2020 wrap-up

I always looking forward to doing my end of the year costume wrap-ups. This year is sad. I really didn't think a year could get worse than 2019 and that 2020 would be a great year. Instead we got a dumpster fire. I'm angry, sad, depressed. All I want is to get eat pizza in a restaurant. Anyway. I did actually get a decent amount of sewing done this year despite having ...

hooked on a feeling

Today I have the last bit of photoshoot stuff to post! And I'll also say the website is fully updated, 2020 projects added, new photos added (except Hera, she was the last set, I'll get her added soon.) Hera photos! Very happy with these. Padme nightgown shots! I did some with and some without the baby bump. I like the non-baby bump ones better... EXCEPT that I didn't realize one of ...

a 4 day weekend and nothing to show for it

Like seriously I don't have much of anything to post today. I had big plans for the weekend... I took Thursday off, and had Friday off. Pretty much everything got derailed. One of the main projects I wanted to work on this weekend was redoing my closet. I didn't get to do that because... oh wait. Did I ever mention our plumbing issues here? I can't remember and I'm too ...

imagine a world where time has no meaning

because that is the world I am living in. It's like time stopped in March and there is nothing to delineate the days from each other except some days I have to sit at a work computer in one room and some days I lay on the couch with my switch. Like I go outside and it's like... how is it 90 degrees? It was just March and still cold out. ...

sew what

Oh look another weekly blog post where I have nothing to talk about because I can't go anywhere and everything is canceled and I have no motivation to do anything. Well actually we did go to Home Depot last week. While there we got paint for the upstairs bathroom so we can finally start redoing it. I was going to clean the bathroom out so we could start painting this ...

a little bit of happy

I'm starting off this week's post with maybe a heavy link: The Discomfort You're Feeling is Grief. My aunt sent me this this morning and it put a word to the way I've been feeling. I hadn't thought of it as grief. Sadness, disappointment, frustration, anxiety - but grief sums it up best. So now that that is out of the way, let's move on to happy things! First up ...

well im still here

I was supposed to finish up moving my site last week but I still haven't done it. I mean all the content is moved I just haven't repointed the domain yet. I guess at this point I'll try again tomorrow and for now go ahead with my weekly post... otherwise I don't think I'd ever get around to posting this week. I really don't have a lot to post this ...

2007 in review

Well since I'm mostly done for the year - outside of my little secret project - I'm gonna go ahead and post this. I've had it done for a while actually LOL At the beginning of the year, this is what I wanted to accomplish... keeping in mind that when I wrote this, Chase hadn't proposed yet and changed a lot of our plans for the year!! 1. Ceremonial Leia v.2 ...

Finished Costume: Marasiah Fel

I've finished my Marasiah Fel costume and have added it to my portfolio!

DRAGONCON 2007 PICS!

Well, actually I'll start on Thursday :) Thursday morning was a mess, I was running every which way trying to finish packing, finish a few non-costumey projects (Costume Monkey shirts for the girls) and getting the van loaded before Chase got home at noon. My boxes and stuff, almost packed. My cousin Catherine was volunteering this year. She needed to actually be there Thursday morning but was unable to make it, ...
