looks like somebody has a case of the mondays
Good grief I can’t remember what I posted last week except that sad dog, I’m going to have to go back and look to see where I left off…. Ok. Now I’m on track. Last week I said I was going to dye that silk on thursday well I did it Monday night. I put both my excess fabric (meant…

sad dog face
I have a lot of sewing updates today! Well nothing like MAJOR but compared to the rest of September’s posts, it’s comparatively a lot of progress. LOL. I decided to name today’s post after the first thing I saw when I clicked over to my pictures for today’s post, and the first thing I saw was a sad dog face.…

itsa my birthday too
Hi Hello I actually have content to post this week! I worked overtime last week so I could be off on my birthday. I slept in, got up and finished cleaning the house, went to lunch with my parents, took a nap, went and got Kevin and by then it was party time. Obviously my birthday party theme was Raid…

its another monday
How do I even start this post off? Ugh. I mentioned in my last post that Chase’s mom was improving, but on Tuesday she passed. It was a shock because she’d been so much better. Can the universe please just give us a break? Yesterday we made arrangements to fly up for her Celebration of Life in a few weeks.…

i got nothing
seriously I’m not even sure why I’m making a post today, I guess habit? Because I have nothing new to post about today! This weekend was hard. I don’t like going into personal life stuff online too much, so I’m struggling with how much I want to post here. Basically the weekend of Dragoncon 2 things happened; first, Chase’s mother…

Dragoncon 2019 Wrap-Up
It’s my favourite post of the year! The post where I get to recap Dragoncon and post all my fav pics. So Wednesday I went into work early so I could leave early (2), which ended up not being necessary… I’d pretty much gotten everything packed Tuesday night and all I really had left was stuff like my toothbrush, medicine,…

a few last minute pics
AHHHH god I still have to work today. I’m off at 2 and we’ll probably hit the road at like 5 or so, so we won’t be into Atlanta until very late. I figured I’d post my last handful of progress photos. Finished necklace! Well, mostly, I was about to glue the necklace chain in place. Chase got the mother…

risk category 5
We are officially in risk category 5, but I have achieved my state of clear. Everything is pretty much done at this point. Now it’s just struggling thru half this week at work until I can set my out of office and I’m on the road. Friday afternoon I got my hairs re-redded. And brows waxed. Slowly emerging from the…

friiiiiiiday update
So first a Chase update. LIke I said in my last post, he ended up having to call an ambulance and go to the ER. My parents were thankfully able to sit with him until I got off work. They did another MRI and gave him a ton of pain meds and some muscle relaxers and by the time he…

who was phone
Well. Chase was feeling a lot better last week. Was able to go to my cousin’s wedding reception Friday night (he just stayed in a wheelchair), Saturday he was able to walk around and do his own stuff and and even came upstairs once, and that afternoon drove my car to Hobby Lobby (he stayed in the car while I…

that’s enough for me
Yes I’m posting on a Friday, the world has gone mad. Nah we’re just in THREAT LEVEL DRAGONCON so I thought I’d do an extra update. First, Ash and I had a good time in Nashville. Today’s post title thanks to this wonderful album cover we saw at Great Escape. We had time to run around a bit before the…

xylophones
Did anybody else’s elementary school music class consist of mostly playing xylophones? Everytime the teacher assigned us a xylophone to play, I was always given one of the tiny ones to play. I always really wanted to play one of the bigger ones with the little mallets. Nobody ever let me play the big ones with the mallets. I’d sneak…

Dragoncon State of the Union: August Edition
I know I just kinda wrote out a to-do list in Monday’s post but my brain is screaming in anxiety today and it helps to write lists. So I’m going ahead with my August state of the union. 1. Dr Crusher is DONE! Finished her up last week, last few details like sewing in magnets for the communicators, styling the…

weird & wacky
When you have so few pics for today’s post that you don’t even have a good one for a header… So what a freaking weird weekend it was. I don’t actually have a lot of photos to show today. Last week I focused on finishing up Crusher – I got the shoulder pads in, shortened the sleeves, got the magnets…
-
more than a feeling
I don’t have a TON to show today because even though I worked nonstop every night last week, it was all finishings on the jacket/redoing the sleeves/getting all the closures put on and taken off because they’re not right and put back on and oops it needs to be a half inch lower, etc. That being said my vinyl for…

Two Tales of 90s Child Abandonment
I can’t remember what it was that made me think of one of these stories, but then while I was thinking about I remembered… hey I kinda got left somewhere by myself for a long amount of time probably around the same timeframe. And stuff like this doesn’t happen anymore without somebody calling the cops or CPS but back then…

MEH
So to conclude the saga of the artist who won’t send out the stuff I bought from him… doing a chargeback with our bank today. Disappointing to say the least. So let’s see, what have I done the past week? It took me a few days to recover from ABC so last week I didn’t get a ton done. Started…

walking the children in nature
what a week! I am a permanently exhausted pigeon. Since I last left off, Scott got in Tuesday! Chase took the rest of the week off so the two of them could go get in to trouble and just hang out. Meanwhile I still had to work and was up at 5:30 every morning so I could work extra to…

Dragoncon 2019 State of the Union – July Edition
It’s been about a month since I posted my Dragoncon State of the Union. I thought it was time to update since then. As a reminder: I put everything on hold for about 2 weeks while I quickly whipped up a Misato costume for Anime Blues Con this coming weekend. It was nice to take a break from stuff and…

might as well be walking on the sun
We are now beginning WEEK FOUR of having no AC at work. UGH. They were here last week on wednesday working on it, had a crane lifting parts in place. And yet its still not working today, what is happening?! The biggest issue with it is I think this is the reason my face is broken out like a hormonal…
