So Busy!
I knew getting my Groot costume was going to be tight, and I wasn't sure I was going to be able to finish it. The second weekend in Oct. I was gone for a Karate tournament.
The next weekend I worked on it, but didn't get near as done as I wanted to. I found that I wasn't going to be able to finish the top, so Sablahn and I went shopping at JoAnn's to get some silk leaves to do some scale mail and pauldrons. We ended up spending quite a bit of time there, planning things out. When it's all done, it will be awesome!
Last weekend I actually did finish the legs, and they are spectacular! But, this is the last week before Halloween. Somehow I have to get the sleeves, pauldrons, crown, and wings all done tonight or Wednesday night. Otherwise, I guess I'll just go as the satyr again. That will be fine, but I was really hoping to have this done!
Poor Sablahn is feeling the pressure too. I found out she actually took on a full time student load, while keeping her job at the mall. Then she's been skipping out on homework and classes in order to sleep. Bleah. We've re-prioritized schoolwork ahead of time together, so I hope that will help. Now when she comes over, she spends most of her time on homework while I cook. (Sigh) at least we can still snuggle at night.
