can't sleep..

Why is it that the one night in a year when I can't sleep is always the night before I have a 9:30 exam?!? And no I'm not especially wigged about the exam, so it's very very bizarre and annoying that I can't sleep.

I got less progress done today than I would have if I didn't have said exam as I stopped in the afternoon to focus on studying. Hard though it is to remember sometimes, school IS probably more important than dressing up. (or so my mother would argue)



Only progress today was binding the neckline and front hem and putting the facing on the back pleats. Tomorrow hopefully I can do the buttonholes, buttons, boning and decide if it's getting puffed sleeves or not. *analyzes arm flab* hmmm

Now would someone PLEASE turn my brain off for me?

I hope you fell asleep soon after posting this!! Good luck on the exam. You can still rock it on little sleep!

Did you lose weight? I really don't see any arm flab there and you've got a rockin' waist curve! I suspect you aren't even wearing a corset here.

I finally fell asleep sometime after 1, but I don't feel so bad this morning :-)

I am down to 151 from around 155 so yeah I'm down a few lbs. And I am definitely wearing a corset! i just don't curve naturally. Although I'm pleased so say it was comfortably laced instead of sausage laced.

It looks great so far! And, I seriously don't see arm flab. Before I read the text, I actually had instant she-has-such-a-nice-shape envy! :)

If sleeves would make you happy, by all means go for it, but you don't need them. :) It's looking good! I do love that color.
