interesting clothing and textiles.
