easterrrrr
Good grief this weekend was busy. Busiest we’ve been since this whole pandemic craziness started. I bought this bunny years ago at goodwill because I felt sad for him. He’s missing an arm and his hat is messed up. I was gonna fix him this year but didn’t. I’ve left him out to fix one night this week so he’ll…

and we will come back home
Under a month til our disney trip!! AHHHHH Only disappointing thing is that I didn’t realize I needed to book Savi’s Workshop for making a lightsaber. I blame that on the fact that last year, once it became apparent our May 2020 trip wasn’t going to happen, I totally tuned out of everything disney parks-related because I just didn’t want…

big mad
Today is Chase’s bday yay!! Well I don’t really have much of interest to post this week. I’m sure I’ll talk a lot anyway. I did do a bit of sewing last week – mostly, I worked on the little corset-bra thingie. Which I have no photos of it, because it’s not really for public consumption. I finished it up…

its not always going to be this grey
It started out rainy, dark and cozy this morning, especially with the time change, and now the sun is stabbing me in the eyes. WTF. I had to pin a blanket over my window just to get some work done. Also yall can pry DST out my cold dead hands. People who want to switch to winter time year round…

Disney Projects Updates
Because I have anxiety brain and making lists of fun things is calming. Chip and Dale: So of course, Dale has been 95% done for ages now. I finally hemmed the top and put the zipper in last month, and finally finished the hat, too. So it’s wearable as is, but I had wanted to do something other accessories for…

young rich & tasteless
Just one more week before Daylight Savings Time. I can’t wait. I hate the current state of light right now. I’ve been having to pin a blanket over my work office window in the mornings because of the light stabbing me in the face every morning. Also I like the summer “time” best. So last week was… rough. I was…

here we are again
Another week of fresh hell. I’m so tired of this timeline. But in good news my parents are getting their vaccine today and we have our second shot scheduled for this Saturday. Yay, I guess. I mean I’m glad to have it but the doom-loving news just keeps telling us that nothing will ever be back to normal even with…

all for freedom & for pleasure
Well we are over here thawing out after the snow. When I posted Wednesday I talked about how much snow we’d gotten on Monday – well we got WAY MORE on wednesday! It ended up being a record – most snow we’ve had in something like 53 years?? Crazy! The backyard Wednesday night: The cove Thursday morning: So yeah Chase…

walking in a winter horrorland
Hey look… I’m posting on a Wednesday, only 2 days after I last posted… what is this, 2001?! Well a lot has happened since I posted on Monday. The “snowpcalypse” was no joke. This is the most snow I’ve seen here in… possibly decades? Remember that pic of our cove on Sunday that I had in the last post? This…

mini muffin monday morning
I got a pack of mini muffins at the grocery saturday to have for breakfast the rest of the week. This morning I wasn’t thinking and brought the entire tray up to my work from home office (instead of bringing 1 or 2). They’re tempting me to eat more than I should. Anyway I actually have some sewing stuff to…

i cant think
I can’t think of a title. But here we are with another low-effort week. I really have nothing much to post today. I finished my hat. I ended up having to take the top part off, take it apart, cut it in half (height-wise), put it back together and sew it back on. It was just too tall and made…
-
arrrrrrrrrrrrgh
That’s the only thing I’m feeling today. Is arrrgh. I just want the world to go back to normal. And I never want to hear the phrases “mask up” “in these difficult times” “flatten the curve” “new normal” “stay the eff at home” ever again. Also if some filmmaker 20 years from now decides to make some Oscar-bait movie about…

i need a fix
Hey look I’m posting twice in one week. Because I’ve got disney on the brain and need to dump it all out in a post. So I’m feeling pretty good about our re-re-re-scheduled Disney trip (was May 2020, then Nov 2020, now April 2021) is actually going to happen this time. While I know there’s still going to be restrictions…

help me wanda
First off I loved WandaVision. I grew up watching classic tv shows like the Dick Van Dyke show, Bewitched, etc and I loved having that aesthetic mixed in with Marvel. I can’t wait to see how it all unravels. Also, looking forward to WandaVision is the only thing that has held me together for the last few months. I’m glad…

what fresh hell is this
I wrote this subject like an hour and haven’t had the brain cells to actually write the post. And now I wrote that sentence a half hour ago. LOL. I am struggling today. I’ve had a migraine since Saturday afternoon and I’ve just felt kinda blah all over. Tired, mentally and physically. I don’t feel like doing Monday. I don’t…

2021
Welcome to the Monday-est Monday of them all. I’m trying to remain optimistic and put in my Disney and Dragoncon vacation days today. I feel better about Disney than Dragoncon at the moment but I am chugging ahead with all my plans for this year as though they will happen. It’s really almost a repeat of my 2020 plans –…

merry chrysler
Another Christmas come and gone. This one weirder than most. I was sad leading up to Christmas, I was sad on Christmas, and now I’m sad it’s over because it’s the only thing I had to look forward to. At least I have a 4 day weekend coming up this weekend. Anyway let’s start with Eliza updates because she is…

it’s that time of the year
It’s that time of the year… when school is out of session and children just stand outside and scream into the void. I wish I could join them but alas I am stuck at a desk working. Literally I’ve been sitting here at my desk this morning trying to get caught up from being off work Friday and there are…

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…

simply having a christmas
I can’t believe Christmas is next week. I feel like we just had Christmas 2019. With nothing happening this year, not going anywhere, not making any memories – March-December 2020 feel compacted into just a month or two. I’m not feeling Christmas-y. It’s been really hard to make myself think about presents (both giving and what I want). I have…
