We will also have a full on militia and class battle demo around 12 noon or so. There will be things for the children to do as well. Scavenger hunts will also be amongst our entertainment and the merchants are in on that one so it ought to be a lot of fun
-Food is a possibility and if you’d like to help with that, it is also welcomed!!!
-There is a lot of merchants but in fact I have been personally put in charge of finding more.
Contact me by Phone (Kimmie Cherry) 575-802-3121 or email at CelticTears713@gmail.com
Even though it’s a small “no fee” booth space we still ask to know a little of your booth, and for you to stay the full time (not to breaking down before the event comes to an end.)
It is free booth space (BRING YOUR OWN SET UP) great advertising, and it’s a nice way of making this Renaissance Yard sale really improve to something bigger (These people are amazing and love the fact that we came last year even on the short term notice we received.)
-Musicians are welcome to come and put out a JAR, however they are asked to keep it simple and Renaissance as well as to be respectful of other musicians attending.
-If you would like to participate in the Festival as a part of Amtgard please contact Harkilar or Sttar at (575)-802-3121, for photo purposes and newspaper press information we need a list of who
MAY be coming by April 20th please.

BRING YOUR FLIPPING PARASOLS AND SUNSCREEN PEOPLE!!!!

We would really like a lot of participation. As there are so many who care about the communities that we all live in, come help us keep this community going.

Woah its been a while

Well it's definitely been quite a while I'm so sorry, how crappy of I. lol
Life has been good to update shit that way too much to update from my last post lol... hehehe.. thought you might like an updated photo of me however.
Enjoy and eventually it'll be once a week on here. For now,
Forever, Always, And a Day.

time to fly

So soon I start a new job at the local Thriftway Supermarket. I start in the deli on April 4th, 2011. I will be working with my old boss from the Hummingbird Tearoom. This should be interesting. I know I've changed quite a bit since the Tearoom closed. It closed only last year in September but its still been a while.
Hopefully things will work out and I can go to the family reunion. Chris and I missed the one three years ago and hope to go to this years....
"Nobody knows me, I've always wanted it that way... no one controls me... they never get me on the time of day.. no one has seen me cry, I only do that alone. My semlessness got disguised, what shall I run far from the one who's getting toooo close..."

Fire in the means of the sky

Just wishing and thinking, on a path of no ships or means of transportation. "Sigh" wait, I see a rainbow, and a lovely lady dressed in a silk blue flowy dress. She is holding a dagger with strength, and wings she has wings! She is here to carry me to my nightmare, but to hold my hand through it and help me across the bridge of debt. She will never know how much it means to me to have a friend like her. I hope she knows now.
Thank You for making me show who I am.

What's a Girl To DO?

So now I am involved in some legal case in which they have
not contacted me since the accident and now they want me to pay when I have and had insurance?
Confusing of the most part, but I guess all I can do is answer these damn statements and deny some of this crap that is repeating itself and hope for the best.
Wish me luck?
Kimmie in dire need of finding her star, (or a winning lottery ticket).

Star

In a time of false idols and stars, one may be presented with an opportunity...
Has anyone every met this Opportunity? Just curious.

I guess all we can do is worry ourselves to death and/or hope for the better.
I will have some new pictures up soon,
Our park is dwindling down to the winter numbers..
I take it this years winter reign may be very winteresk
and non amtgard efficient. But you never know

Well I start another chapter in the life of tomorrow, We moved into a new house my husband and I. We have two dogs, two cats, and two fish, a roommate, and his doggy too. All the animals get along, everything is good, I am very happy to be investing in buying a home. I believe it is a smart idea.
Amtgard is cool funky but cool. Not that anyone probably actually reads this but its all good. I love the game of Amtgard, sometimes people take it too seriously, recently that person has not been me, I feel like I am slacking or ought to be doing something almost immediately after I get home from work.
You think I could multi-task all this time after I have worked at a Restaurant most of my career.
Things are good just I underestimate stress at it's finest.

