a trip and a lot of beading

Hi everybody! So yeah, last week was bad. My heart hurts and doubly so for my parents. And I really don't have a lot of sewing stuff to show you guys today. Because it's just been a week of non-stop beading. Which gets repetitious to keep taking pictures of. But I do have a few things to talk about. Thursday, it was hair appt day! Before After I feel like ...

Kes

I guess I need to post here that we lost Kes on Monday. We are all devastated.

the beadings will continue until dragoncon

So let's see, what have I done since last weekend? Oh that's right, I sat on the couch and beaded every single day. Ok so first. I was telling Kristie that I didn't like the bugle beads and was going to take them off that first test piece and redo them. She looked at my reference and was like, "uh I don't think that's beads, that looks like some kind ...

weekend stuff

Sooooo this weekend. To be honest I don't want to go into the shittiness of most of this weekend; but the one point relevant to my blog is that Kes is sick and we don't know how long we have with her. It is tough. So that is all I am going to say about that. I'm going to focus on the costume and art stuff today, and new home ...

in which i am homeless, and sad

First off OMG I had a migraine ALL last week, monday thru friday and friday I made myself sick taking way too much pain medicine (because I was out of migraine medicine). So that was fun. Especially while trying to get the house ready for moving this weekend!! But tuesday I was surprised with another package at work: Chase got me the Belle AND the Leia Nendoroids!! I'm not opening ...

a very moving weekend

Guess what! Chase and I are homeless. We closed on our house Friday. All done. The new owner takes possession a week from today, so we have until then to move out. It's so strange feeling. Like I said, I'm a little sad. It's been a great home. But before I get too far into all that, let's go back and start where I left off! I had Tuesday off ...

bienvenidos a miami

Ugh my photos are all out of order in my smugmug folder. So I'm just going to post these by category instead of linearly. Thursday! We went to see the Frayser Bauhaus. This super cool house was built in 1948. It got turned into a doctor's office for several years, and now it's being restored to its former glory! They had the house open for people to wander thru and take ...

And it IS DragonCon season which means I'm working on a lot of stuff and multiple posts in a week should be expected & allowed. Ok let's get the bad out of the way. Well I'm not going to call it bad. I'm going to call it colossally ...

Finally some Amidala Progress

I don't have a ton to post about today!! Mostly since I did a second post last week. We've had Kevin with us since Tuesday last week, so that's been fun. I don't know what this snapchat filter was supposed to be but it look like the Lunchlady's yearbook picture. Friday Chase got off work early so as soon as I got home, we headed on down to see an ...
