It was so nice to see the Wedding Dress from Hell leave the shop this morning. I will never again do an alteration like that. Just too much work and stress. But it is done and it was so nice to get so many cheery comments from people when I got back. Thanks for having my back.
I am still not out of the woods so to speak as the shop is full and there are still loads of dresses to conquer in the next two weeks and the pile needs to be dealt with.
Wouldn't you know it is so beautiful right now. It is supposed to be 85 today so I may slip out this afternoon for a snooze on the deck. Just a 1/2 and hour of baking and then back to the grindstone.
My house is so dirty right now it is sticky. But this too will pass. So glad Sissie is not here to scold me. I wish Sissie were here to help me. It is a double edge sword I tell you.
Have a great and productive day!

It is so hard to be inside when it is pretty out. However, sewing is the one thing I loved to do, so it wasn't such a struggle to stay in. Glad you go the Wedding Dress from Hell done. That is the kind of moment that would keep me sane. However, it was usually the customer, not the garment, that was from HELL. Being pushed for time makes the Hell worse.
ReplyDeleteYeah the customers can be a challenge however this one was a dream the dress not so much......
DeleteEvery time now when I face a task that seems overwhelming I say what is see you post here. "I can do hard things". You have no idea how much it has helped me, so __You can do hard things!
ReplyDeleteI know, I know, But I don't like doing hard things, whine, sniff, crank,......... It does help!
DeleteSo happy you got the bad chore of the wedding dress from hell done. Whew.. Praying the other dresses in your shop , will be much better to deal with.. You are a fantastic person, and accomplish so much.
ReplyDeleteThank you, nothing can be as bad as that one was and never again. It is nice once in a while to be reminded of our limits.
DeleteOh yay you didn't run away!! So glad you're still there slogging through all that white material! I think I'd be snow blind! Oh a nap outside sounds wonderful - too bad there's a monsoon going on here at the moment!
