If anyone has a trusted online fabric place let me know. Need some different types for my Rey costume.

I don't know if Hancock's does online fabric. If they do they are a good resource.

Today, dh and I splurge on movies and a nice lunch at.......Cowfish. Our dog had an all day vet appointment so we enjoyed not being in rush to get home after a movie. Our senior dog is doing okay---she lost a lot of weight in the past year (went from 61 lbs to now 48 lbs). The cutie that I have currently up is my "doggy niece". I chose her over my old girl because it suits the summer (my dog dislike water despite being part black lab).

FINALLY home! Tahoe is only a 2 hour drive, but with kids it takes FOREVER! It was great to see my dad's side of the family. DH and I are hoping to head back up a little later next month to spend some time at the beach this time. Not swimming, but showing it to our kids.

No plans for Sunday. And for some reason I woke up around 4 and couldn't get back to sleep. Hence the 5:45 am post. I'm sure I'll be napping later today. Too hot here to do any outdoors stuff. I'll probably just do some work around the house.

I was just informed that one of my friends passed away. I don't even know what to say, she was like 36.

Cindy, my thoughts and prayers in this difficult time. *gentle hugs*

I hope you enjoy Milwaukee. Despite some things that happen here in the media it really is a great city.

Worked last night. Helping out someone move this morning then back to the dorms for school that starts tomorrow...

I know-this is my second trip. We went two years ago and had a really good time so we're going back.

Any big plans?

Any big plans?

Two baseball games, one with seats in the diamond boxes, food at Milwaukee Brat House, and maybe the trolley tour so I can go to the public market

Nice. I work at Miller park. Honestly I've never gone to the public market. Everyone talks about it I've just never gone. Maybe now that I go to school downtown I'll get there.

My housemates stealing food I gating old guys. I'm about too start deducting 3x the cost of stolen items from my rent. I don't understand why people with jobs won't but there own food and expect me too. it's not going to happen.

Woke up and put in an hour on the treadmill, 30 min on the bike, and some weights and abs...trying to get back to ME after moving beyond the health issues earlier this year. Oh...and working off some of dinner last night. We did something unheard of in Houston in August...we ate outside!!! Not cool by some people's standards, but really pleasant to us. Gotta love it when it's not a million degrees here.

Just had my van overheat on the way home from church. Heat index of 101 and I was blasting the heat to get home.

Ugh, sorry to hear that - hope it isn't anything major

Just bit the bullet and bought all my fabric for my Rey costume. So the bulk of it should be here by this weekend and I can get started. Kind of nervous as I haven't made anything like this in over 5 years now.

My daughter started 2nd grade today! We did meet the teacher on Friday and I was sweating, hoping she wouldn't cause a fuss over our Disney trip in 33 days.

She was super cool about it and said that it sounded like a great time!

We go to Dragon Con this weekend and I'm in the midst of my yearly battle against my newest costume. I'm going to be a Ghostbuster. I can't sew very well, so I got a coverall that is the right color and I'm hand sewing on ribbon for the reflective strips. And it's a pain in the butt. But it will be a fun costume to wear.

I'm also marching in the parade as the Haunted Mansion's Tightrope Girl (which if you are local to the Atlanta area, you can watch it on tv! CW, I think). I'm also going to be Alice from the American McGee Alice games and possibly bringing my Snow White in case the Ghostbusters costume gets too hot.
