MMM: Day 7-12

Friends, it's been an uber exhausting week.

MMM Day 7:

AVENGERS UNITE!  But first, I had to go to work...


 Sweater: refashioned sweater from one of Rob's old ones.  His sweater had 8 holes in it, so I tore it apart and completely reconstructed it. 

I was looking a little rough around the edges because I had just rushed home to get ready for...

The Avengers!


 Sweater: refashioned sweater

I was needing a bit of bright color so I threw this dress on - it definitely did the trick, and I was feeling fresh and clean before we headed to the theater.

MMM Day 8:

Something told me I needed to walk to work this morning...


I found our statue of Marilyn across from the Wrigley Building in pieces. Ah, Marilyn...you'll be missed by all the people who didn't have a chance to look up your dress and take awkward pictures.

This is how I deal with a stressful day at work:


Shirt: Grey sweater Renfrew

MMM Day 9

To cheer me up from another stressful day at work, Rob made me a cocktail with Han Solo coffee ice cubes:


This cocktail helped me to relax a bit, as did the most comfortable dress in the world:



Since this dress is made from bedsheets, it's quite possibly the best thing to wear to work- except it makes me sleepy.  I definitely took another nap after this picture was taken.

MMM Day 10

The White Meg Overbite Dance Move Sweeps the Nation:




It's a big arm kind of day, y'all!

MMM Day 11:

Ah, casual Fridays, I love you so much
 

 Sweater: refashioned pullover sweater
Skirt: Denim Colette Meringue

This was one of the most exhausting weeks of work that I can remember.  All I wanted to do was get home and sleep and last night, I slept ten glorious hours.  It was epic.

MMM Day 12:

Going out tonight!


Sleep hungover face.  

Shirt: Vogue 5542

I am headed out with my friends tonight to see a college friend in a musical. Despite what the look on my face says, I am very excited!  I love seeing my friends performing their hearts out - it makes me so proud.

I haven't done much sewing this week. It seems that whenever I sit down at my machine, I get overwhelmed and feel completely burnt out. I am hoping to be back to normal tomorrow because I would love to finish the Mother challenge for Sew Weekly, as well as my most awesome Minoru jacket that I've been plugging away at over the past few days.

Have a great weekend, my friends, and if you are feeling burnt out, have a margarita on me :)
