Wednesday, Plowing through


 I am proud of me. Just plowing through wedding dresses as fast as I can make myself.  The key here is make.....

Four more to go and I think I can do it. We will see.

Having a hard time with motivation, but I am working on it. The motivation that is.

I also have to pay bills today and I don't want to.  Oh, Kim you need a nap.

Not really, I need to go cut the under skirt on a wedding dress and hem it and then place the horsehair braid. And we all know how much I love horsehair braid. 

Then you need to call client and start on the next dress.  You can do this.  

I bet you can.  (This is my inner cheerleader voice)

Anyway, I do believe there are 4 more wedding dresses to get done before I leave next week.   

Then I will come back with Sissie and all my problems will be over.  *Snort*

Okay I am alive, I am sewing. I am not having as much fun as I would like.

  3. A strange question for you….could you just decide not to do wedding dresses if they drive you mad? Or little person clothes? Or does it vary, some dresses are fun, others a nightmare? I realize work is money, but you have more work than time it seems. Hilogene in Az.

  5. You are doing well Kim ... & you are so right - we just need to keep telling ourselves that we can do this & try & shut the negative-nelly voice up that's constantly in our heads (!!!) You can do this Kim 😉

  6. Your work is hard because you can't go home from work and you have no union to protect you.

  10. I give myself pep talks all the time, but particularly when I'm working out. "You've got this." "I know you can do this" and the like. I'm not sure if it works or not, but I keep doing it! (Hawaii Planner)

  13. I lost my partner about 2 1/2 years ago from a sudden heart attack. Three days after he passed my dad passed away as well. I understand so well the fight to get motivated to do things after losing your husband. I am only now getting some motivation back so I feel for you. I just wanted to say are doing well to push yourself to do the work you need to done.
