There. I’m done! I suspect this won’t be the last time she asks me to do a sewing job/alteration, but hopefully, it will be the last time I have to work on slick fabric!

I need to make some copies, but I want to sit here for a bit and warm up a little with the space heater. I’m so tired of being cold!

The TV company that I loathe sent us all notices that after March 1st, there would be no more TV service furnished by that company unless we opted to buy it from them directly. I’m not happy about the company, because I got two letters indicating that someone other than me attempted to log into my account. No, it was only me. But wait:

I have a phone with a Nevada area code, and if I should need to call 911, the call would go to NV first, before any help could be sent here, so don’t I think I should have a land line? A landline with the TV and interwebs would only cost me $109 a month. And I wouldn’t want to call 911 and wait an hour, would I?

I hung up from that phone encounter thinking what a nasty company that is to try and scare old women into buying something they don’t need and don’t want. Not to mention the block they put on the TV that prevents streaming from other sources. That cinched it. I will find another company for both the TV and the interwebs.

I think I need a diversion, like retail therapy. Only there is no medium to make that happen, so I’ll stay home.

You could Google some cruises to exotic destinations where you don’t really want to go anyway.

Congrats on finishing the slip. I agree about trying to sew slick fabrics. I made First Communion veils for my girls, and sewing chiffon is the worst.

Speaking of shopping, Asuncion is working on your jewelry. She sent me some in-progress snaps yesterday. It’s going to be lovely.
