Once again, here I am talking about my adventures in not sleeping!...*shaking my head*...I know! I know! You're sick of hearing about it...almost as much as I'm sick of myself talking about it!! LOL But considering that all of my activities lately are being done with me in an exhausted state, I thought I should tell you about it...to explain why I sound kinda nutty and scatter-brained sometimes! ^_^
So...what have I been doing while half awake this time?!...Tweaking the groom's boutonniere on the custom wedding order that I'm making...As I told you yesterday, my customer loves the groomsmen's boutonnieres...
But the boutonniere for the groom is causing some challenges. The reason is because he wanted his boutonniere made with two different colors than the groomsmen...'Passion' purple and 'Iris', which is a kind of purple/violet/blue...
Those two colors would have looked great together too!....if I could find the 'iris' shade in a thread....which I can't find.....ANYWHERE! Ugh!
So, it's been a back and forth about other colors. He wanted to try a dark purple with the 'passion'...
Nice....but no 'Umph!'...besides which, the dark purple doesn't fit the wedding color scheme...He wondered how silver would look.....Then we moved on!
Then he mentioned that they will be wearing gray suits. So he thought that maybe gray would work with the passion. :-) Yeah!...But what shade of gray?!...
Dark gray or light gray?! O_O
And what button?....This one?...
Or a smaller one?....Maybe this one?...
As of in the middle of the night....like around 1 or 2 a.m. ...it was decided!...I'm gonna do three colors! :-) Both shades of gray and the passion purple!...I'll show it to you tomorrow...
Stream of consciousness: I just got a phone call... ;_; ...spending any more time on this post seems kinda frivolous right now. :-( Sorry y'all. If I can pull myself together, I'll tell you about it later. ;_; I'm so sad right now.
Let Go
Ever against the tide we row,
fighting our-self, with bent elbow.
(Releasing feelings, tucked inside,
hidden because of foolish pride.)
Fighting just to stay the course.
Using every ounce of force.
(Dreaded emotions pushing through,
trying to get the best of you.)
Waves of feelings swirling round.
Fighting hard to keep them down.
(They're seeping out on every curve.
Letting them-takes lots of nerve.)
Open quick, your tight-clenched palm.
Feel the water's quiet calm.
(Released emotions-held too long,
now are righting every wrong.)
