Week in Review
What a week this has been!
I took last Friday off and I spent the day doing errands and then stopping by the high school to meet with my sewing teacher to have a refresher sewing course. I couldn't believe that even after 20 years, she has the same sewing machines I used back when I was a student.
It was SO weird to be back at high school almost 20 years later. I don't feel like I've been out of high school that long BUT things have changed so much that after seeing them I'm 100% sure I've been out of high school for that long 😅
The work week has been odd! We had a bad storm Sunday night into Monday. There was so much flooding and with it being high tide, it was a mess Monday morning.
Another mess this week, my mind. I couldn't keep the days straight and I kept looking at the calendar in disbelief it's so close to Christmas.
I also picked up my last gifts this week now to wrap everything and I will be done! So excited about that!
Work has been winding down and I'm getting ready for 2024. To me, its still 2019🤣
I had 2 Christmas parties to attend this week. One with an office I work closely with and then the other one was with my office. Lots of holiday cheer and surprise Christmas gifts. I just love this time of year! I am looking forward to slowing down and getting back to normal life.

This and That
I finished my Christmas skirt just in time for our office Christmas party. I felt like I looked like CHRISTMAS! Ha. I was so excited to tell people that it had pockets AND I made it. I also loved showing them the inspiration photo of baby Gabby! Onto my next sewing project!

Your skirt turned out great! We had a storm Monday into Tuesday that knocked out our power (and tons of others!) for 3-4 days. We still have some localized flooding and lots of tree limbs littering the roads.
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is amazing!
