today's progress

I backed out of the RCHS event today. I just wasn’t feeling great thanks to the heat yesterday and it was supposed to be brutally hot again today. I'm glad I didn't go as I started to feel worse as the day progressed. Mom felt the same way a couple of days ago, (bone tired, achy, slightly sore throat), but the symptoms didn't last long so I'm wondering if it's some 24 hour bug. It could just be my hectic schedule catching up with me too. I feel bad about not following through on my commitment but staying home for a day of rest was the right decision.

I got the toile of the cross-over bodice all sewn together but didn't feel up to doing the corset thing so I set it aside and worked on the Pearl. I got a whole motif done today (yay!), so I'm ahead of "schedule".

It won't last long I'm sure but it's a nice feeling at the moment. :>

Thanks. Unfortunatly I'm feeling about the same, Dad's home sick now too. Blah. At least I know I can get some pearling done feeling like this. It could be worse.

Progress is a very good thing indeed.

It sounds like you needed the day off from obligations!

And you can do it on the Pearl! It will look fabulous and I may have to steal and/or stare longingly at it in August. ;o)

I did. I just need to start saying no more!

You steal it and I will sue. :P However petting and stroking are highly encouraged. *hee hee*
