oh wow
Starting off with the art today because I have it open so it’s the easiest thing to post haha. This is based on a ROTS era concept. I tried it in some different colours but at the end of the day it’s a battle outfit and having it be purple really wasn’t working. I tried to keep some different tones…

it’s been one week
I really don’t have a lot that is interesting today except MORE HOUSE STUFF… of course. I’ve been unpacking, organizing, breaking down boxes for a whole week but when I look around it’s like I’ve done nothing. It’s so frustrating LOL Tuesday at work last week was like, the day from hell… so I decided to go home and treat…

It’s the first house post of 2019
At least I think it is. I’m too lazy to go look. So Thursday last week we TOOK POSSESSION OF OUR NEW HOUSE!! It was super exciting. I met Chase there as soon as I got off work, we had the alarm folks out to look at updating the alarm system that came with the house, and they got everything…

Especially while trying to get the house ready for moving this weekend!! But tuesday I was surprised with another package at work: Chase got…

a very moving weekend
Guess what! Chase and I are homeless. We closed on our house Friday. All done. The new owner takes possession a week from today, so we have until then to move out. It’s so strange feeling. Like I said, I’m a little sad. It’s been a great home. But before I get too far into all that, let’s go back…

YAY it’s done!
Despite that title, I’m starting with art today just because I have a bunch to untangle from last week. Including a HOUSE INTRUDER, a LOT OF SEWING, some MOVIES, and DOG-SITTING! Since last post I’ve only focused on knocking out Clone Wars stuff. Here’s what I kept calling “Loyalist Committee Lite” I totally just used the skirt embellishment from my…

My fingertips are burnt off
Everytime I have a lot of hand-sewing to do, my fingertips get so sore they feel like they are burnt. That’s how they feel today. So yeah that’s mostly what I did this weekend. Hand-sewing and beading on Tink. Didn’t use my sewing machine once because everything left had to be done by hand. Did a whole lot more beading.…

it’s the weekly monday post
Friday was busy!! So Wednesday last week I pulled out Belle to double check everything – it needed some roses replaced and some of the appliques sewn back on. And I needed to restyle the wig since I took it down for Dorothy. Then Friday I came straight home from work and started getting ready. I experimented a little bit…

A quick birthday post
I haven’t posted since Monday even though my birthday was Tuesday and I usually always post then! I’ll get to the reason why in a sec. Monday night Chase made my fav cheese fondue!! We watched the new Beatles doc on hulu. And I finished cleaning my office: Tuesday was my actual birthday and I went to lunch with parents…

A little bit of everything
I have 3 topics today. 1. The Flipping Dishwasher Chase and I have been without a dishwasher for over a year. It gave out last year… Chase tried to fix it but it was shot. (It was pretty old. Came with the house.) We FINALLY went shopping for a new one 2 weeks ago, picked one out at Home Depot…

Random Weekend Stuff
This past weekend, Chase went east to see some friends, and I went to have a Mema weekend! Yay! Saturday we went shopping and hit up one of the closing Hancock Fabrics up there. Right after we left I saw the news on my phone that the rest of the Hancock locations will be closing. I’m so distraught, I can’t…

Building a shelf
So this past weekend after Christmas, Chase and I finally got the ikea shelf put together – we bought when we were in Atlanta for Dragoncon and the four massive boxes have been sitting in our hallway ever since, driving me crazy. It was a butt to put together. Throughout the week we’ve been working on it in the evenings.…

Batgirl & stuff
Saturday I got to spend a few hours as Batgirl at the Jackson Generals Superhero night! It was really fun though I absolutely burnt up! I have a handful more; but all these were just taken on Chase’s iphone because I forgot my real camera at my grandma’s house! It was super hot, I had to take several breaks to…

Finished floors!
Saturday morning, while Chase was off shooting stuff for a documentary he’s working on, I put the house back together and got everything cleaned up. It took forever!
