was thinking i might need to make it entirely from scratch but just now found a suitable substitute secondhand for the main dress, got some cheap shoes, already own at least one accessory, leaving 3 pieces to make! much more feasible before halloween. :)))

i feel like whenever i get to the last 10-20% i lose motivation to work on a project. it’s often all the most annoying parts left, and on top of that is the fear that it won’t turn out right, that i’ll ruin it with that last bit. i have not found a solution. OTL

i think i decided on a halloween costume but no one will be excited for it but me 🍄

target has hot pink slightly iridescent boots, but they only come in kids’ sizes. <_< i happen to be a grown lady with smallish feet. >_>

you're telling me first i have to go through a frickin hurricane that was setting records left and right and now everyone just north of the state line gets to see cool night sky stuff??? this feels especially unfair. :<

:( i hope you feel better, and thank goodness your area wasn’t affected too much! 💜

lost power a couple times, and the wind was whistling hard around 4 am last night, but everything seems okay here.

we finished most of our prep yesterday: pantry filled up, car has gas, cash on hand, boards over windows, sandbagged door most likely to flood, filled the tub, made extra ice, husband baked some blueberry muffins. now for waiting around anxiously inside my darkened home while we wait for the storm.🧍🏻‍♀️
