Babnanas 9: Something snappy.....Like BACON!!

[usnuzuloose]

I need to go work out, I will be back later....

 

[TarzansKat]

I love it, great job. Fitting looks good!

Thank you. The key was actually basing it off a dress I already own. That helped. I don't do patterns. We don't mix well. I do much better winging it.

 

[TarzansKat]

I look at shirts and see how thin they are and they want how much?

Totally agreed.

You did a great job. The dress IS super cute on you with the belt.

Thanks!

Going to head out for a bit myself. Time to get the kiddo lunch.

I also hate clothes shopping and don't have a lot of clothes. Nearly impossible to find clothes that fit right. It's even worse trying to find a pair of shoes.

....and don't get me started on........ BATHING SUITS!!

 

[kimmar067]

You aren't pulling kids off a ledge (after he climbed up the sink) about to jump into a bathroom stall??

<<<< Yeah... did that today...

one can only WONDER what goes through their minds....

 

[TarzansKat]

....and don't get me started on........ BATHING SUITS!!

Trying on bathing suits in bad flourescent lighting in front three way mirrors that retailers feel are so necessary in dressing rooms. I swear, if I wasn't relatively well adjusted, it would make me severely depressed.

TK .... the dress looks really good on you!

I'm too brain fried to (I know there is a path to zombies in there somewhere. ) to multiquote or any kind of quote for that matter. So I guess this is just a big fat ......HEY YA'LL!!

...I'm 7 days out. And just realize I'm 7 days out and so much to do. Yikes!

C'mon. You still have loads of time to stand in front of your closet chanting "What to bring? What to bring?"

Just what kind of packing skills do you have? I'm afraid of the suitcases for this trip. Our trips are usually 6/7 nights. And we take 2 of the extra large suitcases and 1 medium as well as the bathroom bag. Then the load of snacks, water, pepsi. (Gotta have pepsi) Pillows, and a quilt. (I do not use the bedspreads.) Plus my laptop bag. We fill one of those luggage carts UP!! And this trip is 9 nights. I see an extra bag in our future. HELP!!

... I am not one to criticize though, believe me. Even though I'm going for four days, I will not just pack four outfits, OH NO. I must have choices. I am terrible.

Ladies, I have mad packing skills. Come with me. I'll give you lessons in packing from the pros (the YoYos). We travel together a lot. We've actually had the bell captain line up his bell hops to watch us load a cart and he told his charges to watch us carefully as we were experts!

I've been taught by the best (the YoYos) and can stuff a medium suitcase with at least 3 outfits for each day for five days with shoes, accessories, pillowcase and toiletries and still make the airline weight limit. DH takes fewer items and still has to take the big suitcase! After all of the years he's traveled with me, he's still learning.

The bedspread talk reminds me of this weeks Hotel Hell. Gordon Ramsey took a black light to the bedspread. I thought I was going to puke. There were also many bugs all over the room. It was NASTY. Gordon said something about the bedspread being a Galaxy.......a whole milky way. Funny yet disgusting at the same time.

Trust me. Just leave the UV light at home. You do NOT want to know. Take your own dish soap in a 2 oz bottle and wash those drinking glasses and the ice bucket in your room.

One of the reasons I love sewing. I finally made a dress that fit for the first time yesterday and I was so stoked. The fabric cost me about $6. So my $6 dress fits properly and is super cute. It's soooo going to Disney with me.
Run away! Run while you still can!

Woohoo! Don't you love it when you can make your own?

Kimono sleeve covers upper arm area I'm not so in love with, bit of a taper at the waist, a-line skirt which is sooo flattering, and looks super cute with a belt.

It's super cute!

Ah! I was going ask how you made it.

So I guess this is just a big fat ......HEY YA'LL!!

Why do I feel like I need to come see you and help you pack? Is TK's Black Pearl anchored nearby so I can help her too?

There is just a certain comfort level in knowing its there in case we need it.

I don't have that many clothes, I could get away with a carry on bag..

Sounds like you and Pakey would make excellent traveling partners.

I and my supply of ziploc bags can arrive at your house ...

I actually did fly to WDW with my eldest brother for a week with only a carry on. I'm still impressed that I did it! It involved a big box of gallon sized ziploc bags and a lot of planning. Plus, I didn't need to take a cocktail dress or an evening gown, so it was easier to pack.

No problem there I don't have formal wear.....

Hmmm....how many time have you been scarred for life?

We're not worthy! We're not worthy!

It's super cute!

[TarzansKat]

Hello, ladies.

Anyone around?

 

[usnuzuloose]

I am.

 

[TarzansKat]

I am.

Hi!

Having a quiet moment while MJS puts the kids to sleep.

Also uploading all my photos so I can dump my memory cards before my trip.

What are you up to?

 

[YoYoAurora]

No problem there I don't have formal wear.....

The YoYos go to conventions where there are banquets, hence cocktail dresses and evening gowns. Otherwise, I wouldn't have any.

How did you know that I do that?

We're not worthy! We're not worthy!

How did I know you do that? I'm good, very good.

Oh well, I'll help you anyway!

Hello, ladies.

Anyone around?

Yes, I'm avoiding working by DISing.

Yea! I've got to do the memory card dump thing soon. Yikes! That will be an all-day project.
