DWTS Season 23: Week 11 night 2

-
We've reached the end of the journey once more.
 
Cute opening. Saw some faces I forgot were on this season.

Haha. They turned a golf cart into a sleigh.

James. I didn't feel like that performance was as good as the original. He looked tired.

That was a fast dance to Andy's song. Alison looked like her feet were going to slip out from under her during some of those spins.

Calvin. Still a weird song choice for a Argentine tango.

Maureen. She still walked through that. And what was the point of Ryan and Babyface?

I love dress rehearsals. So funny.

Maks! And samba! Sexy dancing skittles. Haha.

Laurie. So glad they picked this one. Loved the switch up at the end from the original. Bad hair clip. Bad number. But funny.

Vanilla ice really doesn't do ballroom well. Why was Rick Perry his DJ?

Very pretty foxtrot and loved the green dress. Babyface, please stick to singing.

And Rick Perry can play the drums?

Ooh hot men. Thankfully Ryan stayed on the table.

Jana. She still good. The water probably is not helping Gleb's flu.

Terra and Marilu. Cute number. Not much dancing...

Loved the nutcracker/ swing number.

I love pro numbers.

Time for the fusion dances.

James. Pretty. They kept it simple. I agree with the scores.

Calvin. Footwork was sloppy at times. It didn't seem to have quite the energy he usually does. High for me but I'm not surprised. Unless it's really bad they don't give out anything else during this round.

Laurie. Yay. Interesting that she got the fusion that she could do lifts with. I agree with the scores.

And the cameraman fell.

In third place is Calvin. I agree with the placement.

And the winners are Laurie and Val. Yay! My pick won. 

See you next season.

Eclectic update and more stash

Another busy week coupled with the fact that I spent the majority of my free time over the weekend working on my dress caused me not to have that much done on insanity. I did however manage to finish my three pumpkins this week (and had a full ball left over) and also started the snowman tonight as my brain was too tired to deal with insanity. Although I haven't managed to work on certain projects as I would like, I got more stash. I had to go to joann's to pick up thread for my dress last week. While there, I have a tendency to rummange through the other departments to see if anything catches my eye. Although the cross-stitch section isn't all that great, I did find the following: Sebastian and Sebastian rose by Design Works. I was tempted by two other designs featuring a white cat and a leopard purse and one with a leopard shoe, but I prefered these for some reason, maybe Onyx had an influence. They came as a pack. While looking for the pictures

And the dress is done.

I promised pictures and I have them. Two at least. I'll eventually get action shots but for now you can imagine what happens when I spin. I do have long gauntlets/gloves that I wear with the dress but I forgot to put them on before taking the pictures. I had a long day at the competition, started at 10:30am didn't finish until probably 10:30pm. 61 dances, smooth and latin. Placed top 3 in all except one where I placed 4th. I'm not usually that tan and it still hasn't completely come off. And the white part of my french manicure is now a bit brown as well. I completely forgot to pick up the DVD I had asked to be taped and now will have to figure out how to get a hold of it. Overall I managed to win $600. Not anywhere near enough to cover the costs but more than I've won previously and should give my credit card a nice relief for next month. I had mentioned due to preparation for the competition, I wouldn't have much time for stitching. I was correct. Not

DWTS season 16: week 8

Next week is the semi-finals. Eek! Zendaya. A happy foxtrot. Odd music, but it worked. Smooth and graceful. I'll agree with the scores but depending on the rest of the night they could be higher. Sean. He looked like he was thinking too much. His posture was leaning towards Peta and his butt was sticking out. I guess I'll agree with the scores. Jacoby. I felt as if he could have stood up straighter. His footwork looked a bit odd at times. Ingo. It wasn't bad, but he could've been smoother in the footwork. He stepped back instead of gliding. I guess I'll give them the scores. Kellie. Why was she in place so much at the beginning? Then when they finally start to dance, I couldn't see her feet because of the fog. It was pretty. Scores are a little high for me. Aly. Something was missing but I can't figure out what. I didn't think it wast the best of the round. Trio dances. One of the newer sections they I really like. Zendaya. Thank you for
