Now Playing: traffic and gas going up again
Current Mood : bag fulla sighs
Well, don't I feel guilty. BIL came over this morning, bearing Robe #1 in one hand and a box of Godiva in the other, saying he probably completely forgot to thank me, but he really wanted me to know how much he appreciated all this work I did for him. He completely understood why I objected to some of the changes he wanted, my explanations made sense. And if I could make the second robe, just straight black would be fine. He'd found some buttons he'd like on the front openings, if I had time. Meanwhile, whenever I could get to them was fine, he really loved the first one, and couldn't wait to see the next one.
Well, shoot. If he'd said that Friday, I could have gone a few days without feeling like crap. And angry. (sigh) I haven't even started #2, and with visitors coming over, it wasn't gonna happen this day either. But, heck, I've already made one, and it came out good, I wasn't worried about this one. I'd finally reached the ‘don't care' plateau, and frankly, if BIL didn't like it, it was good - maybe he'd never ask for another !
The nice young lady I'd spoken with about the kittens came over with her fiancée. She couldn't decide which one she wanted ...so she took both ! I made sure to provide her with cat food, a familiar box, and a CD of all the photos I'd taken of them - which weren't many, as I'd been sick for most of their earliest days. She was thrilled, her fiancée was happy she was happy, and they were soon headed for home.
So, while it was a topsy-turvy day, it all ended well. I have Godiva ! Even the ribbon and the raffia daisy box decoration from it is reusable - the daisy already has a pin back to it !
I miss the kittens, though... I'd miss them more if we didn't have DC to keep and Jack - who I think is ours now, that family who wants him hasn't written me back in nearly two weeks.
