Sunday

No paper today, dammit. When I called the "didn't get my paper" number, the recording said that "because of production problems, your paper will be two to three hours late."  But it wasn't--it was twenty-four hours late; didn't come until this morning.

Nothing much else new and exciting except that I put in a bleach wash when I got home. Yowsah! Today, I want to go the cleaners/seamstress and get back the skirt I had left. I found the other one and will try it with the rest of the Dudley House costume. If it looks reasonably suitable for the eighteen-nineties, I'll wear that. Otherwise, I'll go thrifting again and will donate the ruffled one to Dudley House.
