How do I even start this post off? Ugh. I mentioned in my last post that Chase's mom was improving, but on Tuesday she passed. It was a shock because she'd been so much better. Can the universe please just give us a break? Yesterday we made arrangements to fly up for her Celebration of Life in a few weeks. So just... processing that and everything has taken up the ...
seriously I'm not even sure why I'm making a post today, I guess habit? Because I have nothing new to post about today! This weekend was hard. I don't like going into personal life stuff online too much, so I'm struggling with how much I want to post here. Basically the weekend of Dragoncon 2 things happened; first, Chase's mother was taken to the ER with pneumonia, and second, we had ...
It's my favourite post of the year! The post where I get to recap Dragoncon and post all my fav pics. So Wednesday I went into work early so I could leave early (2), which ended up not being necessary... I'd pretty much gotten everything packed Tuesday night and all I really had left was stuff like my toothbrush, medicine, etc. So I ended up just taking a nap til Ash ...
AHHHH god I still have to work today. I'm off at 2 and we'll probably hit the road at like 5 or so, so we won't be into Atlanta until very late. I figured I'd post my last handful of progress photos. Finished necklace! Well, mostly, I was about to glue the necklace chain in place. Chase got the mother of pearl sheets cut into the shapes and attached, edges painted gold. ...
We are officially in risk category 5, but I have achieved my state of clear. Everything is pretty much done at this point. Now it's just struggling thru half this week at work until I can set my out of office and I'm on the road. Friday afternoon I got my hairs re-redded. And brows waxed. Slowly emerging from the August chrysalis state. Still pampering my face trying to get it ...
So first a Chase update. LIke I said in my last post, he ended up having to call an ambulance and go to the ER. My parents were thankfully able to sit with him until I got off work. They did another MRI and gave him a ton of pain meds and some muscle relaxers and by the time he got discharged that night felt like nearly normal. Very little ...
Well. Chase was feeling a lot better last week. Was able to go to my cousin's wedding reception Friday night (he just stayed in a wheelchair), Saturday he was able to walk around and do his own stuff and and even came upstairs once, and that afternoon drove my car to Hobby Lobby (he stayed in the car while I went in). He was careful not to overdo it and ...
Yes I'm posting on a Friday, the world has gone mad. Nah we're just in THREAT LEVEL DRAGONCON so I thought I'd do an extra update. First, Ash and I had a good time in Nashville. Today's post title thanks to this wonderful album cover we saw at Great Escape. We had time to run around a bit before the show, went to Lush, went to the Pickers store, ate ...
Did anybody else's elementary school music class consist of mostly playing xylophones? Everytime the teacher assigned us a xylophone to play, I was always given one of the tiny ones to play. I always really wanted to play one of the bigger ones with the little mallets. Nobody ever let me play the big ones with the mallets. I'd sneak a "bong" on one as I went by it on ...
I know I just kinda wrote out a to-do list in Monday's post but my brain is screaming in anxiety today and it helps to write lists. So I'm going ahead with my August state of the union. 1. Dr Crusher is DONE! Finished her up last week, last few details like sewing in magnets for the communicators, styling the wig. The only thing left to do is finish my tricorder, ...
