it's possible Rob and I are starting to crack

otherwise things are keeping on here. I've neglected housework, and sewing and pretty much all the productivity. I apparently will not meet the apocalypse with a can-do attitude.

I'm supposed to be sewing for our PEI trip but If I'm honest with myself there's no way I can afford to go with Rob unemployed most of the year (even if they managed to go). I'm hoping the whole trip is put off so I'm not the single buzzkill.

My mind IS starting to work on Poe picnic things. I'd like to make a giant ruffled petticoat. period? no. do I want to make 15 petticoats and starch them? also no. so It's a compromise I'm making...I think?

I have a brownish/black silk I bought at Jomar...8? years ago. I'm debating buying a pattern. I do think I'd rather start with something but will it be something good? will the TV patterns betray me like the usually do with ENORMOUS sleeves?

Oh I also became a supervisor at work. but like they haven't told anyone, and I'm still taking a floor assignment as they haven't bothered to staff so that I CAN be a supervisor so....just feels weird. but yay I make more to be a hidden supervisor? my raise kicked in Sunday...

"What was your favorite part of the movie?" "BUTTS!"

Ohhh, he asked for that dress :D

I haven't seen the movie yet and tbh I don't know that it's high on my priority list, but I have been admiring the extant-based costumes when I see pictures of them online. It's interesting how they managed to make some of them so recognizable even though they simplified them.

yay for a raise?

Housework here happens when I can be arsed. You are not alone.

Congratulations on the raise and promotion!

Cute video!

Secret Supervisor sounds like a strange limbo place. Congratulations on the promotion.

Loved your review video! A nice bright spot to my day. Can-do attitude is overrated during an apocalypse/pandemic. Survival is the most important. The provinces seem to be slowly starting to reopen stuff in May, but travel restrictions look like they'll still be in place for a while. Good luck with the Poe sewing! Petticoats are always a drag, but so necessary. Congrats on the raise and secret promotion!!!
