Crafts and Repairs

The Card Making class was on today's agenda for me.  We got to select the package we would work with.  There were items in the baggie to make 2 cards with envelopes.  And then we got to select from probably a 1,000 different items already punched, cut out, stamped, etc. to use to complete our design.  There was glitter, colored pencils, pens, tape, glue, extra paper, sayings, punches, stamps - all expertly organized and arranged.  My workroom at home should be so ready.

This is what was in the baggie I selected

Ron's agenda was not as much fun.  The agenda for Ron was to make more repairs to the MG.  The driver's window jumped off its trolley.  Ron had to remove the door panel in order to fix it.  He's had to fix it before.  He installed the new thermostat, test drove the car, didn't like the results, punched a hole in the bottom of the just removed thermostat and reinstalled it, test drove the car, same results.  Then he fixed the engine fan switch, test drove the car.  Some other mechanics couldn't figure it out either.  Oh well, will have to just watch the gauge on the way home.

Otherwise it was another easy day and muggy - got up to at least 95 degrees.  There was a cool breeze on the big front porch that we enjoyed while we rocked in the rocking chairs and chatted with friends.
