Wow, it has been almost a year since my last post. A lot has happened but I am not going to dwell on the past. Instead, I am going to move forward.

Today was day 1 of a 2 day customer service training. We did the PeopleMap thing again. Much more enjoyable this time. Dr. Lillibridge has tasked us with, for two weeks, writing down three good things that happened to me that day and why. The why is going to be the hard part. Let’s see if we can make this happen.

1. I had a good lunch. Why did I have a good lunch? Well, because I did. But I think the real question is why was it good, why did it make it on my list. Well, it was decent door, for free and I ate with people I enjoy the company of.

2. Had bratwurst for dinner. Those were good because I ate with my husband and they were delicious.

3. I had pudding. I really wanted some ice cream, but the pudding was better. It is helping me achieve my never ending goal of losing weight, it was cold, creamy, and delicious!

And….looking back, for some reason, all my items are about foods. Weird. I like food. Wll, I love it.

Also, it is only 87 days until Dragon*Con. Yay! Time to start grinding out some costumes!

Whoops! I seemed to have missed a month here.

But, on better news, Costume – Pretty Dress is complete! And a full 25-days-and-a-wake-up early! YAY!

I have taken pictures of it on the dress form, but I have not been able to take pictures with me in it yet. Maybe tonight.
Here are the ones I have taken:

I’ll type up a “tutorial” on what I did in a bit – maybe tomorrow while I’m getting my hair cut. But for now:
