snaggle tooth

Yesterday I recieved two new things. First off, my boots came via my mom. I am very enthused to not have my toes on the verge of frostbite every time I go outside. Hurrah to that.

Secondly my new oven came, and it’s a very welcome thing indeed. Our old one was leaking gas into the apartment, not to mention it was an incredible eye sore. Even the stove delivery man laughed when he saw it, especially at the “Caloric” that was on top, whatever that thing was we may never know since it was encrusted with grime, we never wanted to touch it.

I have been working on my patterns all day today, and having been informed by a knowledgable informant that people generally work best on a schedule of 48 min work/12 min breaks I gave it a go. I am happy to inform you that every time the break came just as my brain was starting to go sour on my task and I feel that I actually was much more productive, although you would never know it from the pictures I am about to post. I started working at 9 am and worked until about 8 with regularity, after that it has been a sort of free for all.

Anyway I finished up my paper patterns. That would be a boring picture since nobody likes to look at brown on brown. Here are all my pattern pieces cut out and ready to sew.

Then I decided to make some bias binding. Now, I have done this before with success and going in I was starting to wonder if I was getting perhaps a bit to tired to work on something that I want to turn out well. The answer was yes, I was way too tired, the bias turned out a complete mess.

So I made some dinner, which it turns out I was also too tired to do. I forgot to pound my chicken so it took forever and the middle was slightly pink, not too bad though. The pear was delicious.

So being that tired what did I do next? Posted on here for some unknown reason. Wasn’t that just riveting? I’ll bet.
