More management drama! The captain who was out on the "extended vacation" has now taken a voluntary demotion to Lieutenant. o.o Scuttlebutt ranges from everything like "they got in a fist fight!" to "it was a dispute about rosters that got out of hand in front of the Sheriff" so who knows what's going on. That leaves us down one chief, one captain, and plus one lieutenant with no lieutenant posting open so he just sort of exists without a definitive job to do.

Trying to figure out the best use for the kimono pieces that I purchased. My original thought was a princess-line natural form dress to best make use of the fabric, but now I'm not sure if that will showcase the border with all the embroidery best. Not having the sleeves is a big bummer since they usually have a big part of the print/pattern on them. But, if I had the sleeves, I would be more tempted to put the kimono back together than to use it for a Victorian gown, so eh lose/lose I guess?

The package with the kimono is currently at the local distribution center, and I should have it in hand either tonight or tomorrow. I don't know if I'll start work on the dress right away, but I am itching to sew something.

Made tortellini in meat sauce last night, and it was pretty good. M devoured two bowls of the stuff, so at least it was a hit with him. He requested more beef for tonight, ugh, so I need to figure out another dish.

Feeling very "touched out" today. I get home and immediately have cats on my lap. I make dinner and wash dishes, sit back down, cats. M finishes eating and wants to cuddle on the couch. I take a shower, get into bed, he wants to cuddle in bed. ~sigh~ I know his "love language" is touch, but it really is not for me. I feel like I haven't had a quiet moment on my own to relax.
