there is no sign of land

Hey first I have some sewing stuff WOW I finished the lake shrug. Here it is from the front. I think I had the front finished when I posted lat week so if I did, well here it is again. So last week I was struggling with not wanting to cut the excess off the back because I loved how long it was wearing it around the house, but that ...

this week is a test of patience

Well this weekend was weird. To start off with, last night, I woke up in the middle of the night totally confused. We have a clock in our bedroom that shines the time up onto the ceiling. We haven't changed it since daylight savings so it's been an hour behind. I woke up at one point and was like "it was 3AM last time I woke up why is it 3...

I forgot it was monday

I nearly forgot it was Monday and time to make my weekly post! So last week I took a break from working on Chase's suit - we'd gotten the fabric ordered and it was scheduled to arrive Wednesday, so I took that time to do something fun before diving back into the horror that is men's tailoring. First set was some Avengers ears! Originally I was going to do a ...

it is (almost) time

Half hour til I'm out of work for the next week yeeeeeeeeeees!!! Still got errands to run this weekend, and packing to do, and a little more sewing. Need to fix Kevin's belt and I need to tighten up the yoke to the collar stitching. I realized my tunic is a little long and looked at trying to raise the hem but it would be too much work at this ...

Disney post

I got to wondering why I hadn't heard anything on our magic bands, logged in this morning to see they shipped last week but I never got a notification and neither did Chase. That's really weird. Thankfully I'd done our customizations ages ago when we booked it, so they didn't ship out grey and boring. I'm sure other people's are longer but my list of magic bands is super silly: ...

go, and never darken my towels again

I'm breaking this up into sections so I don't forget everything I need to talk about because my brain is fried. 1. Art I've done a few more in my little Star Wars project since last week. Here's Kylo Ren: whatever Here's Lando: meh not happy with how his clothes turned out. Heres Ahsoka: Pretty happy with her! I started out with a much different sketch - more of a static, ...

being a grown-up sucks

Well right about now we should had been nearing the Florida border on our way to Disney World. We would have left after work yesterday and spent tonight at our first ever Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. Yesterday we would have spent at Epcot Food and Wine with my cousins, aunt and uncle, and Saturday we would have gone to California Grill. Come home Sunday. But as of noon ...

The Disney and the DragonCon

I haven't posted much lately... haven't had much of anything to post! Went to my grandma's for the weekend. Came back Saturday just to go to the Ren Faire with friends (I said I'd do it... I did it)... this time I wasn't messing around. No attempt at curls, just a ponytail. Much better. Threw my flower crown I got at Megacon on, too. Ash and I watched Paolo Garbanzo ...

#MouseEarsforaYear – Trip 2!

It's actually pretty difficult to plan multiple trips at once, but with the way you have to schedule eveeeeeeeryting in advance now it's unavoidable. I was already planning Trip 2 before we even left for Trip 1, and now that we're coming up on Trip 2, I have Trips 3 and 4 in motion. You should see how ridiculously long my Dining Reservations list is! Anyway, Trip 2! Trip 2 is a special trip. We are going ...

The most random post ever

This weekend was CRAZY busy... Well let me start with Thursday. I started pulling out stuff for our trip this week, and decided our one stitch patch on our park bag looked lonely, so I dragged out my patch collection to see what I could do. After some fiddling around with placement and seeing what would fit, I ended up with the 3 princesses around Stitch (since he's playing a guitar ...
