 I think I am experiencing some insane post-adrenaline exhaustion. My house and my partners house have had no power for four days, so we stayed at a friends house that somehow had power. It's been roughly 5-20 degrees F(-15 to -6 degree C) and we usually don't get much colder than 30F/-1C. That on top of city wide outages has been absolutely brutal. No classes or Volunteering all week, and I haven't heard anything from work. But I am just so so tired, I've maybe slept so much that it's making me exhausted or have been so stressed that now that I have returned home, with power!, the stress I was feeling is all coming out. A lot of people don't have power still, so I am very lucky to be warm and safe.

 It's been a while since I found the time to sit down and write a post on here, mostly because I dropped my (now long gone) laptop on the floor and it broke in essentially unfixable ways, but also out of a burst of laziness in the past month.
I want to write some small life updates, and some upcoming events I look forward to.
First, I'll start with what I've been up to. As of just last week I have acquired the Karami JSK & head bow set in my preferred colorway (B x W)! I traded with a friend in the Old School Lolitas discord server, and I can't wait to receive it! I previously had the JSk&KC in sax and me being me I just can't stand pastels and especially not wearing them most of the time. 
  I also recently purchased my very first vintage yukata which I plan to wear to my cities upcoming cherry Blossom festival. The garment is from 1996 and is overall a blue-ish black color with prints of dragonflies and flowers in a neon-esque style. As for an obi I decided on a colorful floral hanhaba obi. I'm still not 100% set on it but it will do for now. In the future I think an obi with B x W polka-dots or diamonds would be very cute.
  As for other upcoming events, I soon will be attending an anime convention for the first time in nearly 3 years! With the intensity of covid in the US everything has been cancelled over and over and I can't wait to be back in the atmosphere of a convention. I plan to cosplay at least one day but other than that I will likely dress comfortably. My current cosplay plan is Space Channel 5 Hatsune Miku. I would have preferred to do a cosplay of Ulala, the main character of space channel five, but I already had a wig for Miku, so I settled on that for budget reasons.
  Anyways that's all from me for today, I hope everyone is having a good year as we approach the end of the first quarter of 2022 and remember to take good care of yourself!  -Catherine

Hello again! Just wanted to do a small update on some things on their way to me that im really looking forward to! currently there isnt alot, but its always so exciting either way.

first up is a gorgeous skirt by putumayo, lace print frill skirt, from 2008 in BxW! It will be my first piece my putumayo so I am very excited to receive this skirt.

second up, which i dont have a good picture of so i wont include one, is a Angelic Pretty Novelty Towel. Honestly this was a bit more than an impulse purchase, but no regrets! its a bright pink towel with black writing that simply states “angelic pretty” in their logo font. It will be my first ever novelty item so im excited! I think it will be very nice to have for picnics and vacations.

lastly, i have a buuuuuunnnccchhh of lace for sewing on its way! i love making headbows so i plan to make lots to sell to friends and other lolitas, wish me luck. >_<

As always, Thank you for reading and feel free to comment any questions!
