All I have to do today is get one wedding dress and veil done. Nothing else. It is a big job with so much hand work.
Yesterday was hard. I only hemmed and steamed one dress and then was able to get that other wedding dress done. I started on the dress for today late yesterday and my back just gave up.
Have book club tonight. We read The Help. I read tis years ago and loved it. I am going to pull a pie crust out of the freezer and make a chocolate pie to take. But not until this dress is ready. I do have a good part of tomorrow to work on the dress but would love to get it done today. I am hoping it is one of those jobs where you think it is going to be much harder than it is..... Here is to hope.
Tomorrow I may have three wedding dresses leave the shop and that would be so nice. Then I can concentrate on what is left. I have 5 zippers and some pants to hem before I start on yet another round of dresses.
I don't know why I feel so overwhelmed with this week, but I do. I don't like it at all, will persevere as I always do. I am sure it is because of the three days of nonstop sewing and now a 4th day. Ugh. I can do this.
I think a trip out to the garden is necessary just to lift my mood. I need to pull all the tomatoes out of my freezer and get to canning. But not today, or this week, nor next week. The tomatoes keep producing and I have no room so something must give soon. Still a traipse outside never hurt anyone I know.
Okay friends onward and upward.
Have a great and productive day
God is good

That is too funny that you are making a chocolate pie to take the book club tonight.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day my friend!
With that good vanilla from Mexico!
DeleteA trapse outside in the garden is always good for the soul - I don't care who you are!
ReplyDeleteI know it just makes me happy!
DeleteI start my day with 3 cups of coffee sitting on the kitchen porch no matter what the weather, well Tstorms keep us in. Hubby, myself and Charlotte almost every day. We do a lot of walking around with the gardens and such but the hour or so in the mornings just sitting is a peaceful way to start our day.
ReplyDeleteI scroll while I drink a diet coke.
DeleteI would be taking a "Minnie" pie to bookclub too! Of course for your bookclub, when we read The Life of Pi I had an appetizer of a long curled sausage on a plate to look like entrails.
ReplyDeleteI have to remember that.
DeleteI hope you got your trip out to the garden. I always find being around plants makes me a bit calmer.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I think gardening is good for the soul.
DeleteYum on the chocolate pie! Perfect for a book club that has read The Help. I read the book and watched the movie. I hope you get that hard dress done and get it behind you. It’s always such a relief when we get things done.
ReplyDeleteI am almost there the dress is done the dang veil is going to kill me!
