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 ...
Ok so Disney is over and normally my brain would automatically switch into dragoncon mode but this year, it's not. 2020 totally effed up my natural brain rhythms. I am trying to get myself back into a pre-dragoncon mindset, but neither my body nor my brain is ready for it. I'm still physically tired from disney. I'm finally over my heat rash and my face seems to be slowly clearing up (...
Ok this isn't really trip report but I uploaded Chase's pics and the pics off the camera last night so here's some selections from those. Black Widow Grand Flo selfie View from narcoossee's. Chase takes much better iphone pics than I do. See? Like here's his photo of his meal at Narcoossee's. mine looks amateur in comparison LOL View from our balcony - the other direction Dale Diving Bell His ...
Well HI (said like the viral cat video) We are obviously back from Disney and I'm still recovering. I had WANTED to post about the trip on Monday (before I forgot everything...) but I was lazy over the weekend and didn't download our pics. I got my iphone pics downloaded Monday and then had to struggle through individually downloading photopass pics from disney's site yesterday. Why don't they have a "...
Yeah I know I just posted yesterday but if I don't post this stuff before the trip, it's NEVER going to get posted. I went through that bag of stuff from my parents' attic! All of these clothes were originally in an old white garbage bag that totally shredded into nothing when I tried to pick it up. so I had to transfer it all to a new bag to ...
Mondays aren't so bad when you have an impending Disney trip. I don't have any new sewing updates on anything even though I said I was going to try to start on Padme -- and even though I was off Friday. Instead I became a whole-ass new person over the weekend. I took off Friday for my lash appointment: the no-makeup before The no-makeup after I looooooooooove how they turned ...
I have just 8 more days of work before Disney. In those 8 days I am scrambling to have everything ready for work for me to be ABLE to go out of town without being stressed about it. I blocked off some time one morning this week to focus only on making sure all of the info for my coworkers is correct and make sure they have all the files they need. ...
Good grief this weekend was busy. Busiest we've been since this whole pandemic craziness started. I bought this bunny years ago at goodwill because I felt sad for him. He's missing an arm and his hat is messed up. I was gonna fix him this year but didn't. I've left him out to fix one night this week so he'll be ready for next year. Saturday we got up early ...
Under a month til our disney trip!! AHHHHH Only disappointing thing is that I didn't realize I needed to book Savi's Workshop for making a lightsaber. I blame that on the fact that last year, once it became apparent our May 2020 trip wasn't going to happen, I totally tuned out of everything disney parks-related because I just didn't want to be reminded. And that's still kinda on-going, just in like ...
Today is Chase's bday yay!! Well I don't really have much of interest to post this week. I'm sure I'll talk a lot anyway. I did do a bit of sewing last week - mostly, I worked on the little corset-bra thingie. Which I have no photos of it, because it's not really for public consumption. I finished it up on Saturday and was really pleased with it. It was ...
