ID, necklace, house news, DIC
Sometimes it's helpful to have whilst banking or purchasing libations. I went down into town today to do some chores & pick up a few things, including a little vino and you know I got carded. No worries--I always have my documents with me--I opened my wallet and realized my license was in my motorcycle vest pocket, which I almost wore, but did not as it looked like serious rain threatening and so I drove instead. (I did check that my wallet was in the purse, like, four times. I just did not look INSIDE the wallet). Urk. I was so embarrased--I actually explained to her where my ID was--and she said "oh, well, you're 21, right?" I blurted out that I was actually 52 only garnering even more stares from everyone around me. And actually I'm only 51. It's gotta be the nose ring. Or eyebrow ring. Or just my youthful demeanor.
Picked up a little table lamp for beading anytime other than noon--I just can't see at all in dim light any, more, esp. tiny little things like beads. My 3rd necklace is almost done, got held up waiting for parts. It's a beauty. I'll post a pic. Having a tad bit of trouble finishing off the ends--it's 3 strands & I'm not quite sure how that's handled. I do have cones for each end--but may end up re-stringing the thing as I've gotten a bit short of extra wire on one end...we'll see if I can't jury-rig something. My first crimps went in place as planned, though.
Not much house news but a new (hopefully OUR new) lending institution contacted me today. It'll be a bit longer before we find out just which sort of deal we're working and then we may have to wait for Leonardo to get home for paperwork and such. So it may be this week but it's gotta be by the 24th! At least that's what the papers say. But they can lie too as we're finding out.
I got a good (I hope!) picture of a dog on a, uh, motorized vehicle--I wasn't fast enough for the one of a dog actually riding outside, on top of a pickup cab! No lie. This is New Mexico. Will send that one along to Dog in Car when I download photos next.
