I wanted Jen to have her own post.
The weekend was good. I put up my new art/functional um...jacket hanger? over the weekend. A spot to hang coats and purses right by the door. It's a pretty piece, and I've coveted it for about a year, but was unwilling to spend the money for it (it was about $40 and IDK, that just seemed like too much for what it is). However, I splurged and got it to celebrate my 100 days of alcohol free living (at 109 now). Saturday was also Harley's Gotcha Day, so I made a lick mat for her with pumpkin puree, sardines, and cat nip. She turned her nose up at it, so now i have this stuff and IDK what to do with it. I've also given up and just put her water in a regular ceramic bowl and she far prefers that to the recirculating bowls, so I guess I'm adding a morning chore to change her water and a weekly chore to make sure to wash the bowl Damn cat.
Didn't make it to he movie again. I just can't seem to make Sunday morning happen. Saturday mornings are okay, but not Sunday. IDK why. My mom and I went to Joann's and I dropped $150 to make a new dress for work. It's ridiculous and I cannot believe how expensive fabric has gotten. At the same time I am struggling with so many of my clothes being so itchy. I think it's perimenopause because I've never really had this problem. So I wanted to be able to touch the fabric and make sure my skin could handle it. I got a jersey knit. And I couldn't really handle every single one of even the jersey knit, so it's worth it. I also had to get 7 yardss because I bought a very flow-y patter that is a dress or pants. I'm excited about the pattern, but it's going to be a PITA in cut out. I'm going to work on cutting the pattern tonight, then the fabric in a few days. I have never tried to sew with a cat around, so this might be really interesting. But the pattern itself is going to be easy peasy, mostly just a bunch of straight seams. I'm doing the dress/pants A in one color.
How was everyone else's weekend?
