Calendar integrity. I've lost it.

So I was back in the sewing room, deep into Kindle sleeve making when the door from the hallway opens and I hear the deep, loud, Bosnian voice of my house cleaner.

WTF???

I stare at her astonished and say "It's Tuesday!" and she says "No, it's Wednesday" and I say "no, it's Tuesday" and we go on like that for a long time. She finally convinced me but it was not easy. I don't think I have ever been as off on my days as this morning. Every single thing pointed to Wednesday and yet, in my heart of hearts and brain of brains I knew it was Tuesday.

It was really funny. And I was not house cleaner ready. The kitchen was a mess. I had a giant piece of fabric spread out on the counter. I hadn't even hung up my swimsuit yet. Nor had I gathered the rest of the stuff to take to Goodwill or even thought about what other things I wanted to do while I was out.

But, she got to work and I got myself together and hit the road. I went to Goodwill and Uwajimaya and Daiso (where I got Zoey her Christmas outfit).



But, now the house is clean and all is fine. I made a nice little bagette for kindle and even added a little pocket on the outside for the folding stand I like to carry with me.

Then I spent some quality time with a ruler and paper and pencil, planning out the coat. I have the perfect piece of fabric to use for the test build. Tomorrow.

I think I'm going to pull out my knitting and fire up Series 3 of Line of Fire.

If it makes you feel better I was on Team Tuesday for about halfway through reading this post. I had to think really hard about it to remember that your house cleaner was right. It is Wednesday. Even worse, I did all my Wednesday things today too, so how could I forget?

It was a very Tuesday-esque Wednesday today, I must admit.

I had something like that last weekend. I went with my mom to listen to a concert in a church and I continued to urge her on to get ready as soon as possible as we would not be able to find parking spaces. She continued to tell me it would not be a problem, and it was true, there were enough places - because it was Sunday and I was totally sure it were Saturday with the shops open and people all over the place. Instead, it was nice and calm but I was kind of shocked about my error!

Adorable kitty.

Zoey looks every bit as pleased with her Christmas outfit as I would expect her to be.

(Which is to say, not especially.)

Our old-fashioned household still gets a daily newspaper (as in, ink on paper) delivered. Apart from the fact that I like reading it at the breakfast table, it's helpful in reminding us what day of the week it is.

Zoey looks very pleased.

I'm laughing about the week day mix up. It has been a strange little while...