Well again life calls, maybe after laying some of this on the ground and setting it on fire, my life will heal it's wounds and carry on with strength.

The Etiquette of Restaurants

Ok all is well that ends well and everyone is meant to have a good time and things always even out.
I just want to say something
If you come to a restaurant, you should at least tip the waitress,
After all, if you have the money to go out and, eat
you should be able to leave a tip because that is what
some of us live off of!

Yule Tidings to All and To All A Big Tip

Never in my years as a waitress did I think of something like this spawning a reaction like what I received.
On Tuesday the 29th of December of this year, I was waiting tables at The Hummingbird Tearoom, I have worked there for awhile now and had some pretty big days and seen a lot of people go and come and come and go through out the employees and the costumers.
Well this family comes in every year, they are from either Texas or some near by city here in NM. A family of four, older sibling as a sister and younger being male. The older of the two kids was messing around out front of the restaurant throwing snowballs at the family. I thought it would be cool if i said something stupid so i did. I said "what they left you out here?" She laughed and continued to go and sit with the rest of her family. Well after I go their drinks gave them a few minutes I came to take their order and as I left I said "if you really want to have a snowball fight, come out back we can play around in the snow while the cooks are working on the food. They were skeptical at first but they eventually got their jackets on, dad the son and the daughter, mom took pictures with her cell phone and the camera. For about 10 minutes we messed around in the snow and finally gave up on it thinking that lunch was on it's way. It was awesome the daughter and I pounded snowballs into the dad's face at least two or three times...
Their meal went great, maybe one drink refill it was a waitress's best table ever The food was awesome (As usual from our kitchen). My co-worker JJ said that they would have never had that much fun any where else. My boss and her husband agreed. Well their ticket came to $37.06 and they had left the building, the dad handing me the black book saying the rest is yours. He left a hundred dollar bill. I gave ten to the kitchen. The rest went to my groceries, my debts with the phone bill, gas money to go up to the mountain, and the biggest smile on my face. My day could not go any better, except we could of used more business. Earlier that day I was to be reminded that they came in for breakfast (which we don't serve anymore) and they stayed anyway just to have our famous Coyote Cocoa and some coffee. They left ten dollars that morning for JJ.
I hope that they know how awesome it was for any of us to know them, we hope to see them next year and years to come. We also would like everyone to know how badass that was, for someone to know and recognize friendship through out the village of Ruidoso, and that the economy may be down but there is still kindness after Christmas, even for those like us who don't celebrate it!
Awesomeness, and love

Unwanted

I did not know what to title this blog. I just feel like writing.
I haven't a clue what to expect from my job recently, it has become bullshit around bullshit and those who do bullshit manage to get me into trouble for some unknown apparent reason, and then my boss actually believes them, over me. Not even into figuring out what is happening, just looking for a new job and hoping it may involve moving to another state, any suggestions how to help calm the recent problems which occur to be drama let me know. So far the drama is surrounding me and I cannot flee from this horrid deceased moment of bullshit.

Mis unDarStood and MiSpEllEd

Ever feel mis treated when u know u could do it right and better the first time?
Well where i work i know icould do better. I came in early and cleaned and bleached but for some reason when i work alone i feel like i could everything reqal fast.
Well maybe i should explain this crap. Every other day we decided that one ofus would wait tables and the other would be there to help the other one out. Well for the past 2 days yesterday and today it has been me waiting tables. Will yesterday did nothing. His job in the morning is to make teas butters lemons and such for up front. My job is to do all the baking.
We alternate weeks of baking also . this week was mine. His is next week, well when he got here yesterday morning I decided after i was done baking i would clean up things like the sugars the pepper shakers and such like that. He did nothing he spent 5 hours from 915 am til 2 pm just juggling around smoking cigarettes and playing onthe computer. He didn't clean off the patios or anything. It was a really warm day so every table that went outside made me cringe because he would seat them without cleaning off the tables.
Well now today it isjust me but everytime i went to sit down this morning I would have to do something that will was supossed to do yesterday and still when he is not here i would have to clean up after him. IT's tiring, i would not complain to my boss but i feel like leaving this place and going somewhere to start new/. Somewhere not here in Ruidoso. Somewhere where I could be appreciated for what I do not what Will didn't do.
Sincerley in love with a guy who probably hates her

