Cheese

Yesterday, at Trader Joes, I forgot 3 things I wanted. I made a list. I went back today. I got 4 things. I forgot... cheese. Yes, it was on the list. Nope. I did not check the list. Fork me.

I also went back to Trader Joes (besides the fact that it's just across the street from the gym and so, easy) because yesterday Capital One sent me an email confirming that I had removed both credit cards from Google Pay. I did not. But, Capital One and Google Pay have long been friendamies so I was pretty sure it was a Capital One prank. Trader Joes has pay by phone so I also wanted to test. Worked fine. Account reflects exactly what it should. Capital One is just being childish. Again.

When I was 16 and had had my driver's license about 10 minutes, I crashed the car into a tree. Between the time I knew the crash would happen and it was too late to stop it, and the time I hit, I distinctly remember hoping against hope that I'd be injured so my parents would go to 'oh, you poor thing' instead of 'oh, you idiot'. I was not injured in any way.

Last night I dreamed that a cop caught me driving distracted (not phone but still) and nearly hitting a pedestrian and another car. I was so guilty that I pulled over almost before he put his sirens on. And immediately started tallying up what the fine was going to cost me and where the funds were going to come from and how that would affect my budget.

But, before he got to my car, I woke up! Now, that's the way to do it. With old age, finally I'm getting some answers. Whew.

Today is tv/crochet and miniature house building.

The first room I did was by Robotime which produces lots of different miniature room kits. The one I'm doing now is a CuteBee kit and I like it so much better. The instructions are easier to understand and the stuff provided just seems better. And I still have no intended purpose or even any place to put the finished product which would be ok if this would be the only one. But, it's not. I'm sure.

I got a lot of TiVo clean up done. There is still some to watch but I think I'm doing Acorn TV today. I miss my buds across the pond. I do have a hard time flipping between American TV and Other English Speaking (Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand) TV. The pace is so different and often the mores as well. Flipping back and forth is just jarring. Happily I have plenty of both to watch. Plus Netflix and Prime. No need to ever again watch something that doesn't spark joy. I'm Marie Kondoing my TV time.

Time now to get to work!

I was telling the women at my gym about your miniature room kit. I'm really tempted to give it a go but I don't know if I have the patience

A sewing room sounds fun!
I hope it won't be too difficult and I ruin it. Is there any extra equipment you think I should have before I start?

Thanks. I should have most of those things, might have to sort some glue as I think I've only got PVA in stock

When my husband Roy was alive, he built dollhouses. He did not finish the interiors. They were works of art. Then he donated them to different charities for them to auction off.
