Nothing's been happening in the costuming department. All my grand plans have fallen to the wayside as I focus on improving my fitness level. Plus, I decided against putting a lot of work and decorating into two dresses which will swallow me whole with the loss of another thirty pounds and then another. No point, really. Maybe it's a little bit defeatist. I'm pretending that it's me looking forward and saving my energy for when it will make the most impact. Yeah, that's going to be my story.

I do need to start and complete a particular sewing project, though. Mom will be here in three short weeks and I need to sew curtains for the craft/guest room so she can have privacy and relief from the Eye of Sauron in the common area out back. I've got the fashion fabric, I've got the blackout fabric, I've mostly got the know-how, I've even got the time. It's a matter of sitting down and actually doing it.

The other project I need to finish is the Virginia year-end financial report. That's numero uno on my list of projects for this weekend. The spreadsheet WILL be in carthew's in box by Monday morning.

Oh, good gravy, I understand not wanting to make something else that won't fit you in a little while. I hate doing alterations, and I'd rather make something new instead. After my weight loss, I ended up with basically no garb. That's when I went Roman (one size fits all!).

I am just now re-building my wardrobe. Having fun at it too.

And believe me, as annoying as this may be, it's well worth the while!

Keep it up!
