R's Wisdom Teeth

Her surgery went well - her teeth "slipped out easily", the nurse said. She had to go in by herself because of the pandemic. She was scared, especially of the IV, but she did great.

She's high as a kite here...

Home and in great pain here:
We took video of her first few minutes of being in the car with us on the way home. Everything was funny and she was quite giggly. Once home, we drugged her up and fed her chocolate pudding, and she went to sleep.

Tonight I did a new thing: I purchased an item from Facebook Marketplace. These are vintage Doc Martens and I'm in love. LOVE.

Black Cat Bonnets

It was decided (by their mama and me, as I was sewing the ends of these black kitty bonnets today) that the granddaughters will be kitties for Halloween this year. I reserved two of these in different sizes. SO cute! I wonder if Baby C's little newborn head will drown in her 0-3 bonnet like her sister's did. 

I also sewed gray floral bear ears onto top panels today, something I learned to do on Friday. Grrrrr! Not even Yvonne or Vivian like that task. Sewing these bonnets is challenging sometimes, but the garbage is pretty:
It was a fun day at work. Rachel made us Zumba with her again. Barbara brought chocolate cake. Nick and I chatted about movies. He brought more plums from his tree.

At home: me and my old man. I'm exhausted tonight. My body is sick and tired of processing smoke in the air. We desperately need rain, but it's mid-September and usually it doesn't start in earnest till November.
(so attractive)

I make it a point to keep my shorts and sandals available to wear until Halloween. That's how solid our September/October sunshine is. Again, usually. We've had a few crappy falls.

Labor Day 2020

I'm laboring to grow out my bangs. Why does it take so dang long??!!?

Day Trip!

Hubby and I decided to get the heck outta town today. The kids were of course invited, but we were happy to get away together.
All the supplies: snacks, atlas, chargers, FUN shoes (the shoes for when we go to have outside fun somewhere)
Sherlock is having transmission issues, so we rented a car.
