@Ruby: haha it's all good! <3 I'm glad you remembered from way back then!

@moodyb: it's not too difficult with a machine. i actually find it a lot easier once you get started. hand sewing is such a chore to me and i only do it if i absolutely have to.

@Bonnie: Definitely. I've heard putting your face in ice water for like 10 to 15 seconds (holding your breath) helps reduce anxiety. I haven't had a chance to test it, but apparently it's supposed to promote your body into creating happy hormones and basically turn off the anxiety response.

@Totalanimefan: oh nice! i have to look into getting it too! i did not get around to playing SH yet haha. I keep finding other things to do or other things distract me. lately it's been sewing. Today i was working on my hubby's blanket, found out i don't have enough blanket binding to make it all the way around it, so i have to go to walmart soon to get more before i can finish the blanket. And then i have a quilt i've been working on too.my ADHD hyperfocus/special interest brain has been ruling my life and stopping me from playing games lately.

@Bonnie: Thank you, i appreciate it! I hope you're feeling a bit better after the panic attack. Hopefully you can figure out a way to lessen the anxiety.

@Totalanimefan: I agree. Fortunately, i didn't loose too much, so it wasn't too bad. I haven't played it since last month, and i stopped watching the marvel movies cause i got stuck on the falcon and the winter soldier. i was having difficulty getting into the show. But i might play SH today.

@LilMissKushy: Thank you! no, it was a random. Though, i think if i had a guinea pig or a small animal like that i would have made it a dress too with my remnants!

Since sunday i've been working on this dress i made! I still have a few adjustments to make so it fits my body just a little bit better. But, this style of dress is nearly impossible to find in my size so i got excited when i found a pattern for it in a close enough size that i could grade it up to my size! So sunday i spent my whole day working on sizing up the pattern, then monday i cut everything out and started to try to make sense of the pattern instructions, tuesday i finished the bodice, and wednesday i attached the skirt and the zipper- my first zipper ever! and then today i brought the bodice in a little because it was quite loose. Because of where i brought it in, i had to redo the zipper. Unfortunately i did not take any pictures of the dress today after i brought it in a bit. It still has a little more to go in around my waist before i'll be happy enough to say it's finished, but so far it's good enough to wear!

images don't like me, so here's the links!

I used to feel like that. I stopped because i realized that stressing over other people's feelings is just something that i shouldn't do. Other people's feelings and emotions are not your responsibility when you are not intentionally being hurtful or rude. You're doing things right by listening to their opinions and apologizing if necessary. I'm sure an explanation as to your side of things helps too, if you feel it needed, but i don't think you should feel obligated to explain yourself when it wasn't something intentional or hurtful, either.

Honestly, intentions matter a lot. unfortunately, not everyone will know your intentions. but that's okay. it's not on you to make everyone happy. just yourself.
