On Finishing A Project . . .
|
Those little dresses were so, so adorable! I couldn't keep from working on them, and so I finished the sleeve insertion at an earlier-than-expected time. Of course, I hadn't time to work on them Saturday, what with cleaning my room and cleaning the bathrooms and grocery shopping and being sad that my sleepover was cancelled. So I worked on them Monday morning. And by Monday at noon, they were all finished. I was glad that they were done, but I was rather disappointed that I didn't have more little clothes to work on. (I love little clothes!)
I called Danielle to let her know they were done. She said she'd be right down to get them.
This time, keeping her longer than she expected to stay was not my fault. It was the fault of that insurance salesman. Honest, I showed her the dresses and she was ready to go, when I looked out the back and saw through the office window a strange man in a red shirt, a black suit and a ponytail. I said, "Who is that guy?"
Mom thought that perhaps the house inspector from the addition licensing office had come a day early, but I said, "No, he doesn't look like one of the guys down there."
Mom went out to investigate. He was trying to sell my dad insurance. It's like offering water to a drowning man, I mean really! But he had been next door and sold a policy to our neighbor, when he saw my dad outside working on the house, spotted his opportunity and came over. And I thought door-to-door salesmen were extinct. :)
So anyway, we couldn't let Dani go outside with that guy out there. He might follow her home and try to sell her some insurance too. She sat down and we offered her tea. We relived last Friday. It seems to me we covered the same exact topics in a lot less time. :)
I can't wait to see you at the shower, Dani. Then after your life settles down, we'll have to have a crochet lesson, hmm? |

Sure was great to visit with you too! I'm looking forward to that crochet lesson. :) Hey- salesmen are just a good excuse for a visit. . . one we couldn't help but have. :) See you soon.

| The ShugaBowl |
| Sounds like some kind of sports thing, but in reality, the ShugaBowl is just a little hideaway for me, Sugarcube herself, to let loose my thoughts and occasional creativeness. |
