Comments— Very smooth going this week. It is easy to maintain a project when you are not leaving the house. It is all clock work. I get dressed in the morning. Tripp takes my photo every afternoon, and then I post it on Instagram the next day. I know that I should actually be posting it on the day, but I like to think of it as Alaskan lag time. Back in the day, newsreels were delivered overnight to Alaska by plane and then broadcast the day after. I’m kind of doing the same thing. But the only people who know this are the half a dozen people reading this document. It is our little secret.

COMMENTS
The wild sunshine is making photography difficult. I have had that Lady Skater dress in my closet the whole time, but I am never compelled to wear it. I am not sure why. I made three new garments this week. A knit tunic and tights out of Chalk Line Knit from Marcy Tilton. I also finished another modified Rebecca Taylor t-shirt top out of a great multi-colored print knit. I am trying very hard not to get even a DAY behind in documenting this shit.

COMMENTS
I am surprised in some ways by how long it took me to finally catch up on the documentation of this project. If I had my way, I would sew and sew and sew clothes. Lately, I like to make a new piece and then sew pieces that work with the new piece, so that a complete outfit evolves from the first decision. For example, I make a tunic and then I make the tights to go with it, and they both work with the new scarf I just finished. This is different from the beginning when I was really making things because I did not have them. For example I needed to make pants. Now, I have pants so I can be more creative in my making decisions.

COMMENTS
I am almost caught up! That is the one and only thing I think I have to say. When I started this project I thought the most difficult thing would be finding attractive clothing combinations. I was WRONG. The most difficult thing is keeping up on the documentation. I question why I am doing this, but then I read a story today about a fellow who ran the Appalachian Trail, and I decided what the heck. Sometimes we just do things because we are compelled to do them. There is not necessarily a final result that means anything beyond WE DID IT. And so I am doing it.

COMMENTS
It is painful to think that this is the first full week of documentation. For the few of you out there that are actually following along with this project. My intent is to create a stop motion style movie where I turn around in a circle for everyday. Now that the location is solid, you will also be able to see a complete rotation of the earth around the sun as documented by the changing background. It is going to very cool if it works.
