Subject: Re: Wednesday Chat the 16 of November...... by teebee on 2016/11/17 4:16:42 Hey guys....I started early again today, not because I had lots to do (which I did), but because the south wind was supposed to come up and blow (which it did) and it would affect my spraying. I finished all the spraying by 10, and worked on a wedding present for Rosie's niece. I had thought that it would be the first project I did with the new router. But a phone call to the electronic component repair place yesterday, revealed that the parts were on a sloooooow boat from China and weren't in yet. So, in order to be assured that the quilt rack would be complete (by Dec 3rd) I decided that I had better cut them out at school. I also figured that since I was going to be down there running that, I may as well, do another little sign for #1 daughter, as a Christmas present for hubby (SIL). I had two computer calls thrown in there too. After cutting the pieces out, this afternoon, I went ahead and completed the assembly of the quilt rack. In the late afternoon the phone rings and when I answer it was a lady (well to do family in the area) from here in town who, let's say to make it short and sweet, hasn't said five words to me in 22 years, because 22 years ago I did something that offended her (I got an earring) and she went on a rampage to the school board, trying to get me fired. Let's say I was coaching her son (I was the assistant cross country coach and did this for this one season, one time) and she thought I was perverting him by wearing the earring. It was a very trying time for me. So, anyway, I was shocked that she called me to come look at her kitchen cabinet after the appliance repair guy screwed it up. I went over and did the best I could to fix the issue and she was very happy with my work, even to the point of finding a couple other little jobs for me to complete. Maybe she got over her distaste for me. I loaded the pickup of all the doors and everything I'll need to do the spraying of the cabinets tomorrow. I'll take off early so I can get the spraying done as early as possible. I'm racing the cold weather that is expected to move through here late tomorrow. |
