Timing was perfect

 I did not know my crabbing day (10/15) was actually National Grouch Day!!  Who knew?

The reason I have not pushed my "disappointment" issues is because these designers are all reputable, well liked, honest, and busy.  I received the corrected chart and legend, just not in the format of the purchase and preference.  The linen still baffles me.  I loved the color, but that big of a discrepancy should have been offered a partial refund.  It's not the money, but the courtesy.  And that's something you can't demand.

My friend decorated cakes and knows that quite a few are baked and then frozen for customers that call with same day orders.  Possible that this flavor was in the freezer for a while, and I plan to ask if it was baked that day, for future reference.  From the looks of the entire cake, this was a new employee.  

The leather form did not work out as well as expected, but I have measurements now and plan to fill the leather sheath with tight batting.  These are trouser socks and a wide calf size of different material would not be as constricting.  She loved the idea of wearing a knee sock and also the wild stump socks.  A trip home for the afternoon is coming this Thursday, by transit, in the motorized chair belonging to the facility.  Hers was ordered six months ago, no sight of it.

Continuing to crab.... I am tired of seeing the massive lights outside shops and stores that are on in full sunlight. Put the light sensors lower on the pole so they can be changed when needed, and cleaned.  All that dirt and dust on them creates a false sense of darkness.  And Instagram .... what the hell did you do?  I see a few new posts and then nothing but "suggested" that I cannot turn off (laptop), and you moved my toolbar to the side.  Stop it.  There's something else, but I can't remember, so I'll crab about failing memory.






Be safe!  Enjoy the day.  Even if it is cold and messy with wet leaves everywhere.

Hi Marly: I like the sock design so hip, I am happy Carole likes the design.
Sometimes we are handed lemons and make the best lemonade of the day out of them, you are able to do so me not so much.
I had an issue with a shop on amazon, the order only came partial waited three weeks finally contacted amazon they were wonderful gave me a full refund, I am thankful.
I hope to see your dog on the design soon, i am such a big dog lover but I do love my Blondie the Cat so much, we cuddle several times a day even if it's for a minute (she has an attitude)

Have a lovely Sunday

Happy to hear that Carole liked the sock you bought for her.
For how long will she stay at home on Thursday?
Take care and wish you can stitch your doggy soon on the sampler.
It's raining here and a lot f leven on the ground, Truus from Holland

Bummer on the leather form not being quite right, but having measurements will be huge help in re-working it. Good that Carole liked the sock idea too. Her trip home will be interesting, I hope it doesn't add to the list of changes she's expecting you and Mark to handle (even time/effort if not cost) in order for her to move home. Six months and her chair hasn't come yet? Will her permanent return home wait until it arrives? Or will she be discharged and have to rent one until it does?

It seems people think how much less LED lights cost to run and then use more of them and leave them on longer so they are not the savers they could be.

I had no idea it was National Grouch Day. I'm sure I could have made excellent use of it.

You might know this already but thought I’d share. On IG if you go to the upper left Instagram word click on the dots next to it and then click Followed. Less ads.
