Feeling Naked ~

Well the Fitbit worked for about 24 hours flawlessly.  Now it's dead.  Totally kaput :(  I have relied on it for the last 10 1/2 months.  My wrist feels totally naked.  The silver lining is that their customer support is excellent.  Though they are clearly located in another country (far, far away), the two CSRs I spoke with had a great command of the English language and both calls were answered with no hold time.  Thankfully I had 6 weeks left on my warranty (not the way my luck usually runs) so I was given two options.  They would send me the same tracker free or I could purchase a different model at 50% off.  I opted for a new one since the warranty on a replacement would end with my original purchase date, whereas a new one would have a new warranty.  It should arrive by the end of next week. 

 

I've a new pattern on the frame, Lancaster Barnyard by Notforgotten Farm.  I couldn't resist the sale Lori had a couple weeks ago.  I have more patterns than I can possibly hook/punch/applique/cross stitch in 3 lifetimes if I never buy another.  I'm sure I'm not alone :)

 

After many years of putting it off, my house is being sided.  It has had a snowball effect.  I figured since I was siding, I should get a new roof first.  Now that the siding is partially completed, I decided I need new gutters and new soffits.  I might as well get it all done and not have to deal with it again in my lifetime.  Oh, then I need new storm doors, light fixtures and a mailbox.  Cha ching!!!  Now the big decision is do I want barn red shutters and a grey door or vice versa.  I need to decided SOON since I am painting the shutters.  My poor landscaping.  I knew it would be trampled and it has been :(  I'm guessing the perennials will survive and come back next year ~ fingers crossed.

 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Pug hugs :)
