Monday, A new week!

       Anyone else suffering from adulthood?  It kinda sucks sometimes.  But I am going to be positive this week. I have so (sew) much to do.  I am blessed with work.  I just don't want it to get ahead of me and that is so easy to do with my scatter brain ways.

Had a great weekend with Kelsa, although she runs me ragged, and I don't get enough sleep.  My need for alone time starts the minute she goes down and I stay up too late and then she is up with the chickens.  But Sissie stayed the night, and I slept in and Sissie cleaned most of the house bless her.   She has my car right now doing errands or other fun stuff.

Kelsa and I baked cookies for Uncle Dan and for choir practice. Yes, I use bribery to get the men there. We made Oatmeal chocolate, chip with raisins and nuts.   I had choco chips that needed to be used, and Sis and I have so many nuts in the freezer we need to use up.  It was a very, healthy cookie and so yummy.  We also sewed more doll bedding with scraps of flannel.  She has so much fun playing with her dolls.  So, do I. I think Mom and Dad and Will had a good weekend at the tournament. So, all are happy.

Sissie cooks for me so much, that I had Dan and Kay for Sunday dinner. Found two nice rib eyes in freezer, and had baked potatoes, salad, beets and corn.  Also, made a batch of homemade rolls, then had vanilla ice cream for dessert with the fresh strawberry jam I just made last week.  So good.  We didn't even finish one steak, so I have meat for several meals this week.  I am okay with that.

I need to have savings of $400 this week to reach my goal for the month.  I guess I do have two weeks to get that done.  I will get an add sense pay out on the 22 that will be 1/4 of what I need. The shop is full of piles!!!! Plus, I have a wedding dress that is done and needs to be picked up!  

Let's address the piles.  (Just had my little person arrive with a whole batch of things and I need to get to work).  I just don't want to get behind this year like I did last year.  There are 4 wedding dresses in so far and more scheduled in the upcoming week.  This is early in the season to be getting so many.  But I do have my Sissie to take up the slack if I get too many alterations and that makes me a little less stressed. She will also keep me on track.  Nag. Nag, Nag.  But it is good for me.

Let's make a list, shall we?

1. 5 pairs of pants and one top to shorten

2. one pair of pants shorten

3. 4 pairs of pants shorten

4. two pairs of pants mend pockets

5. one shorten and one patch job

6. shorten 5 shirts replace button

7. replace zipper

8. replace zipper

That is more than enough for today don't you think? 16 hem jobs plus the rest I think it is doable.  But I won't know until I get started.  Getting started isa the hard part.

God is good
