One Year

The event this last weekend means that K and I have been Baron and Baroness for a full year.  I feel like we made some mistakes, but hopefully not big ones and we will continue to learn.  At some point today I realized that we gave out awards that usually have a little lamp to go with them and we didn't give out a lamp.  K knew this; we apparently are out of lamps.  I thought we had some, but we now need to find them or buy more.  There are things that I wanted to do during my first year that I didn't do.  I wanted to attend every craft night or fighter practice at least once a year.  I got to most of them, but not all.  I wanted to have a better Facebook presence, nope. I wanted to start regular a 'walk with the Baroness' type day, this did not happen.

All that said, I did invite folks to walk a couple times, just not a regular thing.  Other good things happened too.  The big thing that we did do, was to get new by-laws and get them passed.  That was actually something that I thought would take over a year.  We got to many more Kingdom events as well.  I know there are people new to the Barony and I know I can't take credit for them, but new people is a good thing. 

My happy for today is the way the sky looked as though there was fire in the horizon at dawn this morning.  I am determined to recover from the sleep loss over the weekend.
