Where the deer and the antelope.. TITONKA!

I started back on My Fitness Pal yesterday along with Meri. Not sure if Maddy still uses it or not.  But in 1 day, I dropped that elusive pound and now (again) I'm within 2 pounds of what I weighed at Maddy's wedding!
  
If I can stay away from chips and salsa, I might make this work!

I haven't been this light since probably last summer and I STILL couldn't get down to the wedding weight even then.  

Oh!  Speaking of yard work, it's been chill and rainy the last couple days, so nothing for me to do outside.  I did take a bit yesterday and drop off two tires of my mower off at a farm and fleet type place.  $22 per new tire and one hour later...  Why didn't I do this sooner!?

While I was waiting for them, my nephew texted me.  YEAH!  I NEVER get a text from him!  But he texted and asked if I was willing to make face masks for his co-workers at an awesome pizza joint he works at in college town.  Um yeah...  I could just imagine what the payment would be.  

I'll have those pizzas in oat crust please...
It's my fave!

and I was right.  I'm getting paid in pizza certificates!

So while I was waiting for the tires, I bopped into JoAnn Fabrics to see if I could find something appropriate.  He gave me the guidelines of greys (boring...) or something with Buffalos.  

Yeah - I'm going with the Buffalo theme.  

I found the fabric below.  It had bears, antelope, deer and of course buffalo.  woohoo!
After fussy cutting the top of the masks out, the backs are just in brown.  I've got sideways buffalo with a hint of bear, a full on buffalo with the horns of a ram, it's all very buffalo.  


I sewed on them last night and got a good portion of them to the inside out part.  Twelve in all.  I hope to get them all done by tomorrow.

And wouldn't you just know it?!  The remaining foldover elastic that I have is brown and I have 5 yards of it...  PERFECT...

My evening is planned...

Very creative and good for you on the weight loss. I need to pick up my pace again-stalled since last week.

Food is always good payment. Those are cute.
