oops, I almost made today's date the 20th. But I caught it in time. I am *not* going to make a mistake on the day becasue TGIF!![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I can't believe that I made it through my week working. I was happy that I picked this week to be my "Week Off." Gary and the kids give me a week off as Christmas and Birthday gifts. I chose the week b/c I knew I was going to be tired, so they did all of the laundry, litter box detail, cooking and washing dishes. It really helped so I could rest when I got home from work.
Today I am off to two appt's. Social Worker at 12 and Radiation Onc at 1. Really and truly hoping that he says no radiation. Well, actually, I am hoping there is some shortened treatment. I think that if he says "None" I will worry about recurrence every time I need a mammo. But if he says, say maybe 2-3 weeks I will feel like I have done something preventative. But if he says full 5-7 weeks I think I will lose my mind.
But I will do what I have to do.
I found out yesterday that digital designs are not the only thing pirated on the internet.
Cait has been looking for prom dresses and being Cait, she wants something unique and non-traditional. She found a dress that she loves, black and purple corset top, with a black tulle skirt. It just screams her name. It was a reasonable price, ships internationally. But I wanted her to try on something similar IRL so we could get an idea of how it will fit and look.
So I Googled "corset dresses NJ" to see if there were any B&M stores. I found an Etsy shop, and guess what? There was the dress (and for a lot more money). Something didn't feel right so I contacted the Esty shop owner asking if she was affiliated with the other website, but I had a feeling she was the real deal. The website was a Chinese Knockoff who was stealing her designs and photos.![Mad :mad: :mad:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
We have an appt to meet with the real designer in two weeks. The dress is out of our price range, but we'll figure it out. The dress designer says on her website that there is a fee for Plus size to compensate for more fabric and time making it (these are all custom made). Maybe when she sees how petite cait is, she can subtract it LOL
OK my lovely O-Fam, I am running behind since I blabbered on and on this morning.
Love and hugs and coffee!
Happy Scrapping too!
