I'm ripping seams on a party girl dress for Nutcracker.  We, Ballet Moms (BMs for short), have been working on this dress for weeks.  The party girl is tall and slim but the dress is for a younger girl.  There's just not enough fabric to make it longer.  So, after trying a few different ways, and discussing it with the teacher, I'm going to make a pattern and sew a new one.  The actual sewing won't take long but it will take a bit to get the pattern made.

I didn't get to the two loads of laundry I need to finish.  One is in the dryer and one is in the wash.  Tomorrow.  My mom wanted me to bring my laundry but I won't have room to bring home the clean laundry as I plan on shopping this weekend.  Not just for presents, but for supplies.  I need to make a Sam's Club run to buy paper supplies like toilet paper.  We have 4 girls living here; we go through a lot of toilet paper.  

I got some Christmas shopping done today.  I still have a whole lot to do.  Slowly, but surely, I'll get it done.  I hope to get a bunch of it knocked off on Friday.  I'm so excited!  I hope I remember to bring all my coupons.  Did you know Joann's has some awesome coupons?  That's where I'll be getting the fabric for the party girl dress.

I started to write a status blurb on Facebook but decided there was just too much I wanted to write.  This blog post comes from that.
