remember how I called a post a couple of weeks ago "lost weekend"? Well I take that back. This was it. This was the lost weekend. Ugh! I was so excited to have a 3 day weekend and get a lot of costume work done. I ended up being so stuck that by Sunday I didn't do ANYTHING. We ending up binging the last 3 episodes of The Queen's Gambit (which I ...
So I have been getting. stuff. done. So I had 4 costumes in mind for dcon this year. Let's just go through the list. 1. Padme (and Bail) No progress here since last week on my end - still waiting on my fabric swatch for the pleated sections, and switched gears and ended up not experimenting with the applique stuff. I was going to start on the Bail pants, but did other ...
What a strange few days it's been. I've still been having an off and on again migraine the past week - it's getting old. I'm hoping I'm over it as of today - woke up feeling ok, but there's also storms/pressure change coming through today, so who knows. First up, Luna is... Luna, I guess. Chase brought her home from her surgery Wednesday afternoon. Look at that poor thing. ...
Well hi here we are again with the increasingly regular mid-week update. So Monday the mobile vet never called us, which was disappointing. And by Monday night Luna hadn't peed in her litter box at all during the day so we knew there was some kind of blockage going on and we couldn't wait on this mobile vet, so Tuesday morning we got an appointment with a local vet. (She ...
So hey remember how last week my grandma broke her back, I had to spend a very awful night with her in the hospital, and then my laptop died? Well we are apparently in a "season" because in the week after all that, I got sick, Luna got sick, and the AC in my sewing room went out. Today I will spread out the whining with photos of random stuff ...
Yall it has been a CRAZY week. I'm still not fully recovered from Friday. What was Friday, you ask? Well let's start at the beginning. I'll do some bolded titles so you can skip past the long bits if you don't want to read them. Enjoy some weird pics of Luna after I threw some money at her while I tell my picture-less story. A Broken Back and a Nasty ...
Back to real life after a holiday weekend. I had big plans to get a LOT of sewing done this weekend but alas. Friday night we ran errands, Saturday we ran more errands, did housework and headed over to Nana and Kristie's to eat FAJItAS and watch the Friends reunion, which was fun (and I also kidnapped Kevin. I'll tell that story in a minute). Sunday we had NO plans ...
I realllly was wanting to put together my dragoncon line-up for instagram the other day but I felt like it might jinx it. So instead here I am writing an extra blog post for the week because I'm having an irritating day and needed a nice distraction. Even though I kinda already went over this in a post a couple of weeks ago. It's my blog I do what I ...
Ugh it's Monday again. At least next week is only a 4 day work week with Memorial Day. Something to look forward to. Speaking of Memorial Day, I mentioned last week we were going to do a white backdrop shoot that weekend, because I really need Arwen and Eliza pics. But we decided to push it off to July 4 weekend, so we can focus on some house work before we have ...
First up, I finally got the portfolio updated with the disney costumes. The hold-up was my wacom tablet wasn't talking to photoshop 2020 and thats's where I do my drawings of the the little dressform images for the menu. The tablet WAS working fine in Photoshop CS2 but that doesn't have the smoothing option I use when drawing. I updated photoshop CS 2020 and no luck. Finally found a forum where people ...
