Note to self...

The next time Samantha's teacher sends a note home from school telling you THREE WEEKS in advance that her Halloween costume has to be "homemade" for her to be able to wear it to school, DO NOT wait until eight on October 30th to START making the stupid thing!

If you should disregard the above advise... DO NOT set up your sewing machine on a rickety folding TV tray table and expect positive results!

When you finally give up and just hope she slightly resembles a mermaid the next day at school... GO TO BED! Stop blogging about it stupid! You are tired!

On that note...

You know it is time to give up when you start not only talking to yourself...
But answering as well...

Goodnight!
