That's the way it was yesterday. Nothing was ventured and nothing was gained. My driver's license expired in June, and because of COVID-19 I had until the end of October to renew it. Yesterday seemed like a good day, so I headed out for the DMV. I arrived five minutes after they opened, and I could not believe how long the line was.
Rather than wait around, I headed over to daughter Carol's house. We looked through some family paperwork together and ate breakfast together. Around 9:30 I left to get some links taken out of my watch band, and then I headed back to the DMV. The line was about half the length that it had been at 8 o'clock, so it seemed like a good idea to stay.
It took three hours and 15 minutes. I sure wish I'd had a chair with me! By the time I arrived home, it was 2:30 and I did not have the energy to do anything. So... nothing ventured, nothing gained.
This morning, Mom and I headed upstairs to organize fabric. We had so much fun sorting and coming up with ideas for things to make! I chose some to take downstairs for lavender eye pillow pillowcases, and that fabric went right into the washing machine.
I did manage to fill and close 16 lavender eye pillows. The fabric for the pillowcases has been washed, dried, and ironed. It's now ready for cutting and sewing. That probably won't happen tomorrow. I have face masks to finish for daughter Carol.
After finishing the little pillows, Mom and I headed over to Carol's house so that Mom could look through some family records. We ate lunch with Carol and then headed home.
While Mom took a nap, I finished up the day's laundry. After that, we just relaxed and enjoyed each other's company.
Mom and I are having so much fun together!
