Tuesday, Labor day and fun!


 Well I skipped posting on labor day, as I knew I had to sew in order to keep up with the shop, and I so wanted to get out on the river.  It was 94 yesterday and as soon as I had completed a said list of items and had many people drop off, Hubs and I took off for the river with the kayaks, and spent a lovely two hours.  Then we ran to Lil sis's for a dip in the pool.

My niece is here visiting  Lil sis and she is such a sweet person and so is her husband.  It is nice to see them. Then we came home and I ripped things for today.  I am very busy in the shop and I hope to kick out some major work today.

The phone has rung off the hook, with 9 phone calls to return before 10 a.m.  I actually asked a bride to wait two weeks before bringing in her dress as she is getting married Nov. 2nd. I already have 10 wedding dresses in here and I don't need the extra stress.  Also I have 10 bridesmaid/mother of the bride dresses in the shop. My goal today is to get rid of the piles, and then concentrate on dresses.

I had the missionaries, pull down the huge/heavy box of fall decor and I have no idea when I will be able to tackle that.  But probably not this week. I am ahead of the game on tossing/decluttering, and cleaning drawers and cupboards.  But I will continue.  I LOVE TO DECORATE FOR THE SEASONS.   My mother always did and it does bring me joy, plus SCHMILLS LOVES IT.

SO today:

1. finish altering karate ghee ( is that the correct spelling or is that a kind of butter?)

2. hem two pairs of jeans

3. replace  a zipper

4. alter three sets of cheerleader uniforms

5. finish a wedding dress

6. alter a formal dress

8. get another pile done

9. mend outdoor clothing and replace a zipper

10. straighten shop and organize work in the shop

11. alter blue bridesmaid dress (I got it ripped)


That is enough and I will be lucky to get this done as I have many more people stopping by today to drop off.  I am blessed with work.

Have a no idea what I am making for dinner, I guess I had better figure that out.

We will have the babies tomorrow, so I had better make hay while the sun shines.

What are you guys going to get done today?

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.
