Saturday, Another chart!

     Well another chart was completed yesterday so I will quit complaining about having to work on Friday.  I was finally able to get a really hard pageant costume done last night.  It was a bear cat let me tell you.  It is at the time now that I will start putting work off until after the wedding, unless it is really simple like hemming.  I have enough to stay very busy with what is in the shop.  Any dresses that come in for July will have to go somewhere else.  I don't know where but that is not my problem.  I just can't do it all.

     Last night I slept at Lil sis's as I am watching her boyfriends dogs.  It was quiet and I was able to get the beading done on that pageant dress. Hooray!

     One of the dogs is really old and needs to be helped up the stairs.  They are both cute.  I have to stay there tonight also.  Lil sis and boyfriend are going on a river raft trip about two days long so this was the solution for the dogs.  I don't mind she only lives 3 minutes from me and I can run back and forth with ease.

     Hubs and I are going up to St Maire's today to look at another piece of land.  He is hovering while I post as he wants to get going.  I want to make some sandwiches and pack a few water bottles and fruit .  It is a 5 hour round trip and I don't want to spend  money at a high priced little town service station or store.

     When I get home tonight I am going to take B's wedding dress over to Lil sis's and work on it.  I am also going to get the grooms suit altered.

     It is going to be crazy busy next week.  I have so much to do, but at least money will roll in and I will save it up for extra for the wedding or the house.  Hub's and I went and bought all the Salmon yesterday for the wedding.  We bought a 5 lb whole one to smoke and then 4 others to grill.  We are lucky to live close to an Indian reservation that can fish for sockeye all year round.

     B's veil also came in yesterday so that is taken care of.  I actually ordered it off a cheap web site.  I could have made it but time is money right now. For the amount of time it would have taken me I was money ahead to order.

     Well I am going up to pack a lunch and get ready to go. I love a drive in the country it is relaxing to just dream and look at the mountains.

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.

Kim

  3. I think it must be relaxing to look after the dogs, because while there, you are only doing TWO jobs at once!

  4. Dog sitting seems less taxing than so many other things on your list. I'm still amazed your catering your own daughters wedding. Please say you have others to serve and cleanup though.

  5. I'm glad you were able to get the hard pageant costume done.That's great. We've had several visits with other people's dogs this month, it's been fun as I like dogs. Cas too for that matter. I hope you have great Sunday.

  6. Hello Kim, You work really hard my friend! Don't forget to take care of YOU along the way. I am working on a patchwork fox Order for a customer at the moment - a pair of them. They are tricky & I am feeling like throwing them out the window so I think of you & your pageant costume & how you persevered. Have a great week Kim. xx

  7. I can imagine that those little critters are a real pain, I always think of the money and it motivates me so i hope you charge plenty for your work.
