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 ...
It started out rainy, dark and cozy this morning, especially with the time change, and now the sun is stabbing me in the eyes. WTF. I had to pin a blanket over my window just to get some work done. Also yall can pry DST out my cold dead hands. People who want to switch to winter time year round are nuts. I love DST. So this past week a ...
Because I have anxiety brain and making lists of fun things is calming. Chip and Dale: So of course, Dale has been 95% done for ages now. I finally hemmed the top and put the zipper in last month, and finally finished the hat, too. So it's wearable as is, but I had wanted to do something other accessories for it, and also get new shoes, so... I bought a new ...
Just one more week before Daylight Savings Time. I can't wait. I hate the current state of light right now. I've been having to pin a blanket over my work office window in the mornings because of the light stabbing me in the face every morning. Also I like the summer "time" best. So last week was... rough. I was mentally not in a good headspace, like maybe the worst ...
Another week of fresh hell. I'm so tired of this timeline. But in good news my parents are getting their vaccine today and we have our second shot scheduled for this Saturday. Yay, I guess. I mean I'm glad to have it but the doom-loving news just keeps telling us that nothing will ever be back to normal even with a vaccine so I kinda just want to jump off ...
Well we are over here thawing out after the snow. When I posted Wednesday I talked about how much snow we'd gotten on Monday - well we got WAY MORE on wednesday! It ended up being a record - most snow we've had in something like 53 years?? Crazy! The backyard Wednesday night: The cove Thursday morning: So yeah Chase was off work again Thursday. He went in Friday, got stuck ...
Hey look... I'm posting on a Wednesday, only 2 days after I last posted... what is this, 2001?! Well a lot has happened since I posted on Monday. The "snowpcalypse" was no joke. This is the most snow I've seen here in... possibly decades? Remember that pic of our cove on Sunday that I had in the last post? This one: Here it is Monday at 11:30: Wow! And it kept snowing like ...
I got a pack of mini muffins at the grocery saturday to have for breakfast the rest of the week. This morning I wasn't thinking and brought the entire tray up to my work from home office (instead of bringing 1 or 2). They're tempting me to eat more than I should. Anyway I actually have some sewing stuff to post this week. First up, Chase's Chip jacket is mostly finished: I ...
