Can We Fix It? Yes We Can!
Jun. 15th, 2006 11:26 pmI spent 2.5+ hours re-roping fifty year old Venetian blinds. It would have taken less time, but I had to do the right side three times before I got it completely right. By the third time I was frustrated and really just wanted Grandma to shell out the cash for new ones.
But I felt really accomplished when I finally got it right! Go me! With my mad Venetian blind fixing skills.
Grades also came out today.

So, yes, all around a non-sucky kind of day. Except for the wind. That was gross. But helpful for the farm, so I guess I won't complain too much.
The stupid weather has cost us roughly $50,000. Not good. Grandma's been complaining about it and I mentioned it to Mom today because, really, I don't have to finish my four years of college in four years. Or I could go somewhere else that's less pricey. (I REALLY wouldn't want to though.) But Mom assures me that we'll be fine and that Grandma just likes to complain.
