RETIRED!

 I'm NOT going to cry..........I'm NOT going to cry.........I'm NOT going to cry!

Today is Dear Hubby's last day at work.  He's been with she Sheriff's Office for 31.5 years.  Starting out as a Corrections officer, then Corporal.  He continued his training and became a Deputy then Sergeant.  He worked as a Environmental Deputy, Investigator/Detective then worked undercover in the Drug Unit. Dear Hubby went to College while working full time and graduated on the Dean's List with both an AA and Bachelor's degree.  He was promoted to Lieutenant then Captain.   

Last Official Picture

He's passing his legacy onto our oldest son.  Boy T. is following in his Dad's footsteps.

 I'm NOT going to cry..........I'm NOT going to cry.........I'm NOT going to cry!

Sewing has slowed down.  Hunting season has started.  Retirement has begun.  

 I'm NOT going to cry..........I'm NOT going to cry.........I'm NOT going to cry!

Ok, I'm crying!

Until next time..................

Pattern Emporium True Romance Red Jersey Top with Animal Print Skirt

 I sewed another Pattern Emporium True Romance Top from a red jersey fabric from my stash.  I don't have a solid red top in my closet and this filled that spot.  I think I can dress it up for the holidays or dress it down for a more casual look.

I also made a quick half circle skirt with a yoga waistband from a piece of animal print ITY knit that has been in my stash for a while.  Both fabrics were purchased at Fabric Mart Fabrics online.

The weather here in Florida has still been hot so I'm not sure when I'll be able to wear this outfit.  Maybe to an ice rink?  We would love to have Fall weather soon.

Until next time.............
