Don't worry the clientele will return as there is no, one else. I would like to work on wedding dresses today, but the piles are starting to stack up again. My little person has 8 pairs of pants that need to be done before this weekend, and I have a military uniform and a business suit that are also due out Friday. Plus, I think there are at least 12 pairs of pants and a coat to shorten, before I can get to dresses.
I have found making appointments for brides to return forces me to get things done faster. As in they are coming you had better get your butt in there and finish that dress!
Anything to motivate me. I have continued to turn away work that I just don't want like zippers in coats. Or odd things that would be an irritation.
Just had a client bring me 11 yards of 60 inch wide Pendelton wool, in three different patterns. It is beautiful and she no longer sews. What a gift. Then another client gave me 15 completed quilt blocks that are hand embroidered. They are enough for a queen size quilt. Her hands are too arthritic to put them together. Such lovely gifts, and someday I will have the time to use them. I have to make myself believe that.
I need Sissie so bad.
By the way Kittie 9, Nate 0, the war goes on.

Why not pay bills online. You’d save hours of time! Chy
ReplyDeleteHey two tin cans and a string internet service screws up too often. Will the internet work? Who knows!
DeleteI love Nate’s cat…. Lol. Cindy in the South
ReplyDeleteShe is adorable.
DeleteI finally convinced Tommy to pay some bills online, and some by phone. He no longer takes bill to power board and gas company. Now, all is on auto pay. The only thing I ever paid in person was the power bill, but I could use a check over the phone. However, getting out of the house is good for you. Going somewhere fun would be better.
ReplyDeleteI agree that returning brides that are scheduled is a motivator. When is sissie coming?
Nate must be frustrated.
Not soon enough. SIssie should be here by the end of May.
DeleteLOL Kitty seems to be winning by a very large margin. What lovely gifts you got in that fabric and those embroidered quilt blocks.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I know. Auntie and I went out and got a beautiful blue shantung to go between them.
DeleteI do feel better when all the bills are paid and like you I mail everything. I do not and will not pay online - old fashioned I guess.
ReplyDeleteJob security - says a lot. At least you know you have a constant income.
Kitty just doing what kitty should be doing - catching things.
Have a good one.
I am kind of like you. I have seen too many fiascos paying online. This is a very small town, and everything can be paid within a few blocks of driving. Just slip check into drop box.
DeleteIt is hard, but unfortunately part of the price I pay. Yes paying bills is always a struggle. But I always did it so nothing new other than how much everything costs!
