holytoastrToe is feeling somewhat better. I taped it to the other toe which really did make a difference. It's still a bit swollen though. I really hope that goes down soon.
Loaded up on painkillers, I went out to buy fabric today. I always forget how terrible joann's fabric selection is when I want to buy something specific. After much deliberation, I decided on fabrics that I think will work for my mermaid costume.
I thought about embroidering beads to the outfit rather than buying expensive trim, but I couldn't find thread conditioner anywhere. I think I'll just plain embroider instead.
While washing and drying my new fabric, I knit and watched terrible children's shows. Then ben took me out for dinner. I got chicken fingers which left me quite pleased.
Ben went to take a nap after that and I got the weekly parental phone call over with. Ended up screaming a lot because my mother thinks I'm an idiot. We were talking about how I needed to change the locks on the doors as soon as we move in (I knew that already) and she was telling me not to get a locksmith to do it. And I told her I already knew how to change a lock. They are ridiculously easy. And then she was telling me that the old owners would give me the keys to the house. I knew that already too. How would I get in in the first place without the old keys?
It's about time for me to load up on painkillers again, and then I'm going to start cutting out fabric for my costume. I hate that part. That is my most hated part of sewing. I wish I could pay someone to do it for me.
