NO soliciting!
Mar. 19th, 2016 10:54 amI will vote for Hillary. There is precious little that I can envision that will change that in any way. It's not a vote against anyone else. I like Hillary.
But, her volunteers are working my last nerve. Their phone calls have now forced me to just stop answering the phone. Today it was a woman human robot dialing our front door directory. I had the Front Door TV Network on and saw her down there for a long time looking at the directory. I couldn't tell if she was dialing or just reading the names off and taking notes. Finally, my phone rang and caller ID said it was the front door. She told me she was a Hillary volunteer and wanted to come up here! WTF? NFW. I hung up on her in the middle of her request.
It's a long fucking way til November.
Oh and a while after I hung up on her, she kept dialing and finally someone let her in. She'd better not start knocking on doors. It's one thing to break a city, state or federal law but it's quite another to break a condo law.
Oh now she's back outside, once again dialing up the building. To be perfectly honest was she doing this on behalf of any other candidate or anything else, actually, I'd be raising the complaint flag high and loud. There is no straight line from me to what's good and right.
---------------------
My swim this morning was fabulous. My new watch band let go at 500 yards. I rescued it from the bottom of the pool, along with even both the pins (thankgod for a shallow pool!). Weird because once out, I put the band back on the same way and I cannot shake it, pull it or stress it away from the watch. I can't figure out what motion pulled it loose. So I spent the rest of the swim conjuring on various fixes.
On the up side, I just held on to the watch with my hand which was easy and it tracked my swim flawlessly. Worst case I can wear the bulky band when I swim.
Came home after swim and made a nice breakfast. Today I want to make some tweaks to my brother's website. Little content edits here and there. And then, of course, sewing. The baseball game isn't until tonight.

I'm totally in it for the fabric
Mar. 19th, 2016 02:07 pmSo one night nearly 3 weeks ago, I saw a link to a quilting site and went there. They had a bunch of fabulous scrap and cut bundles. 10" squares and 1/4 yard bundles of amazing, adorable fabrics. I got carried away and ordered a bunch. And they never came. Finally last night, I went to the site to see if/how to raise hell with these people.
Their shipping section said 7-10 business days (which is not at all reasonable anyway). Next Tuesday is 10 days so I made a note on the calendar to call them and never shop there again.
Today, I made one doll and was cutting out the next one and thought, eh... maybe I'll go watch a movie instead. But then my watch told me USPS had just delivered a package and... sure enough... it was the fabric from Slow Shipping Fabric Co.
And it's just amazingly beautiful and so much fun. (When you order bundles you might know genre - kids fabrics, solids, etc. But, when the bundle arrives is the first time you know what kind of patterns you bought.) And now I want to make a million dolls today!!
I'm a cotton whore. No doubt about it.
Yes, that's a cat's butt at the top of the picture.
