I Guess I Better Blog

I haven't been blogging because I haven't the time. I still don't have the time but I thought a quick update is in order.

I'll give it to you in a list/stream of consciousness kind of way to keep it brief.

Country Fair
sew 40 pairs of bloomers for Michele
costumes for me-utility belt with bustle, finish hatter jacket, make black bloomers, new feather for my cap, and a no sew design for my staff shirt.
Pack for country fair, drunk, because we're taking David's gear out for him. It's time for Capeninas (no idea about the spelling) because David twists out arms (not).

Then the wedding on Mt. Hood at the Timberline Lodge (Red Rum) which was stunningly classy and beautiful and also was open barred. What a blast. Fun new outfit with a subtle black and white polka dotted accent for me.

But the wedding was on a Saturday so i missed 2 markets in a row. I've been back at the market for 2 Saturdays and now another wedding this Sat.

I've also had some private clients for a dress alteration, pants hem, and now the design and construction of a mermaid costume for a friend's Burning Man delight.

Plus birthdays have come and gone without the proper creatures being sent. This must be remedied. Children without their crocs are simply lost children. A tragedy.

For the wedding to come I plan to make a set of hairy eyeball finger puppets in the style of bride and groom. It will be terrible or great.

People are coming at me left and right with loose ideas of things i should design and offers to buy the first one. An eyeball pillow, which I've thought of before. I think it would be cool-when I get to it. Mickey wants puppets. Me too. Phil wants a bananaconda. Peel the banana to find a snake inside. I'm working on it. In my mind anyway.

Also my precious angel of kitty was killed by a car earlier this week. This has slowed life down a bit. I loved that girl.

Life is quite a ride.
