too many tacos

Back to real life after a holiday weekend. I had big plans to get a LOT of sewing done this weekend but alas. Friday night we ran errands, Saturday we ran more errands, did housework and headed over to Nana and Kristie's to eat FAJItAS and watch the Friends reunion, which was fun (and I also kidnapped Kevin. I'll tell that story in a minute). Sunday we had NO plans ...

with thunderous applause

Ugh it's Monday again. At least next week is only a 4 day work week with Memorial Day. Something to look forward to. Speaking of Memorial Day, I mentioned last week we were going to do a white backdrop shoot that weekend, because I really need Arwen and Eliza pics. But we decided to push it off to July 4 weekend, so we can focus on some house work before we have ...

wake me up

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 (...

i waited…

...until I had more content to post this week, thus why I didn't post Monday. Monday would've just been a whole bunch of gifs I made on the reface app. LOL. I did not do much sewing the past week. I guess I did so much last weekend that I took a break LOL. How often do I get to take a weeklong sewing break in August? Last time that ...

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 up here. Best coworker She was a good girl all ...

a little bit of happy

I'm starting off this week's post with maybe a heavy link: The Discomfort You're Feeling is Grief. My aunt sent me this this morning and it put a word to the way I've been feeling. I hadn't thought of it as grief. Sadness, disappointment, frustration, anxiety - but grief sums it up best. So now that that is out of the way, let's move on to happy things! First up ...

sail away

It's Monday again. And once again I really don't have much in the realm of sewing to show you guys this week. I did do a little. Excited about my new fabric, I decided to start messing around with Liberty Dies Padme. Decided that my smallest hoopskirt was closest to the right shape. It's not 100% but it'll work as a stand-in for now. Also decided that the Padme "Peacock" pattern ...

please leave me alone

It's a Monday after I took a Friday off so of course I am super busy and everybody needs something from me all at once. Please just let me breath LOL. Also the internet keeps going down. I'm writing this post while it's down... hoping it comes back up soon so I can plug my photos in. I've got no sewing stuff to show this week. After finishing the jacket ...
