Building a shelf
So this past weekend after Christmas, Chase and I finally got the ikea shelf put together – we bought when we were in Atlanta for Dragoncon and the four massive boxes have been sitting in our hallway ever since, driving me crazy. It was a butt to put together. Throughout the week we’ve been working on it in the evenings.…

Christmas pics!
Yay Christmas! Thursday was Christmas Eve day in Jackson. Lunch with present openings! Got Disney gift cards, cute shirts and jacket, a calendar, etc. One of my fav things was this lightsaber (picture over the cool Marvel shirt I got) Ok so it’s not really a lightsaber, it’s a flashlight with an emergency window-breaking hammer on the end for your…

TFA Pics!
Finally got my TFA pics uploaded – most of these are just from my iphone. These are from both Thurs night and a 2nd showing we trooped Saturday morning. Thursday night – the girls!

2015 Year in Review!!
Maybe the morning after Star Wars isn’t the best time to do this. I went to bed hours after I normally do and still had to get up at 6:30 for work today so I am beyond fuzzy. BUT I realized I hadn’t done this yet and got all excited to type up the post, so here we go, fuzzy…

This week
Work is pointless this week. I just want it to be Star Wars, and then I just want it to be Christmas. I feel like I didn’t even get a Christmas last year, what with Indy being sick and all. It’s CHRISTMAS! And STAR WARS! And I want work to just be quiet so I can STAR WARS but noooooo…

Weekend Stuff
Friday night was the Grizz Star Wars Night! Chase hasn’t sent me his photos yet. Here’s a few off my phone. My new buns! They worked pretty well! The hair is still pretty slippery, being brand new, but a ton of hairspray (seriously eyes were watering, I had to step out of the bathroom for a few minutes) kept them…

LOL
Who the heck posted my stupid Sims 4 Pitstain Family story on facebook??? I’m cracking up. Conclusion to their story was I got bored once they got in the big house and stopped playing again. The End. LOL

Last few pics + Leia Hair
First up, the last few from the photoshoot – Magik, Johanna and Romana I. Romana was towards the end because dumbing down the white backdrop to total white was difficult around those feathers. Over the years some dings and scratches and paint peels have occurred on my Magik armor… and I really like it, I wish I had more of…

MORE!
Queen Aelsa… (not Elsa) Donna Noble, Fires of Pompeii. This needed a photoshoot since I redid the trim and fixed a few problems earlier this year – then I took no photos of it at Dragon Con. Queen Hippolyta, long overdue for a white backdrop shoot Hippolyta could use a big overhaul. Repainting, fixing some broken parts with more than…

#MouseEarsforaYear
So I’ve already been doing some Disney plannings for our trips next year. Mostly just looking at dates, and making some dining reservations! We are doing a short solo trip early next year; for that trip I’ve booked… 1. Be Our Guest – breakfast! We’ve eaten here for lunch and dinner, but breakfast started right before or right after our…

A couple more
I got Rogue as Ms Marvel and Leia comic book suit uploaded last night: The Rogue as Ms Marvel shots aren’t great, we shot those really fast because I didn’t want the glue for the mask to set and mess up my make-up. But at least I got them. Really happy with the Leia shots though! Tonight I’m hoping to…

Thanksgiving and Photoshoot!
So Tuesday last week I had a sore throat, Wednesday I had no voice. Thursday day I felt OK just tired and I had started coughing. Now it’s turned into a little cold and I’ve been hacking up a lung for the past couple of days. But beyond that, Thanksgiving was nice. We had the family lunch and then went…

MCFC!
We went up and checked out MCFC Saturday! We had a leisurely morning and did a quick white backdrop shoot with Merida while my hair was fresh out of the curlers. It ended up being a yucky, cold and rainy day. I added my black cape to my costume and had to layer up a bit underneath the dress. And…

Battlefront 3 Midnight Release
So last night we trooped the midnight release of Battlefront 3 at Best Buy! Chase had play practice so I thought I was on my own… until Kevin ended up staying with us last night. Yay! I was going to put him in Luke, but he arrived at my house with a big fuzzy beard. So I pulled the jedi…

Weekend stuff!
I got Merida mostly finished! I got the eyelets set into the neck with Chase’s help though I cut one opening too big and after a freak out spiral I ended up having to go back and wrap each eyelet in embroidery floss to fix it, but in the end it looks good and there’s no visible metal eyelets, so…

More Merida – I made a belt!
So last night I had to wait until Chase got home and we were done with dinner so he could help me get the box of leather scraps – they were on the top shelf with a bunch of stuff in front of it. But once he did I was so happy to find not one but two scraps of…

More Merida Progress
This is becoming much more involved than I had intended it to be… but only because I’m so pleased with it. So the other day I realized I had a great blue/green scarf that would look really nice as part of the sash. I hate to sacrifice it to the costume gods (I bought it on our 2012 Disney trip……

Merida progress
I worked on getting Merida mostly finished this weekend. Here she was on Friday: I had to get the other sleeve made and finished – I had all the pieces cut, so I figured it would be fairly easy, but it wasn’t. I had a hard time getting them to look the same and be even – I need to…

The Pitstains
So, I’m trying to play Sims 4 again. I’ve had it for a while, and I just have not been able to get into it at all. I play for like, 10 minutes and then turn it off. (I feel like I ought to just uninstall it and put Sims 3 back on my computer.) But I really felt like…
