Ok I was hoping to have this post up last week, but Chase had a lot of trouble exporting the photos and I was only getting them in chunks. I think I've got all of them now, or at least, most of them. Might be a few more stragglers. Besides uploading pics, last week was absolutely crazy at work, and only going to get crazier... I spent most evenings laying ...
I started to title this "back to real life" but I realized doing something normal like going to Dragon Con is real life. Going back to the day-to-day of the last year is the fake life. So -- Dragon Con was actually pretty great. I had my reservations, as you may have noticed in the last post. But the low crowds, the people, the volunteers... everything was great. Of course ...
I know I just posted yesterday, it's dragoncon season, I'll post as much as I want. I came up with what I think is my finalized line-up. So let's go through 'em, because I was finally able to order a ton of stuff yesterday and I have a better trajectory than I did in yesterday's post. 1. Wanda Got my HTV ordered and it'll be here thursday. I also bought boots! ...
Ok so Disney is over and normally my brain would automatically switch into dragoncon mode but this year, it's not. 2020 totally effed up my natural brain rhythms. I am trying to get myself back into a pre-dragoncon mindset, but neither my body nor my brain is ready for it. I'm still physically tired from disney. I'm finally over my heat rash and my face seems to be slowly clearing up (...
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 - I need to finish Jean's skant for Huntsville Expo in April, ...
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 done! Just under the wire to be a 2020 costume. For the ...
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 leaf blowers and children screaming and dogs barking and that ...
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 enjoyed decorating the house, I love having the house decorated with all ...
First off I went ahead and added Arwen to my portfolio even though I don't have pics of me actually in it yet. I did take a video Friday: I took a few days off sewing after finishing Arwen, and this weekend finally got back into stuff for Eliza. Started disassembling the curtains which was easier than I expected - I have 5 ready to go and 1 more to take apart. ...
Yaaaay it's only a 3 day work week. Thankfully it seems like Luna is finally past being mad at me. She's been totally normal for a week now. We did go ahead and get a Feliway plug-in as suggested by a friend (thanks Summer!) and hopefully that will help keep her mellow. She did do something last week she's never done before: That's a little table I keep in my work ...
