"Skirting" my issues

Hi everybody!...I'm happy to report that I am in a better mood....I started my courses with minimal issues although there is a huge bill waiting for me in 8 weeks....and I mean huge....but I will cross that bridge when I get there I guess...there is no way around it anyway.....
I have been reading a ton about sewing and different techniques and I don't know where to store the endless information....there is so much to the art...so, so much...
I have been sewing a bit too lately...my huny and I have gone to the mall several times recently and I have wanted nothing but shoes...maybe a couple of printed jeans but that is about it...accessories I will love forever but I even have someone personal to go to for those as well....all I ever want nowadays is fabric!...just when I thought sewing could not take over any more of my life, I notice it has claimed another place....I would rather shop for fabric...Shoes and accessories will be my favorite forever though....Shoe and accessories hunting should satisfy my need for shopping...
I have sewn a couple new skirts that I absolutely love btw...the first one I actually "lined" the first one and I say the term lined very loosely....let me just say I have learned that even lining is a task that should be taken seriously...LOL!...the second one has the cutest little mushrooms on it; I had been hoarding that fabric and when I got ready to sew with it I knew why...very easy to work with...I love fabrics like that...only some have that feel....both skirts are very cute and can be dressed up or down...very cool....
Totally random*****
My huny just pissed me off very bad right now...I am just waiting for his company to leave to talk to him about that....
Well, let me share the skirts and I will talk to you good people soon....

And the crash happens NOW

Hey everybody!...as you might all know I am always feeling something and today is no different...my full moon is slowly dwindling and my energy is trying to follow....I have two courses coming up and remember that huge bill I had?...well I negotiated and the end result was that I pay 10% of the bill and its a go...now you might be saying that's good, or go for it but of course there is always a catch....I don't have my book money...this last stretch is giving me the blues but it always seems the hardest right before it becomes easier....I may just withdraw and resume courses in the winter....even writing that kills me because I hate to be stagnate when I want so badly to go full speed ahead...but I just may have to do that....(super sad face)...
my huny saw my poor state and took me to Hancock's....of course that made me feel better....it always does....I went looking for two certain kinds of fabrics but I ended up getting something else I had been hunting...well, not exactly...LOL....I got a couple things too but of course if you left anything behind, you didn't get enough.....
I may whip up something tonight, I'm up doing laundry and watching one of my all time favorites~Frasier....I have some unfinished projects I can work on too...I have an idea for one bag that has been unfinished since I started sewing! geez.....well I have a few photos to share and I will talk to you good folks later!
