Fall For Costume – The One Costume Edition

1. Introductions Every year in October I do the Fall for Costume challenge, which always has a lot of fun prompts for posting different costume pictures. This year it wasn't vibing with me and I gave up on it last week, the prompts just weren't doing it for me. I'm still checking the prompts each day to see if it's something I want to post, so it may make a return ...

I was supposed to finish up moving my site last week but I still haven't done it. I mean all the content is moved I just haven't repointed the domain yet. I guess at this point I'll try again tomorrow and for now go ahead with my weekly post... otherwise I don't think I'd ever get around to posting this week. I really don't have a lot to post this ...

so long 2019

and good riddance! This year has been a doozy. I'm ready to start 2020 on a good note. I did post last week but it was just my year in review, so I gotta dig back and see where I left off. Let's separate this one into chunks instead of going day by day. 1. SEWING! I'm starting with sewing even though this is my Christmas post, because, if you saw my ...

im trying my very best

This is going to be me this week. Because my boss is off at the trade show I usually go to also, so I'm captaining the office this week. And stuff always goes bonkers when she's not here. I'm ok with the trade-off though. So I actually didn't get to get a lot of sewing done last week, because we had something going on EVERY night! What the heck! Went ...

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 be off Friday. UGH. But look what came in the mail ...

this week is a test of patience

Well this weekend was weird. To start off with, last night, I woke up in the middle of the night totally confused. We have a clock in our bedroom that shines the time up onto the ceiling. We haven't changed it since daylight savings so it's been an hour behind. I woke up at one point and was like "it was 3AM last time I woke up why is it 3...

scraps

I didn't post yesterday because I didn't really have much of anything to post about. So I gathered up some various scraps of photos and things to cobble together a post for today. Chase was out of town this weekend so I mostly just cleaned up the living space, organized some stuff. Played some video games. Went to Joann Saturday which is where most of this is going to come ...
