weird & wacky

When you have so few pics for today's post that you don't even have a good one for a header... So what a freaking weird weekend it was. I don't actually have a lot of photos to show today. Last week I focused on finishing up Crusher - I got the shoulder pads in, shortened the sleeves, got the magnets set in for the communicator, ended up taking up the ...

more than a feeling

I don't have a TON to show today because even though I worked nonstop every night last week, it was all finishings on the jacket/redoing the sleeves/getting all the closures put on and taken off because they're not right and put back on and oops it needs to be a half inch lower, etc. That being said my vinyl for my boot covers/gloves came in on Wednesday ...

MEH

So to conclude the saga of the artist who won't send out the stuff I bought from him... doing a chargeback with our bank today. Disappointing to say the least. So let's see, what have I done the past week? It took me a few days to recover from ABC so last week I didn't get a ton done. Started messing with my new Crait Leia wig. Concerned about how ...

walking the children in nature

what a week! I am a permanently exhausted pigeon. Since I last left off, Scott got in Tuesday! Chase took the rest of the week off so the two of them could go get in to trouble and just hang out. Meanwhile I still had to work and was up at 5:30 every morning so I could work extra to be off Friday. UGH. But look what came in the mail ...

might as well be walking on the sun

We are now beginning WEEK FOUR of having no AC at work. UGH. They were here last week on wednesday working on it, had a crane lifting parts in place. And yet its still not working today, what is happening?! The biggest issue with it is I think this is the reason my face is broken out like a hormonal 14 year old. I'm sweating and gross almost everyday, I've gotten ...

oh my

what a busy weekend. My whole body hurts and I don't know why! So to back up. Didn't get a whole lot of sewing stuff done last week, was still working on the house. But I did get my fabric for Hera on Monday.... Ummmm not an immediate love here. I set it out and decided to just think about it a bit while I started messing with a mockup. ...

white & nerdy

Chase has JURY DUTY today!! I'm so relieved somebody OTHER than me finally has jury duty. But at the same time hoping he gets done quick and doesn't have to be down there all week. Because going downtown for that everyday sucks. Especially today, it was raining all morning and he had to walk a couple of blocks from the parking lot. Anyway, we've actually been downtown a lot the ...

fre sh vac a do

So this weekend I realized just HOW MUCH there is left to do on our house to at least get it to a state of "finished"! OMG. 2 weeks from yesterday we'll be having a bridal shower at our house (YAY) and then a week and a half after that Chase's brother Scott is coming down to visit for a week (YAY)! Ok I initially typed out this giant block of ...

Dragoncon 2019 State of the Union

It's the rare second post in a week but I decided it was time to do a big ole' Dragoncon post so it's not taking up room in my next weekly post. 1. Dr Crusher! NEW and almost done! YAY! Seriously I got my lab coat material yesterday, it looked great, no need for dye, got it washed and dried and got it about halfway assembled last night. Should be able ...

i need a bat box

We did some yardwork yesterday morning and I got absolutely eaten alive by mosquitos. I've been wanting to get a Bat Box for YEARS and now that we're in this new house where we have to do a bit more yard upkeep, I gotta have it! I need some bats to move in and eat all these mosquitos. I was miserable itching all night, on top of having ANOTHER migraine. ...
