Sewing and Exams and Driving
Managed to get the bodice attached to the skirt. My sister came by this afternoon and I realized the sleeves of her under dress where too tight. I think when I sewed in the neckline it pulled much more than I anticipated. But, I think I have solved the problem. I put a panel of the over dress silk into the underside of the sleeve and neckline. I cut it as a long rectangle with a triangle eased into the side of the dress. It's like an extended gusset in a contrasting color.
I have an exam at 8:30 tomorrow morning for another job. That is assuming the State of Nevada will be hiring anyone for any of the positions they have posted and for which they are testing. I also have a lead on a couple jobs here in Carson City. Then, we will leave sometime tomorrow afternoon to drive to my mom's. And Saturday, on to San Francisco! I am very excited about our trip.
I just found out that one of Tim's friends and his family will not be coming to the wedding after all. It has really upset me. I would not have necessarily expected them to come, except that he requested an invitation. He has a scheduling conflict, but we have known and communicated the date to our friends since last June. So, it seems to me that this conflict is a matter of choice rather than necessity for this person. Actually, I am angry enough about it that I no longer care to know this person. Which makes me think I may be over-tired and under-medicated. But, I also think that I don't have time for people who don't make time for us. I also have a certain amount of guilt because I dragged Tim away from all his friends. I was excited that this friend was going to come spend some time with Tim-and meet me. It assuaged some of the guilt. Now, I do not have that comfort and I am angry. I'm sure I'll get over it. I just don't expect to visit Wyoming this century.
