Wednesday, I want to go back to vacation mode


 Stayed up until 11 last night doing the hand work on a wedding dress that is done!

Today is all about getting another ready to go and few other goodies, like a bridesmaid dress or two and a groom's suit. 

Wedding work is coming in like crazy and I really have to produce which I don't want to.

Loved what was done to my hair yesterday.  I am so tired of not getting the color I want and as I am totally grey, I am constantly touching up the roots.  The root spray I use is never consistent and it is expensive and frustrating to use.  I feel it makes my hair look dirty. 

This turned out perfect as she lifted the color off that had been used and there is so much grey incorporated into the mix now.  This will make touching up if I have to at all much easier.  

Anything to have less time on fru fru.

Oh, by the way Kay wants me to lose 10 pounds....

The valley is filled with smoke again as we have a wildfire near us with evacuations in process.  Our annual disaster.  Sure, feel sorry for the people that have to evacuate. Most have livestock and it is a mess getting everyone out and then of course back in after the danger is past.

I would really like to go on some kind of a no spend challenge this next 30 days. Don't know why? Just gets me into a vacation mode, I guess.  My $5.00 box is empty, and it needs to be refilled. I think I just like a challenge.

Oh, my I just realized I have a chicken in the fridge that needs to be roasted. Here comes chicken salad and enchiladas!

Sew much to do and sew don't want to do it at all, but it is smokey outside so at least I am not tempted to escape to Lil sis's pool.  Small blessing that is...

I am going to hem a bridesmaid dress and start on a wedding dress!  Hooray!

What are you doing today for fun, or because well you have to? 

Ki,

  1. Your hair looks lovely!
    Hope the wildfires aren't too close and that you won't have to evacuate.
    You sure are staying busy with wedding dresses.
    My son is getting married in October. Hopefully it won't be so hot, and it will be pretty with the leaves changing. Now I just need to find a mother of the groom dress.
    Have a good week.

    1. Thank you, It rained some last night but plenty of lightening so no hope for fire control.

    2. Me too. I am hoping she returns to update us, she is having her surgery some time this summer.

  3. You can TOTALLY do a 30d no-spend. Food storage and neighbors will share their garden harvest that is soon to happen! I can't wait to hear about it!

    Great hair :-)

  4. With smoky air, you are motivated to stay inside and sew. I suppose you can lose weight with the no-spend. Your hair looks great. Hair that long would be difficult to color for me. It certainly looks great! Knock out those wedding dresses.
