Bad crafting luck

[wiseheart]

I wanted to do the other half of the Velcro job today, so that the match-the-colour page would be out of my hair. Yet after two pieces my fingers hurt so much that I had to stop. So I decided to work a bit on the seaming of two already finished pages that I had stitched together a week or so ago. Unfortunately, I pinned down the seam the wrong way - and my English truly isn't good enough to explain what the problem was, I'm sorry - so I had to undo the one measly side that I managed to seam in its entirety.

At that point I gave up. It is too hot for so much stress, and weather forecast promises temperatures up to 37 degrees next week. Just what we need on a cleaning day, isn't it?

There is no Hitzefrei for cleaning days? :(

Our cleaning lady has a firmly established schedule as she works for many different places and individuals. She comes every other Monday. We do the small cleaning jobs in-between, but neither of us can climb any higher than the third step of a ladder, for example, or move heavy furniture alone, so we need help.
