Cobbling

I FIXED MY SHOE.. (I hope/think).

It’s been an impressive last few days… the recent/short end of which I attended my office’s crab feast Friday afternoon party.. felt lucky I could eat the crab, and then got sick, suddenly (it wasn’t the crab. it wasn’t the patrone either), and on my way outside I broke my shoe (a favorite, irreplaceable), and later when I was home, I somehow sat wrong on the dining room chair and broke the button the right back pocket on the seat of my jeans (also a favorite). Didn’t feel well (or lucky) enough to go out again that eve to have dinner and play with friends, some of whom are leaving town soon.. and didn’t make it out today, either, to Antioch event in DC that I’d actually purposely stayed in town this weekend for..
Also, I’ve been very buried in email and other communication forms, both online and tele.. Since my printer is out of ink in one of the cartridges, it won’t even let me scan stuff (though scanning has nothing to do with ink), and neither Office Depot nor Staples carries the ink in stock.. A couple other things to rant on, but there always are, neh?

But I have pudding (Swissmiss and Jello brands — Swissmiss is better)),jello, two types of vanilla ice cream and one chocolate (Edys), rice and shrimp porridge, strawberry shortcake.. so I’m not starving to death.. I have my very good book that I’d like to read more of.. and there’s beautiful weather outside my window, even if I’m not playing in it.. and my friends and family are well, even if I’m not surrounded by them at moment…
And after much sewing and continuing hoping, I have fixed my shoe.

Not too shabby.
