Dare we hope?
Aug. 4th, 2022 05:23 pmApparently, the work on the water pipes is finished. I'm still not sure I believe it, but it sounds good.
I did a bit of crafting today, applying various sequins to the Three Kings felts: star, heart and flower shaped ones. All shinies are now firmly sewn on. I'm planning to work on the hangings next, and to stitch the front and back panels together. Then come the faces, which will be simply made with felt pen, and perhaps some minor decoration, and the project will be done.
I also started ordering my freshly bought sequins by colour. It is fussy work and will last days; weeks perhaps. But it's again something I can do in front of the telly, so, the time won't be entirely wasted.
The good news is that I've finished the epilogue of "The Old Terror". Granted, the two penultimate chapters are still half-done at best, but considering my record with writing lately, I see that as a major victory.
Otherwise, it was a quiet day. We ate leftover Tütensuppe and Wiener Würstchen with Petersilkartoffeln and a mixed salad. Then I talked to our conductor on the phone, which was nice. Tomorrow will have a lengthy food run again, as Aldi has eggs on sale, and I hope to be able to buy some slippers there, too, both for Mum and for myself. We'll see.
