The blahs

There's a lot going on here, but I can't really talk about it or show you pictures of it.  Doesn't make for a very active blog, I'm afraid!

My job has been causing me a lot of stress, which eventually I'll be able to write about, but not right now.  In my off-time, I've been working on making some Christmas presents, which obviously need to remain top-secret, so you won't be seeing any photos of those works in progress. 

In sewing news, I do have a skirt in progress for me, and that should be done soon. Also, I've been reading The Colette Sewing Handbook over coffee in the mornings, and learning a lot from it.  I have plans for a Truffle dress in the near future, and I'm excited about that.  Of course I'm modifying it a bit, but I'll be using the Truffle pattern.

I'm trying not to overload myself with projects, because I just don't feel up to it, honestly.  Stress is getting me down, and I'm also feeling melancholy because it was this week last year when we lost our beloved Nacho kitty. The memories of that terrible day keep popping up and taking me by surprise.

Geez, this post is a downer.  Sorry!  I'm just struggling a bit and can't express myself right.  Hopefully, I'll be able to write a better post soon.

Stacy, we've missed you @ PHG. Come for the holiday party in December? If you are thinking of getting another kitty, I know of two that need homes - one is a blackish tortie & the other is a tiny yellow/white kitten. Sending wishes for a better & less stressful week very soon!
