Alice

"You won't have to wait that long, boys. Because I'm coming for you. And I'm gonna be bringing a few of my friends."-Alice:Resident Evil-Extinction

~I went to the 1/2-price sale at the Family Thrift Center. I got a snap-front long-sleeve corduroy dress to act as a "duster", a brown t-shirt with buttons & a scarf for my costume. Also, some fabric bits to make yo-yo's. At Goodwill, I found a pair of camo leggings & a suede belt (bandolier). I am very pleased!

~Back home, I put together my costume. Starting from the bottom:
Cowboy boots-already had
Boot knife-already had.
Camo leggings
Cream tank-already had.
Brown t shirt
Scarf
Western belt "rig"-already had.
Cotton grommet belt-already had.
Skinning knife-already had.
Short brim olive military hat-borrowed from Mike.
Fingerless leather glove-already had.
~So, my costume will be "Alice-like"!

~I made a Cheyenne Hat in RHS Fiesta Country Blue/Wine.

~We attended the Mallory's Labor Day/Birthday party.

for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care. Psalm 95:7

Chama, New Mexico

~We got groceries at Walmart & Smiths.

~I went up to the church around 10am & there was a dove in the Parish Hall. I shooed it out. I attended 10:30am service where I was Crucifer, Lay Reader, Acolyte & LEM. I was the only one who showed up, along with Fr. Jim. It is really more than one person should do, as I did forget to open the gates after communion. I helped Anne with Coffee Hour. I did a little office work, since Fr. Jim will be gone next week.

~I spent a few hours researching my costume for Halloween. I'm going with a version of Alice from Resident Evil Extinction. Of course, I won't have all that skin exposed nor cost that much LOL! I'll be looking for the parts tomorrow at the 1/2-price sale at the Family Thrift Center.

~Date Nite: After warmups, we did precision drills at the 3-5-7-10-15 yard lines. The first drill was untimed & I came in second. After that, it was timed & I didn't do as good (timer anxiety!). I learned that I was not drawing smoothly in one stroke, so I practiced and had a new fast time at the 10-yard line at 1.86! Woo Hoo!!
