chocolatepotLegs are KILLING ME after I went on a 2-2.5 mi walk today in unsuitable worn-out sandals because I sometimes get tired of being that dork walking around in sneakers and ankle socks. And of course Pokemon registered only half a kilometer.
Secret Project is completely done and I'm going to send it out tomorrow and I'm so excited about it! Then I'm going to have to wait for the mail, boo. I've watched so much stuff while working on this, probably 200 hours of tv (I went through an entire spool of thread by hand). Most recent new thing was La Esclava Blanca, a historical telenovela. Very, very dramatic.
So now I have to make up the sloper Julie sent me before I do any other sewing, then do the hems on the one dress I have nearly finished. After that ... well, I suppose I should make a small elliptical hoop, although the thought is giving me hives. I really need some transitional fall dresses - basically like my summer ones in darker colors and maybe with short sleeves - and this winter I definitely need a heavy flannel dressing gown since I'm going to deal with the heating situation (set to 60, freezing; set to 61, 70-75 degrees) by trying to keep the room cold and dress warmly.
Probably I should clean before I do any sewing at all, though. I haven't picked up in weeks and there are opened envelopes everywhere, all the surfaces are dusty, etc. My sewing chair is covered with lengths of pre-washed fabric that need to be ironed.
