My late nights and early mornings

 I'm so excited about the orders that have been coming in and I haven't even posted the redesigns yet! I have always been a night owl, but now I hardly sleep at all. I'm up all night sewing/designing, working on advertising, updating the website. I'm up during the day working on shipments, updating facebook, twitter, the blog, planning the launch party, preparing for the photo shoot, responding to emails, sending out receipts, and networking. It's exciting and draining at the same time. It's only been a little over a month since I put the (unfinished) website up and the feedback is so encouraging.
 I have an ice addiction! and it helps me through those rough nights.
My work station ;)

Back from the ER: & the verdict is....


A scratched cornea!! The picture above shows a florescent light shining on the cornea, so the doctor can determine how bad the scratch is. The doctor used the same light on me and told me not only was my scratch bad but I still had DEBRIS IN MY EYE!! So he had to remove the debris from my eye and informed me that I probably would have been fully recovered by now if it wasn't for the debris keeping my cut opened. He prescribed me some medicated eye drops for my eye so it doesn't get infected like this...



I have to keep my eye covered he said my shades wouldn't cut it during the day , but I seemed to AMUSE him he started laughing when I told him I was wearing my shades while using the comp. ;( after about 30 seconds of his laughing *rolls one eye* He suggested an eye patch (yes like a pirate) Comon now When I got home I started Googling images of covers for scratched corneas and was glad I did it turned my tears to laughter....






Then I ran across this...I totally forgot Rhianna had scratched her cornea too in 2008 she had to wear an eye patch during her performance. (now they are trying to say that maybe Chris was hitting her back then but I don't gossip here so moving on.... )



The good news is I'm not going blind the bad news is I did an eye test and officially found out I'm Near sighted ;( Well I guess it's time to find some crazy frames. Any suggestions??..stay tuned to see what frames I choose. Also I want to thank everybody who prayed from me because the doctor told me if my cut would had been any deeper surgery would had been needed...HELL NO!!

This is getting serious!!! : Is Random_id going BLIND?!!


Anybody who is close to me knows that I cant be out on a sunny day without my shades. I always had light Sensitivity, but something really weird is going on! I had something in my right eye so I rubbed it. Well after that it started hurting and turned red..and that's when IT started!! I can't look at ANYTHING bright or even colors.


So now my shades are not good enough for a sunny day and I have to wear my shades while I use the computer!!! I look so FOOLISH especially at night. (ANNA STOP LAUGHING AT ME THIS IS A SERIOUS MEDICAL SITUATION!!!) I need to see an eye doc soon!! In the mean time does anybody know where I can buy these...

Trip to the thrift: Vintage Fab!



If your like me, I find therapy in putting dents in my debt card buying accessories and clothes from boutiques and malls. But every once and a while I hit up the "dig" (name my old co worker called the thrift store because you literally have to dig to find stuff). I get this satisfaction knowing I'm getting unique clothing for such a low price. Don't get me wrong I love a brand new unit, but sometimes mixing a little old with the new makes your outfit pop. I have some friends who's whole wardrobe comes from the thrift. I can't do that but I get alot from there. Today I found some great vintage treasures and I spent a total of $18.25 and if I could have been patient and waited til Wednesday I would have got it all for $9.13!! (wed the entire store is half off) but oh well they would have been gone by then, but you better believe I will be back wed. Check out my vintage discoveries lol
Click pics to enlarge

This is lovely...Just need a few alterations


This ties in the back..fun shirt

Found this fab pleated skirt will alter it to be a little shorter only $1.70

Vintage school teacher ;)


Cute


I bought the vest from urban outfitters but the shirt is from the "dig"a little new with the old


Ok I would wear this shirt a few different ways (and no not with the sweat pants lol I didn't feel like changing my pants) with thin blk belt



With bigger vintage butterfly belt (it was my mom 's ^_^)


Or with a skirt. And that can be any skirt, pleated, pencil, etc etc.

Simple and cute (sometimes less is more)



This is so 80's


I couldn't believe it was only $1.00!! LOL



You can never have enough flannels



All of this for $18.25 (I feel like I have cheated the system LOL)
