Posts about our home; we moved in January 2019 and of course there are lots of posts about it.

a blue rose case
Since I posted on Wednesday I really only have the weekend to talk about here. Friday Ash and Gabe picked me up after work so we could meet Chase downtown (easier for him to go there straight from work) to go to the Monster Market opening night! I wore Diane, because where the hell else am I ever going to…

ptsd on the daily
I still have nothing to post this week LOL Things I did accomplish this past week – I added some darker reds to my Wanda wig and ran the steamer over it to loosen up the curls. On the fence as to whether or not I want to completely recurl it. Guess I need to try it on and see.…

driven mad
I’m slowly being driven mad by our neighbor’s dog. I think I’ve complained about it here before, but it’s the people behind us and one house over. They had been SO MUCH better about not leaving the dog out the last couple of months, and now this past week, he’s been left out for hours every single week day. He’s…

i want auroras and sad prose
Guess what? I’m coming at yall live from my new laptop! Chase did try to fix my computer, ordered a new battery, etc. But the writing had already been on the wall for that laptop; it was buggy and super slow, and photoshop did not like it at all, I’d regularly have weird things happening in photoshop because the graphics…

the horrors persist, but so do i
Whelp. Remember how last week I talked about my dressform breaking? Well, it broke AGAIN. I was readjusting the waist measurements and the entire interior waist components popped off. Ugh. Guess a new form is what I’m spending my christmas money on — though apparently they dont make the burgundy one anymore? I’m going to have to get the beige…

happy june
It’s June which means we are now FULLY into Dragoncon mode. But first Kevin’s room. I talked about the trim colour last week but I took this pic with the swatch of the colour and I SWEAR how are these the same? They do look closer to each other in non-direct light, but here in direct light in the window…

card declined
I love having to get a new debit card because of the “potential” it could’ve been leaked and having to go through and update my card everywhere. You never guess every single place it needs to be updated. Woke up this morning to a message that my card had been declined on a subscription I’m currently on, never even thought…

what year is it??
I think I mentioned last week we’d been having internet issues? I can’t remember. Was having issues UPLOADING mostly, downloading was fine but — for instance on friday? It took TWO HOURS to upload a tiktok video. Geez. We’d have occasional internet blips too, wi-fi would stop working for a few seconds, maybe a minute, and then come back. We…

treat yo’self
The days are changing – the sunlight in my work office in the morning is absolutely killing me. It’s reflecting off the glass of my desk and directly into my eyes. I’ve had to pull up the ends of the curtains to lay across the glass to block it. And this is why, last week, I built a blanket fort…

this house has people in it
Welcome to Groundhogs Day where it’s Monday in 2020 again and nothing has changed. I actually do have quite a bit of content to share today though. Let’s start with random stuff from the past week. First up, we got our ruggable! I really love it! It’s going in our bedroom at the foot of our bed, and this week…

its my birthday too
I think I’m going to have to change my weekly post date. Mondays have become too hectic. I like to post Mondays because the most stuff happens over the weekend, so I remember most everything. But I think I’m going to have to start looking at Tuesday or something. But I’m here to try to get a quick post out…

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…

i have things
For the first time in a few weeks I actually have things to post! WOW First let’s talk about the pet dramas. My parents rented a cabin and went on a short vacation last week. So Skye came over and stayed with us. It was nice to have company in my work office all day, since Luna won’t ever come…

it’s another post with no content
Hey look it’s Monday again and again I have nothing of interest to post today. I had wanted to finish up Sleeping Beauty this weekend. I did not. My eyelets for the bodice were supposed to arrive Friday and they didn’t. They show delivered but they’re not. And amazon won’t let me report it until tomorrow because they seem to…

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…

Into the great wide open
I have meant to make a post ALL WEEK but it kept slipping my mind. Last week when I posted I totally forgot to include the photos from the Padme Lake dress shoot! So ever since I kept meaning to come back and post them but here we are… over a week later. But I do actually have more content…

tired
man im so tired. As I think I said last week my motivation to do anything has just evaporated into thin air. I’ve been trying to make myself work on ceremonial Leia without much success. My greatest achievement in the past week is that my Animal Crossing island got to 5 stars. I dunno how because last week I decided…

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…

oh my
what a busy weekend. My whole body hurts and I don’t know why! So to back up. Didn’t get a whole lot of sewing stuff done last week, was still working on the house. But I did get my fabric for Hera on Monday…. Ummmm not an immediate love here. I set it out and decided to just think about…

the saga continues
So my big plans for sewing all weekend and getting lots of stuff done were foiled by fabric! Namely by the fact I can’t buy/find the fabric I need locally anymore EVER (*cough*Joann*cough*) so I have to buy online and hope what comes is what I need – either that or pay, wait 2 weeks on a fabric swatch, go…
