Bruises, Randomness, Art

Things have been busy. My great-great aunt Louise died earlier this week. She was 95. Her husband, my great-great uncle died in 1964 so I never knew him. The graveside service was interesting. It was pouring rain and we were huddled under a leaking tent, but the minister who spoke was straight out of a movie, an old-fashioned country minister, with a great voice and calling us "ya'll." So I have a ...

I found the tops so I mostly finished off the closet, still got a bit to do - haven't seen some of my costumes yet, but mostly older and small costumes like Lum that I'm not worried about - probably ...

It's Chase's costumes that take up multiple large bins, Kevin's multiple costumes, ...

moo cards!

My mini moo cards came yesterday! They have them in a neat new box. I felt kinda sad having to just tape them to boxes, but I got about 20 extra to hand out at cons - not that I ever handed any of my original 100 out - but hopefully I'll remember them at dcon this year. I put as many of them on as I could last night, and was ...

Planning on cleaning and working on the house that afternoon, maybe drawing a bit. Last night I worked on my office and got it about 80% clean, I"ll finish it up tonight.

More Closet work, and Boushh art

So yesterday when I got home I cleared out the closet in the prop room and started moving my boxes in. Right now I've just got index cards taped to the outside until I get the rest of my moo cards in (hopefully they'll be here tomorrow.) I need to unpack about 2 more big bins, and everything is pretty much done. I'm excited with how it's turned out. (Now I ...
