I declare victory

wiseheart... on the crafting front, at least. I've actually mastered the over-complicated Card #29! Here it is:
The two little bells are actually made with silver thread, no idea why it looks simply white in the picture, but that's smartphone cameras for you.
I had less luck in my battle against Telekom that has just doubled my monthly fee. When I called them to ask what the f*ck was going on, they told me I used to have a 50% lowering in the price that has just run out. Needless to say they did not warn me that the price will go up after a certain amount of time, but there's nothing I can do about it.
It's not so that I can't afford the price. It's just the fact that the sneaky bastards never told me the truth about it! *insert swear words of your choice*
Another unpleasant fact is that I had to throw out the remaining mini pizzas from Saturday's party. They might have been still OK, but they were with tuna and mushroom toppings, respectively, so we didn't dare to eat them another day. I couldn't eat anything but toast and boiled potatoes for days, a lot of them was left over, but the last thing we wanted was Mum getting an upset stomach from them, too. (Mine might have come from praline filling that was over its best before date, but that's another question entirely.)
Other than that it was a quiet day. I did some writing - yay, inspiration! - Mum volunteered to cook, and we watched some telly. That about sums it up.
