2nite is ALL about the bow. A bit of blade and the smooth scrap of a sharp edge along a straight grain. It's the company that makes the work at times arduous. Listening to the Old Man tell stories would b ok but he stops 2 say, "If it was me, I'd be looking for a way to 2 do less work. Look @ u, ur old b4 ur time." Nothing like a poke n a prod @ the ole vanity. Odds r good there may b a chink in the armor there n it can b used as a tool for manipulation. *Sigh*.
I love the bow. Its curves and lines, the whip and spring of a grain well shaped. Working the wood from block to bow is soothing and energizing. I will look old regardless. Thanks Old Man.

In a small corner of Sanctuary are worlds and times that exist, out of sync or in, all being tiny glimpses of a greater tapestry. One such place, the land of the Fae, has a castle, of sorts, that is totally surrounded by a brambled wood. So we begin, in the Worlds of Sanctuary, with the Faelan Stories. And what better, when being introduced to the weird and wonderful, than starting with something slightly familiar. Here we have the sometimes Sleeping Beauty. Ps: It's a story so oldest posts 1st.

Niiiiccee... AWOL again. :D
SB with her newly made Alpaca fleece Tam n her trusty weapons down by the riverside. Hee hee... Think there's a tune in there somewhere... An Ogre home world adaptation, something about studying war some more. All u bleeding heart liberals can lay ur weapons down but where the Ogre came from that gets u crossin' over b4 time. Its a lesson children learn early. Weapons give u a fighting chance...

The Breakfast After the Supper B4
Chef Shrek's breakfast combo: Strawberries N psyllium bran cereal, runny egg fried and basted in an inch of bacon grease, bacon, bakery multi-grain bread with Ogre's strawberry preserves, n of course, tea with canned milk. Hey, its the Martimes after all, eh?!
N Shrek seems to have forgotten his snit...
YAAAAY!!! And.... YUM!!
Heh heh heh... No bowl washing necessary this morning. Didn't need a dog to lick it clean either! ;-)

Chef Shrek's Peas Porridge in the Pot Nine Days Old...
Breakfast:
So the Ogre decided to come out to play. He'd found some pea soup that had sat out for a few days. Had a bit of unsavoury tang to its aroma. He added more to it, cooked it up n said he wouldn't cook any more food, ever, if I didn't eat it. Hmmmm.... What 2 do?!
Sheesh! Ogre's got 'is little kid knickers on 2day. I DO NOT want to eat that soup but it's gonna be a rough road side-stepping this one...
Lunch Time:
Dang. My favorite Ogre has his grumpy pants on! Deep breath in, slow release.... Ahhhhhh.... Better? Ah, no.
Better do it again.
Supper Time:
K. Ogre is truly pissed. Sleeping Beauty's being sent to her room. No supper 4 u Missy! Huh. Good thing I keep a stash... Heh heh heh.
Store bought pumpkin pie, nice thick pepperrrrrroni and Sandra Dee's homemade molasses cookies. Yeessss!! Ooooo... N orange juice! Shrek is gonna b pissed. He'll wake up n cook again near midnight and I'm not gonna b hungry. *Sigh*. Setting myself up for more from Mr. Grumpy pants or what! Yah, well... Hungry is hungry. And not hungry is not hungry.
Oh! And big plump juicy grapes the Ogre bought for SB today. See? Not always Mr. Grump.

Time Warp
Beauty? She's tied pretty close to home, doesn't get out past the Hedge much. But me? As her Bowyer? I gots 2 get supplies n such, eh? N see the weird thing 'bout this castle lost in time is the further u gets away the more u get back to the future. I've jumped the barriers between worlds a time or 2. Sometimes it jars u, n other times u don't even know you've made the leap, n other times its crazy cuz u can feel time changing from one century to the next as u move further away from the Verge. It can be like riding a slow rift with no idea if the whip lash is going to come back @ ya. Kinda like u get in a truck n drive n u can feel the atmosphere change from stuffy to clear as old dust blows off, n ur almost to town b4 u realize there's a leak in the brake line n u just crested the big hill n there's a stop light at the bottom with a ton a traffic... Ho. Whoa!
Think next time I'll take a horse...
