Why?? Must I set myself up?
I make these lovely plans, and they go to ruin! I wanted to work on my Paste now that my wired coif is done, however? I really needed to make wired Coif #2 because this one looks like an amature did it, and they did! ;P
You know what they say? Best laid plans and all? My day off started off well, I got up late for me 10:30am and I went to bed at 10 or so, I guess it must have been really tired. So I went out with Mom and youngest child so that I could purchase food, and get my nails done and copies made the list is really endless.
I did not go food shopping, I went to get my nails done, and they are so cute! I have a birthday cupcake on my thumbs, I will take pictures to show! I did make the mock up for the veil but not for the paste. While I was out Hubby asked if we can go 20 miles away to Brentwood and go see Transformers, no real biggy because the theater is awesome. But the times on the Net were not the same as was actual (arrgh) so we arrived 30 minutes too late, and now had to wait another 4 hours before the next show.
Okay so the theater is nestled in a Boutique-y shopping center, with J. Jill and Coldwater Creek, and DSW, as well as Chico's! And everyone had a sale!! Talbots which I adore, however? With the exception of J. Jill and Coldwater Creek no one had sizes over 14 ( which was called XXL!!!????!!!) So I said you are cutting out more than 65% of the populace and walked out, however I fit the XL at J. Jill !!!!! I have never been able to wear their clothing, so this is such a boon, but nothing I wanted was on sale!
Coldwater Creek? That was a different story they had an additional 40% off of their Sale price! So for $146.00 I bought;
4 Jackets
3- Pairs of Slacks, 2 Crop, 1 Long
3- Shirts
2- Necklaces
1- Pair of Earrings
But, I feel badly that I am behind on the paste, I will be working this weekend, so I will need to work on the paste when I get home. Monday I have my day off, I have made my 4th Dinner already, so that is ready to go.
