Don't panic, don't panic...

There is something to be said for being the first person in the office in the morning. I'm not all together sure what it is, but there must be something.

I've been here since 7:45. At least I didn't have to compete with anyone for the espresso machine. And we'll be able to leave by 5 which means I should be able to get some decent work in tonight.

I'm still feeling somewhat despondent about poverty and my current state of affairs, but getting to see the boy, however briefly, last night rather helped. I don't quite know why he has this power to make me feel better about life but he does.

Anyway, today is my last day at work before my Vegas trip. I have a huge amount of sewing to get done in the next week, but I should be able to get everything finished. At least the work for other people will get done, my own dress can wait if need be. I can always wear my pink and black ball gown if it comes to that.

I also have a huge amount of work to get done here, but it just seems sort of pointless and I'm having a very hard time focusing on anything. I need sleep! Hopefully I will do some of this tonight and Thursday night. Of course, I really do need to get up at a somewhat reasonable hour tomorrow, get some exercise in before I start sewing, and get some sewing in before I head my friends for dinner. Friday will be dedicated to sewing and a long post-turkey walk. Hopefully I will also have time to update my blog and post pictures of things as they get completed.

The good news is that I'm modeling corsets on Saturday at Dickens. I don't know why I'm so excited about this, but there it is. I have a fabulous window worked out involving guns, a cowboy, and a wanted poster. We just haven't worked out who is arresting who yet.
