Monday, Spring came!

 

     Kim did not get a weekend. It was run, run, run.  Kim needs a weekend. Saturday was a church meeting and then working a fund raiser at Schmills school in place of Nathan as he was called into work for the State.  Then we took the kids home with us as Signe' had to stay at fundraiser to clean up and she did not get home until after midnight.

Up Sunday to make pancakes for Schmills and then Signe' picked up the kids before we left for church at noon. We rushed home and did the missionary loop to check apartments, which takes about 5 hours of driving.  It is done! ~  

We got home about 6:30 and it was still light outside.  I did not get to taxes, but I did get the St. Patty's Day stuff put away and the Easter things out. I wanted to do that with Schmills, and I am sure he will come and rearrange everything. I also did two loads of laundry, but that is the extent of what I got done. Oh no on second thought I did get my ticket to nieces wedding bought and that has been on my mind also.

I have 4 wedding dresses ripped and ready for second fittings.  Two have already arrived this morning and one is set for a fitting tomorrow, so just waiting on one more. I am trying to get caught up as the prom dresses will be piling in soon.  Them sometimes I think, just give up.  You will catch up next fall. I just don't like so much product in the shop. Three of the wedding dresses that are ready for fittings are ball gowns and they take up so much room.  I just want them out of here!!!!!

I am not sure where to start today, there is so much to do.  But I have to start somewhere.  I do have chicken breasts and burger out thawing. We are having the chicken today along with asparagus, some kind of salad and I am cooking up a package of spinach that will go bad. I will either freeze or put it in something. I am thinking a quiche. Now that dinner is figured out what is Kim going to do today?

1. get deco boxes put away in garage 

2. pull out something for dinner

3. shorten a white dress

4. fix a suit

5. hem and steam a bridesmaid dress (started last Friday)

6. alter a bridesmaid dress with new zipper and take in (started last Friday)

7. finish a wedding dress

8. pull lace motifs off a wedding dress and hem and bustle.

I doubt I get to all of this, but I am going to try. Altering ball gown wedding dresses is just over whelming sometimes as they are so large and cumbersome.  Like fighting a mad 2-year-old.

I am telling myself I can do it; I can do it.  I will do it.

How many of you have your taxes in? Please shame me so I will care about getting them done at all.  Please?  Pretty Please? I need lots of shaming. 

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

Kim
