I'm Late, I'm late, for a very important date.....

  So today's my first day of vacation, and it should prove to be a busy one as we plan to move out early tomorrow morning for our adventure, and i have alot to do. Two shirts to reconstruct, grocery shopping and a suitcase to pack as we plan to stay out at least one night at a hotel. Ive already finished my husbands shirt.

     The iron I managed to bye for $2.50 got a lot of use with this one. After tracing a pattern out onto my pattern paper, or what i use as pattern paper( a roll of sturdy water resistant paper almost like slick wallpaper) I made sure to cut and sew as close to the original shirt as possible making adjustment as need. I cut and ironed a piece of  the tie-dye to use as the bias around the neck line. The end results fit perfectly and I definitely plan to reuse the pattern later. Tata for now, time to get to works.

      " Sigh" It's been a rather wish washy time since my last post. I had managed to get a loan for mine and my husbands vacation and to build up our credit for future loan needs, but then afterwards I went through a time believing I wouldn't be able to get off for my vacation after all, luckily when the work schedule came out    I had the week I asked for off, yeah! So now i have several projects to finish before then.
     Were going to holiday world on the seventeenth getting a hotel and then going to the zoo early the next morning. Cant wait to go through their in door rain forest. I plan to get as many pics as possible so I should be able to post them here. that night after we get back were having a joint birthday party as both of our birthdays are in august. We will be having a wienie roast with smores under the willow tree, with frozen drinks and music should be fun. After Vacation however I'm going to have to be budgeting like crazy, I might even have to go so far as to make my Christmas gifts this year, which as unique as my family is might be the way to go if I can do them skillfully enough.

   Speaking of I had just realized the other day that Halloween isn't too far off. I have no idea what I'm going to be.  We'll see. here's a few pics o last years Halloween. well ttyl for nows
