HI! I'm home, and officially dead from dragoncon. So let's backtrack to Thursday morning! I got up at 5:30AM and Ash was there to pick me up before the sun was even fully up. We drove thru Silent Hill. The drive was pretty uneventful. We got into Atlanta around 2. Getting the car unloaded and into the room was painless! Somehow! Well, except for my GPS trying to take us to ...
It was a busy weekend. As is the the weekend before DragonCon EVERY year. SEE: 8/25/2002 8/23/2003 8/29/2004 8/28/2005 8/27/2006 8/26/2007 8/24/2008 8/31/2009 8/28/2010 8/28/2011 8/23/2012 8/26/2013 8/24/2014 8/24/2015 8/30/2016 8/29/2017 Haha. I got the robe finished late last week. I ended up taking the collar off the robe and sewing it onto a t-shirt that I'll just wear underneath it. It made life a whole lot easier. Friday was wig melt-down day. Had to completely take apart everything I'd gotten done on it prior to ...
I knowwwww I just posted yesterday and normally I try to put more space between posts BUT yesterday was a big day. And it IS DragonCon season which means I'm working on a lot of stuff and multiple posts in a week should be expected & allowed. Ok let's get the bad out of the way. Well I'm not going to call it bad. I'm going to call it colossally ...
Despite that title, I'm starting with art today just because I have a bunch to untangle from last week. Including a HOUSE INTRUDER, a LOT OF SEWING, some MOVIES, and DOG-SITTING! Since last post I've only focused on knocking out Clone Wars stuff. Here's what I kept calling "Loyalist Committee Lite" I totally just used the skirt embellishment from my own Loyalist Committee art, I did NOT feel like drawing ...
After my excitement about maybe going to Star Wars Celebration next year in my last post, today I have to let all of the air out of the room. Since then all the 5 day passes have sold out, as well as Saturday only. We were going to have to wait on tickets til we got Chase's bonus at the end of the year if we decided to go, and seeing ...
This weekend was busy. Friday night was more work on the house, I got a little sewing in, but mostly it was getting ready for Saturday morning's yard sale. Saturday we were up at 6AM. Chase ran and put the signs out and got breakfast. We'd put on the ad that we were open at 7 but of course people started showing up before that. We had a Chewbacca balloon on ...
Hooray for 3 day weekends! Not so hooray for spending pretty much all 3 days packing and moving stuff D: Yeah I don't have a ton to talk about today because this weekend was like 85% packing, cleaning, and moving stuff to the storage unit. We really focused on the garage and got a lot of it cleaned up and SO much of it was trash. Some of it we just want to ...
First off, saw Deadpool 2 Friday night, it was funny, really enjoyed it. Saturday and Sunday were allllllllllllllll packing and moving stuff to the storage unit. Saturday in particular was up early and nonstop all day. (Sunday we had to take a break for a retirement party in the afternoon.) I am still sore. And our giant storage unit is almost full and we haven't even moved the bulk of the ...
Soooooooo I know I'm late posting this week. I decided to wait til I had some updates on my Crait Leia. And they are not great updates unfortunately. I'm going to carve this post into sections, since I have multiple things to talk about. CRAIT LEIA Ok I'll start with Leia since I've already said something about it. I had to go BACK to Walmart last week to get more ...
Thursday last week was our 10th wedding anniversary!! It's crazy to think it's been 10 years! On Thursday I posted all my fav wedding pics to my instagram story.... I've had a few friends get married recently and seeing their day on social media made me sad I didn't get to do that (since instagram didn't exist when we got married and it'd be another year before we got our first ...
