Yesterday was sunny and warm with a small shower. The high got to 23 (humidex 26C). This morning it is cloudy and 15C. Today is supposed to be a mix of sun and clouds with a high of 21C.
Lifestyle
Yesterday morning was more productive though I was tired. I got the bathroom cleaned. I even mopped the floor. It was dusty in that room. Once it was done, folded laundry and have most of it put away.
I am having an issue with Rosie the vacuum robot. She doesn't go back into her charging station properly. Yesterday I caught it right away and gave her a push and in she went. I am not sure if the pad she sits on has moved some and she can't align with the charger properly.
I was looking for something on the internet after I finished my to do list and came across a site that made me angry. People were criticizing some YouTubers. The comments were upsetting and after reading a few, I had to close the tab. If you don't like a YouTuber, then don't watch it. I have done that and each one I stop watching has been for different reason.
Daughter-in-law and I went to see Downton Abbey last night. It was "cheap ticket Tuesday". We really enjoyed the show. The costumes were spectacular and the acting was great. How the story line progressed showed that this is the last of Downton Abbey as we knew it. The ending was perfect with the movie being dedicated to Dame Maggie Smith.
Sewing
I did sew yesterday. I sewed the ties for the dress. It was quite the job turning them right side out using a bobby pin. I finally figured it out after many attempts. They were pressed and pinned to the bodice side fronts. I then finished sewing the bodice together and gave it a good press. I was ready to start the skirt.
Sewing tiny pockets on the skirt of the wrap dress was interesting. The pocket pieces are unusual in shape and a puzzle to figure out. I got them done and am happy with how nice they look. I serged the two ends and the hem and sewed them in place.
Once I had done all that, I had a panic attack. How I had vision attaching the skirt put them on the back. The video I was watching didn't help until I saw how the skirt was gathered onto the top. I had forgot it was a wrap dress and, yes, the pockets were in the right place. Once I had that straight in my head I started to gather the skirt onto the bodice.
The other half of the skirt is not gathered as I had to stop and have dinner early as I was going to Downton Abbey.
Knitting
None done as I got home late.
Thoughts
My osteopathy therapist starts back on October 1. I will be reaching out to her to get an appointment before we leave on our holiday but don't expect it will happen. I know I can wait until January to see her. I will try to have 2 physio appointments before we leave.
My SI joint is sore this morning. I know it is from sitting in the theatre seats. I will be applying heat to it and doing some exercises to help it release.
My new fridge will be delivered on Sept. 30. I am eagerly awaiting its arrival so I can use a full size fridge again. It will be nice to have one that I can trust rather than worry if it will work.
Today
I have to go out this morning and deliver some things to a store in town. Once home, I will try to do a few things which could help my SI joint. I want to sew this afternoon and knit tonight. It will be a quieter day for me as I am tired.
Until the next time.....................................................
