Whew! I made it through today's photo shoot. I didn't finish one blouse I was hoping to. I made it as far as putting in the sleeves but knew that I would never get the collar and buttons on in time, considering I needed to pin and hem a skirt this morning after my model arrived. Now, I've got a little breathing room until the next round. I've got that shirt to finish, a coat cut out for I15 and a few more things in the offing. Today was a ladies shoot, I didn't feel I had enough stuff done for the guys for them to turn out in the rain. So more sewing is in the offing for me. I'm hoping for April or May for this one.
I also really, really need to step up the workouts if I'm to be zombie ready in July for our race. Things have been totally hectic around here. This week: Justine was home for Spring break, we celebrated K12 morphing into K13! My baby is now officially a teenager. EEK! I15 finally got his learner's driving permit. We had a band concert on Wednesday night, my brother had surgery on his knee and I've been sewing like mad and doing things like making goggles and hats.
But, it's also time to start little seeds. Woo Hoo! So that is on the agenda for tomorrow. I can hardly wait to get my hands in some dirt. It's been raining all day. Good for the moisture but not so hot for our photo shoot.
But, now that I've gotten through the first shoot, hopefully I'll have a little more time for blog reading. I feel out of the loop because I've been bad about keeping up with all of you.
Sounds like you've been terribly busy and also having a new teen will add to the confusion and activity around your house!!I'd love to start quilting again. Have a good Sunday! Yea Time Change! ...debbie
ReplyDeleteUgh, time change! While I like the extra light at the end of the day, I hate, hate, hate leaving home in the dark. I do hope you have time to start quilting again. I know you've been having your hands full with your mother.
DeleteGak! Forget about keeping up with blogging! When do you sleep, shower or take potty breaks?? I would fall flat on my face (or other part of my body) trying to keep your schedule. You truly are Wonder Woman . . . with a pincushion on her wrist!
ReplyDeleteI am definitely NOT Wonder Woman. You haven't seen how much my housekeeping has slacked in the past few weeks.
DeleteHow do you do it all? And still keep a sense of humor? There's nothing like a deadline to get you hopping, is there?
ReplyDeleteNow I just need to set a new deadline for the next shoot so I am motivated to keep working.
DeleteAs for the sense of humor- I can laugh or cry and laughing is a lot more fun... and a lot less messy.
those photos on your FB were stunning... you HAVE been busy!
