Anniversary, and lace.

Today is Erik's and my first anniversary. Ye gods. Hard to believe it's been a year already, but it also feels like it's been forever. *boggles* Ah well. I'm thrilled to have shared a year of my life with him, and plan on spending many, many more. :)

And as for the lace...oy. I just spent the afternoon painstakingly pinning seven yards of lace to the hem of two gored skirts I'm finishing up. My hands are cramped. My fingers are killing me. And I used every single one of my 300+ pins. Let me tell you, that stuff is Evil. Blech blech blech. Very beautiful, but from now on, I think I'll limit my lace-trimmed clothing to ones that I don't have to manufacture. Ick ick blech. *shudders violently*
