New sampler and traffic jams.

I started on another little reproduction sampler. Here is what I have done so far.

Work was fine, but the evening was a nightmare. I went to my chiropractor appointment and stopped to get more top soil, potting soil and sand for filling in ruts. Then the fun began. NOT!  It would normally take 20 - 25 minutes to get home from the home improvement store; last night it took an hour! I have no idea why traffic was backed up. Once I got down the last hill and turned left to go up the hill to get home, traffic was all backed up again. Once I finally got close to the front of the line, the road I would take was blocked off! No wonder the line to turn left was so long! I got stuck when I tried to go around a trailer and ended up having to go right. This took me at least four or five miles out of my way. I was exhausted by the time I finally got home. I unloaded the dirt and sand then went inside. I turned on the TV and it wasn't working! Geeze!  By that time I was ready to punch someone! My neighbor came over and pushed some button and got it working again.  He and his wife were leaving to head to a funeral in which they were running late.  Where they were going was to the  direction I just came from.  At least I could warn him which was not to go.  With the TV fixed I got  something to eat I sat down and saw that Bruce was going to be at Kamala's rally.

I was texting my son and telling him that I hated this streaming crap; give me back my VCR!  You don't get any manual on how to get this stuff to work.  He said you'll get use to it.  Because he didn't understand my struggle, I gave him a comparison.  I told him what if I gave someone who didn't know how to sew a pile of fabric, thread, a sewing machine, batting and tell them to make a quilt with no instructions?  Do you think they could do it without any instructions?  That's how I feel.  After watching a bit of Obama's speech, I had to go to bed. I was exhausted.
