Havasu, I'm very relieved to hear you don't have cancer. Diverticulitis is a real bear though. My mother has that. She has to avoid eating small seeds because they get stuck and cause a lot of pain.
Frodo, if you haven't figured out the knot thing, I can ask a couple of my online female friends who sew. My friend in France likes to knit so she might have some ideas. I wish I knew enough about sewing to help, but my sewing skills are very crude.
Awesome bayonet!
yesterday I went to the store for groceries. I think today I will have some raisin bran crunch with sliced banana, strawberry, and some blueberries. I'm trying to snack a little healthier because the past couple of weeks I've had too many of those chocolate chip cookies from Pizza Hut and too many donut holes....
On the bright side, I had a valid excuse to get out of driving my friend's hellbeast gf and her serial-killer-in-training kid to the dentist. I have jury duty- civil trial. I'm hoping they call it off though. They have these steep marble stairs that are a nightmare to climb. They also don't have a ramp for wheelchair access. The only 2 ways into the building are via the tall steep stairs going up or a smaller set of steep stairs going down (reserved only for handicapped people-- only they don't have a ramp for wheelchair access).
I wonder if they will let me bring a pillow for my back. Last time the chairs there were murder on my back-- no lumbar support. #firstworldproblems
