Errand day ! I promised my
Health Check rep that I’d send back the stopped-working and the never-worked
Cardio Commander units today – the VA’d already been kind enough to send me UPS
shipping stickers and even packing tape, so I had no excuse. Packed ‘em up
according to instructions, and while I could have scheduled a pick-up, the UPS
Store wasn’t far from where I needed to go anyway, so…
I had two returns to take
care of, one to Lowe’s with a receipt, one to Home Depot, and a bank deposit to
make. Both Customer Service folks were just wonderful, and took care of me
perfectly. (grin) And we can kind of use the cash ! Glad to have the CCommander
clutter out from underfoot, and the returns done.
The apple pancake recipe
went OK, but no matter what I could have done to it, it still would have tasted
like hot applesauce. I may make it again later. It’s much easier to get
creative in the kitchen when it’s clean. Made chili mac out of leftovers from
last night’s dinner – yum !
After dinner, I got to sew.
Version two of the ‘Dollar Elsa Dress’ – fit is a bit better, but I want to
work on the bodice a little more. Even with the seam down the middle (not in
the original design) it’s still a bit too wide for the doll, and I put in a
dart to cinch up the sides a bit. We’re getting closer !
This is one of the Jo-Ann’s
fabrics, a half-off half-yard. Still have over ¾ of it, and ironically, the
whole fabric cut was a dollar ! I think version 3 is gonna be just the bodice,
and a separate skirt or pants. Gets boring making the same thing over and over.
But doesn’t Merri look great
?
