I sewed all day yesterday and now I have two wedding dresses that I can finish today and then start on a third. I finally figured out what my problem is... I am tired of sewing.
I actually really enjoy sewing, but trying to keep up is getting old. I am not behind like I was last year, so I don't have that stress but trying to keep up from getting behind is also a stress.
I am reaching a point now that I will not be able to take on any new sewing until I get back from vacation.
I had another wedding dress come in yesterday, that someone's grandma was supposed to do and then grandma realized it was too hard. Wedding in two weeks. So, in reality with the dress I did yesterday for my little sister's stepdaughter and this grandma fiasco added two more to the already tight list. I am over it. No more. This girl is done. I have this week which is short and then next week, and I am out of here.
We are in our hot season. 102 yesterday and 104 today. I was able to get 1/2 the weeds in the front yard pulled last night after the sun went down and will do the other 1/2 tonight. The chickens need fresh cool water, and I have been giving them corn cobs every night which they love. I change the water twice a day. Also, I cannot skip watering as all the flower beds, pots and part of the garden are hand watered. This takes me almost an hour. So right now, a minimum of 2 hours of yard duties and I really should spend more time out there. I am in the keep it alive mode for the next month.
I just responded to a txt where a client who wants a fitting on Saturday. She tried the same thing last week. I am not open on Saturdays and Sundays. People will just push and push for their convenience, and I am over it! Is it an emergency? As in a funeral? Then no come when I am open. Oh, Kim is developing an attitude. Remember the Fridays off? Well, that has not happened for a long time, and I knew it would not work during high bridal season, but that is coming back my friends.
Okay enough feeling sorry for myself and complaining. I need to get to work. When I have two dresses done and ready to go out, I will feel better and less anxious. Alos need to quickly pay my bills it is the first!
Have a great and productive day
God is good
Kim
