We, unfortunately, forgot to take a pillow with us to church this week because we were remembering to nuke "Beary"-- a stuffed bear microwavable heating pad-- for me. That said, my holiday was spent doing a lot of sleeping and taking a lot of ibuprofen. I failed at trying not to be a grumpy-gus this weekend, and I kept going between devil-woman and

I think the jacket is going to use the majority of that velvet. I'm going to be very careful and make a muslin mock-up to make absolutely certain I'm happy with it before I start cutting-- I'll only have one shot to get it all right. I'm also planning on asking my MIL if I can use her embroidery machine to embellish the lapel and cuffs on the jacket. Should be fun!

Church folks are silly. They talk about "family" all the time, but family usually knows what's going on with other family members. People at church, I've decided, are oblivious. Most of them haven't even noticed we've been gone because they don't know who we are... granted, that's partially our fault for not going regularly-- but we don't go regularly because there's always something coming up and preventing us from attending. If we were more outgoing, I'm sure our absence would have been more noticeable. It's just the whole contradiction that sends me into church rants. I just wish people would do what they say... and I really hate how they call it a "ward family". Gah!

Hope your hot cocoa helps. Even though it's going to be 101*F today, I think you may have just talked me into having a cup! =D
