better and worse and words

sabineI can't tell if I'm feeling better or worse. Definitely got a worse night's sleep last night, but my voice is clearer and my throat doesn't hurt as much. Still have coughing fits, though, which is helping keep me in the Sick column.
I finished my prototype for Emi's new Elsa dress. It's a version of this dress (http://www.eymm.com/product/girls-california/), but using different fabric for the bodice and skirt. On the prototype, I put a band of the bodice fabric at the bottom of the skirt - doubled over, so I didn't have to hem anything - but I don't think I'm going to do that on the Elsa dress. Overall, though, I'm happy with the look of the prototype, so I'm finally comfortable with cutting into the expensive fabric.
Given that the plan was to have the dress ready for the Janesville Renaissance Faire this coming weekend, it's about time that I'm happy with the prototype!
I took a full hour for lunch today. I needed to go fetch food and then I needed to finish Of Noble Family, by Mary Robinette Kowal. It's so good. I was scared and emotionally troubled by what was going on and I needed to know the end. I just started listening to the audiobook, too, and it's lovely. I'm sad that this is the last book in this series, but Jane and Vincent deserve a rest.
I've been using my Espionage Cosmetics nail wraps regularly. It wasn't doing me any good to hoard them for a "special occasion". I have the glitter Baker Street wraps on now and love them. Also, my nails are in the best shape they've seen in a while.
We still can't find Ox's lovey. This is troubling. We've found all sorts of other things - Emi's red hoodie, the baby penguin stuffy, a half-full bottle (from 6 weeks ago = ICK!), and any number of smaller things. No idea what happened to lovey, though. Ox and I have a sad.
I fixed a part of my code yesterday so that I'm correctly asking the user for information and formatting it to go to my search correctly. Now, however, I have a bigger problem. My code has some kind of error that terminates the user's session. Not. good. More work for me.
And so it goes.
