The delightful atmosphere of Panera
We lost our internet connection yesterday, due to switching from MCI which is dropping its dsl service (grrrrr) to ATT/SBC, which hasn't followed through yet on our new dsl service. Our new phone lines shut off the service from MCI and we hoped to have this all fixed momentarily. Hours later, I left our cozy home to get my internet fix here at Panera.
Dave and Popeye were otherwise occupied.
I am using this excuse to add a few errands to my to-do list today.
1. A trip to TJMAXX to celebrate my weight loss. 6 pounds already! What is my secret? Besides no wine? Nothing else that I habitually consume. Including dinner. I am not suffering, believe me. I would complain otherwise. The amazing thing is that I can stay awake in the evening, making my days fuller and my mornings fresher. Who knew? I knit until ten and then crawl in bed with Dave to watch late night stuff. Nothing really great is on, but it is all a novelty to us.
2. A visit with the Cingular people, in person to figure out what service we have signed up for and how to get out of our old plan and into our new one. They sent a letter telling us we couldn't use our old phone, like we ever did... and that we need a new one. What kind of genius runs this company? With our new dsl line I signed up for a package that included our land line in order to get the dsl and that meant that I got a cell phone too. Cheaper than our old plan. I think. I am so confused... Now we have two cell phones and never really use either. I am way outta the cell phone loop. Now I have 5000 weekend and night minutes. What's your number? I'll call you.
3. Post office, grocery, Borders...I have a gift card burning a hole in my pocket.
I guarantee when I return, this cat will be in exactly the same spot...

I love that quilt on the bed... is it made of your hand-dyed fabrics? I'm getting back into dyeing and have been looking back over your dye posts. Love your blog! All your quilts are fab!
ReplyDeleteOh, just seeing that photo makes me want to take a nap and to have a cat! I think I will put it on my desktop for the day. zzzzzzzzzzzzz........
ReplyDeleteYou are so disciplined, I can't stand it!! I lost 15 pounds and I am stuck forever walkign 4 miles a day and eating healthy - I guess this is what my body has in store for me.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with all the phone stuff. I'll e-mail you my cell phone and you can call me at AQT and check up on the sessert du jour! (Which I am going to eat!)
Nap time is very cozy in your house. I share my nap time with 3 dogs and it is very cozy.
ReplyDeleteWhen I met you in class I will give you my cell #. We can talk I never use most of my minutes and I have rollover minutes.
Was the cat in the same place?
I love the photo of Dave and Popeye napping.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is gorgeous.

You look ma-va-lus da-ling! So, let me get this straight --- no wine, no dinner? Nothing after lunch? Really? And you stay up late and are not hungry enough to lick the walls? Inquiring minds want to know.

I always enjoy your blog for the creative stuff. But this photo of Dave and Popeye is so cute(smile)
