Friday, it just doesn't stop...


 I try I really do.  I say this as Sissie is finishing my ironing😏😏😏😏😏 She left me 12 pieces to do last night and well.... I watched Netflix after I watered.  She was up here at 9:30 to see if I had done it and....

This has been the weirdest wedding season.  I have dresses coming in that are due out in 2 weeks or less than a month. Most brides come months in advance. But two weeks? Luckily, I can fit them in, as I was caught up in July and have tried to stay on top since I got back.  

Yesterday I had a wedding dress come in and this morning another one.  Last Friday I worked to get all the bridesmaid and mothers of the bride out and right now there are 7 more in the shop.  Yes, Anne I raised my prices and no, one bats an eye. It is just crazy.  I am grateful for the work until I have to do it.

Losing a day this week did not help my schedule. I will blame it on that, not my lack of getting things done.

As it is Friday I am trying to decide if I will sew or not. I did clean and sweep the shop, and I do have a few things I would like to get done. We will see what the day brings.  I know I have clients that are picking up today. I also know that I really should get something done.  Even if it is a couple of dresses.

Right now, there are 5 wedding dresses in here all due out before the end of October. Part of me just wants to vege, but then I think about next week and say do some work you fool.

Right now, I am going to check on the garden and the chicken coop.  I only have one egg up here and I know I will bake something for choir. Better go gather some eggs.

Sissie and I are going to go run some errands tomorrow, as in go to Costco. I don't need anything, but I want to get out of the house.

The meal I took into the family last night was anything but nutritious. I just wanted to take comfort food to kids.  So, I delivered 2 pizzas, a large bag of Doritos, a 12 pack of root beer and a 1/2 gallon of ice-cream.  They took a picture of it and posted it on the church's face book. They were so happy.  I am anonymous, they don't know me well enough to identify me and that is fine.  But do I know what preteens and teenagers want when they are grieving?  Well, it isn't meat loaf.

Okay I am now going to see what I can stir up at the chicken coop.

You guys have a fabulous weekend.

Have a great and productive day 

God is good
