3:47 pm - Studio stuffs
|
|
I have tons of work but the list of stuff that needs doing in the sewing studio is now to the point where I can't ignore it any more. I have to move all the books and mags from the crappy old bookshelf to the new shelf in the studio and out in the living room, need to rework all the craft draws that hold everything from riibbon to heat gun, hanging all the everyday clothing I am keeping, move the costumes to their new home, and clean off my cutting/sewing table. ... Basically I need to do a full top to bottom clean and put away. I pray I can get it done tonight so I can get back to work on orders and new winter clothes for myself!

2:32 pm - sewing list for today
|
Todays sewing list seems to be about a mile long but some of it is payed which is good. I have 2 pairs of leggings to make, 1 pair to finish, replace buttons on a dark teal shirt dress, orphan costume sample for Anne to make, and maybe a new skirt out of the 6 yards of black and white stripe. I hope to get atleast the leggings and sample done today before Skoog is off work tonight.
In other news I got the new zombie/star wars book Death Troopers the day it came out a couple weeks ago and finished it the next day. I would say if you had taken the Star Warsness out of it would have still been a good read. It wouldn't say it was anything to surpising but it was well written and very fun to read. I know it will be a regular read for me, not as often picked up as World War Z but close. I already have 3 people wanting to borrow it to read it so I would suggest any one who thinks they might like it to go out and pick it up.

10:00 pm - Skinny jeans!
|
|
I haven't worn jeans in months. Really the last time I can remember was in early May. It seemed cool enough and I didn't want to get a dress dusty with running around and cleaning so jeans it was. I pull my almost skinny girl jeans expecting they wouldn't work and I would be upset about it all day. See I put on weight, alot. Like 20 lbs since I wore these jeans. I pull on my skinny jeans and wouldn't ya know?!! THEY FIT! In fact I might even say they are a touch big in the waist but not the butt area. I now can't wait to keep going to the gym, I had almost lost faith in getting back into some kind of shape.

6:47 pm - Making time
|
|
About 6 weeks ago I thought I had gotten my dream job. Working for a huge costume house doing their sewing, my dream job really. I love costumes and I love to sew. Two weeks into the job things went down hill. I was be questioned as to being able to do my job 2 to 3 times a day. People were being fired for no real reason all around me. Finally have a couple more weeks they let as many as were left go and said they would call who they wanted back. I never got a call back. I wasn't sad for the let go, I was sad to not being sewing for money again. I kinda got into a major funk of not caring about work or even finding a job this last month. I let myself relax and get over the job thing. I feel dumb for not trying to find something sooner but I also know that if I had pushed myself I would have been very unhappy with whatever I got. I finally feel ready to put 100 percent into anything I can find now. I know that I have dragged my feet about this job thing but I know what I get next will mean so much to me. So if you have any leads I am ready to bust butt to find something and to keep said job!

10:40 am - Didn't get the job.... I think...
|
|
I applied for the perfect job almost 3 weeks ago. It was with UT doing costume work. It is my dream job, the job that would keep me happy for the rest of my life. My hands were made to sew and make costumes but as it stands the posting is up but you can't see it from the main site and I haven't heard a peep about if I am even being looked at for the job. I want to send a message asking but would hate to be a pest. I just can't decide if it has been long enough and with the posting not up means I didn't get and should get over wanting the job or if I should keep hope alive, and send a message asking where I stand. I really would be so happy if I got this job. It is hard to apply for other jobs when all I think about is this one. BAH!

4:17 pm - packing
|
|
i hate to pack... it sucks even more when you are packing all alone and have to think if someone else is gonna miss what you are packing... I need a packing coach, someone to keep me moving and not get depressed or discouraged. Also how is it I own like 50 pairs of shoes? Really? What was I thinking?!?!

12:58 am - hair cut?
|
|
kinda thinking of getting my hair cut to mid neck length. I have had long hair for almost 10 years now and just don't know if it is a good idea. Now would be the time to do what with summer coming up and all. What do you guys think? Does Rainey need short hair or would i hate myself if I did it?

8:47 am - change
|
|
its one of those times when everything feels like it is changing and you don't have the words to explain to anyone why or how. Things aren't bad just changing and change is scary.

11:20 am - I'm a witch!!!
|
|
I just made high spf sunblock that doesn't smell like sunblock! I also put it into a nice pump so that I won't have to stick my fingers into a jar. I can't wait to use this! I hope this will get me back to wearing sunblock and lighten up my arms to match my legs and belly. Oh and it smells like zydrate!

11:07 pm - unsure
|

So far from pasties and pastries show I have gotten one picture of myself. And this picture isn't while I was performing but standing next to Chelsea. You can see about 10 percent of me and thats it. I want to understand what happen. I had a great costume, or so I thought. I felt like I was really on fire that night but it seems that I wasn't enough so to over come drinks or the cold. I kinda feel shitty about this, and the longer it goes the worse it feels. I know I should get over myself and move on, but I worked so hard.

12:42 pm - last night rocked....
|
|
Last night was perfect! Molly Crabapple told me I was awesome. OMG!!!I just about fell out! I posed for her and anything! I did a duet drawing pose set with miss chelsea, so that was perfect already. I hope I can get a peek at the sketches she did of us. Don't know who she is? She started dr. sketchy's anti art school.....

1:47 am - sleep won't come
|
|
I want to sleep but I have a rough head ache that just won't go away. I can't lay my head down to sleep because it hurts to put pressure on my headache. Taken painkillers but they haven't kicked in. Boooooooooo....... This is the first time in years that I haven't been able to sleep.

12:22 am - Tricked by the universe!
|
|
I started doing yoga on a daily basis mostly to get to doing a standing back bend and to loosen up my hamstrings for when I perform. But as I was resting in child pose I realized that 15 min of yoga had become more then just stretching. It was becoming a daily devotion for both my body and my spirit. I never intended for it to be anything other then just a quick work out. I didn't realize I had lose touch with my soul as cheesy as that sounds. So now I really can't stop the yoga! I will feel guilt from two angles! Oh well whatever it takes I guess.
