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 ...
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. ...
