Away

I am leaving for a week long conference in the am, so....no sewing for a week! egads. Hope I survive. I tried to get a quick fix in yesterday to last me. I made the M5590 pencil skirt (this time without the high waist and my invisible zip is... well invisible!) and two Jalie tops. The twist 2788 out a of beaufiful wine colored organic cotton the other the Empire CrossOver 2804 out of a lightweight white cotton. All fabrics from FABRIC.COM. All came out very nice. No pics til I get back, I just got back from a 6 mile run so am too sweaty to do pics and no one around to take them for me anyway. (-:

Run when you can
Walk when you need
Crawl if you must
Just never give up

Almost half way!

Just shy of half way to my 800 miles goal this year! I know, I know, you are thinking, just almost half way and August is ALMOST over! No worries, Marathon training officially starts next month, I will make 800 by years end! You would think with all the miles I am running (and NO strawberry shortcake in MONTHS) that the lbs would be falling of..... but no. I have lost some, but mostly my body is changing, more muscle, less flab. Good thing, the gravity battle is non stop.

I have been sewing like crazy - skirts, jeans, purses.... and fabric SHOPPING like crazy. My fabric stash needs it's own room now. I should buy stock in FABRIC.COM I must be readying myself for the long winter. Stocking up in case I am snowed in for months. ((-:

Just finished a 7 mile run. I must hit the shower as that smell is either Poncho (our yorkie) or me and he is wrinkling his nose at me.



P.S. Britt bought a hula hoop. One of those huge ones with water in it. We still got it -- The MOVES that is....AND the hula hoop, she has a hard time fitting it in her car!

Run when you can
Walk when you need
Crawl if you must
Just never give up

Later!

Blogcation?

Where has my blogging mojo gone? I have been sewing, ALOT! I have been running, ALOT! I have been lurking on others blogs and reading their entertaining and inciteful musings. But I have no drive, no motivation to blog! What is up with that? I just got back from an 8 mile run.... think I will shower and clean off my sewing table and work on something. (-: Happy Sunday.