Party on the Mountain 09

Well this day was Party on the Mountain 09' It was cool. Had to stay up there all day and handout fliers and cookies and banana nut muffins. Well it started out ok and by the second tray of goodies and half way through the time we were to be there. I lost all interest especially since my help did also. Well then my husband and my doggies showed up and things went great
my dad in law bought me a season pass for week day.
Very Happy Snowboarder right now. Wish I could go and skate.

More of Me.

Well I left you guys kind of blank, guess if you are reading this you are one of my many friends, or at least i hope you are a friend? Things have been great recently, except a few things that just put me down in the dirt. Small details that may be minor to those around me, but hurt me more than death. I could never explain them all. I have a lot of people who expect things from me, but none of them know each other, or are fighting with each other. Well in amtgard things are ok. I am told not to bitch or moan or complain, but is that not what a blog is for?
I just think this is my way of ignoring the world and making sense out of things that no longer do. Wish I was still in school. Or that I did start a new life within California. So not only do I play amtgard, not only do I bake, cook, serve, and prepare food at The Hummingbird Tearoom, but I am a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant, and a good friend who sews, bakes and makes jewelry on her own time. I used to be a really good artist, I am not just saying that because I thought my art was good, but because I was told by academies that it was. I used to write poetry, since 2007 I have had some serious writer's block. I guess it is because I left high school. I had so much anger for one guy. He constantly tried to kill me, with knives, cars, lunch trays, he even brought a gun to school. The principal just dismissed almost everything he did. The guy even called the cops on my dad who supposedly was driving too close to him. My dad was in front of him and the guy almost ran us off the road on my way to school, he even bumped into our car. The cops gave my dad a warning, although the evidence was on our car. I seriously hated the guy and before that had never used the word hate. He set me on fire once, my friend (not at the time) jumped over me at a school assembly and tackled me. To put me out. We caused some "big scene" and the teachers we all "You ruined the assembly what is wrong with you two?" The guy who saved my life and tackled me, continued to attempt to beat the shit out of the guy who tried to kill me. He was taken off school grounds and to the cop shop. I myself got my ass kicked after school by the asshole and all of his 13 friends. I never got revenge on him, most of my poetry surrounded the hatred I had. Well, I met someone one day. Her name was Valerie, I will never forget what she taught and said to me. I will never remain the same since she left, but I hope I continued what she wanted me to in my studies. I will continue someday more about these horror stories of how a high school manage to let a mass discriminating asshole by without a warning for threatening peoples lives with dangerous tools of destruction.
Good bye For Now, Kimmie aka StTaR

Amtgard

So I play Amtgard, it's this bad ass role playing game from the seventies, and you know why its so bad ass? Because it is in Real Life, Full Action, and it's Live Action, not an online crapped out cracked out game that gets overplayed.
I love it. We The Savage Highlands play every Sunday (12 - 6 pm) and Wednesday (4 - 7pm) at Wingfield Park here in Ruidoso, NM.
Our kingdom is Dragonspine. They think they conquered us but they only pissed us off so we accepted them. Too much fighting in one day, but you can never fight tooo muchhh.
I am Squire to Sir Boots, and Sheriff of the Shire, I have also been Chancellor.
I will post more very soon.
Sincerely,
Lady Squire StTaR Reddawn Smokestuff

Welcome

Well I guess I should start with my true visions of today. It is beautiful outside here in Ruidoso, NM. and although it is windy everyone seems to be enjoying the day. I am off of work today and checking my emails I came across one of my best friend whom has a blog online, so I decided to start one too. I hope you enjoy it. Have a great day and do not let the wind startle you back inside, have no fear for the Spring has come and it will be a very marvelous day and hopefully one of the best nights for us New Mexicans, (laugh out loud)
Blessed Moons
