Got the check (with apologies from boss) for new meds. Got paycheck a day early (yay!). Gotta go to the bank and CVS tonight before heading to mom's.
Finishing neckline of new cotte for me (Does it reek of fags? Why yes it does. Does the bag holding it reek of fags? Yes it does. Do my hands reek of fags after sewing it? Yes they do), and have only to attach the second sleeve, stitch down armsceye lining thereof, hem said sleeves, and do lacing holes. OK, I am lying. I'm updating here instead of sewing.
Called MDs office, called them idiots on the inside, asked why they sent a bill here instead of the insurance co. Spoke slowly and clearly to the receptionist, and was polite.
Finished hubby's cottes last night, have only buttons & buttonholes, and some tucking stitches at the collar linings.
Fit braies on hubby last night, the way he is proportioned that boy needs gussets cut separately, because the scrap from the leg shapes is inadequate to make gussets with any real personality. I should have that problem!!
He found his medallion, exactly where I suggested, and then had to explain that no I did NOT put it there but since I know what the packing situation was like, it seemed only logical....
Still have to make his dratted St. Louis undershirts, and cut out more braies. HOWEVER, they are all straight lines, and frankly that boy is capable, so will see if he can't make his OWN damn underwear. He offered to cut out the rest of them, but I wasn't shifting gears last night at that point.
Taught him to whipstitch last night, and he sewed the hem to his cloak all by himself, learned knots and everythig. Quite pleased and proud of him. As well as glad to have something else crossed off the list...
Liquor store. Beer distributor. Laundry. Serious packing. Cooking. All still to do, but knowing that the majority of the sewing is DONE gives me a tremendous feeling of relief.
Fuck I am tired. I hope to be able to sleep on the ride out there.
*thud*
