feng_shui_houseI didn't sleep well last night, cuz hamster on a wheel brain kept running scenarios of what I should say to the credit card folk when I call today. Editing and refining and over and over.
It's really not something I have control over. *sheesh*
I explained that it was my backup card, and while the person at billing had said I didn't need to cancel it and get a new card I last remembered using it at Target last December, a few days before the massive credit card security leak became public knowledge so I wanted to cancel it and get a new card. (Yeah, pretty much in one breath. I TRIED to break it up into sane sentences when talking.)
Had to move away from the computer so she could hear me- I guess it's giving off vibes. We did all the info. verifying bit, etc. and then I remembered to ask about the disputed charges & she said they'd already been taken off, and it was done.
Shall keep an eye on billmail anyway, in case it's like DMCA- taken down at the first protest, but can be reinstated if Metropcs puts it back on. I didn't have a feeling that Metropcs customer service people were very bright...
Well, now I'm tired... shall try to make a few designs, or look at my long-stalled WIP...
And I did make some designs, including one I finished at 3a.m. when I couldn't sleep, so not entirely a waste.

'Monkeys' is my contest entry for 'umbrellas'. Am I the only one who remembers
'Gorillas in the Mist'? :^)

And of course, you are not the only one who remembers...

If you want to look at any more of the stuff in my shop, there's a fairly easy way to see the designs.
Go to Eclectic_House shop,
scroll down and click on 'fabric collections' which will bring up all the collections, and show a few of each, then click on the title of any collection that interest you and you can see a whole bunch (up to 30 designs in each collection) in good size view on one page without any distracting text. More variations of the tiger are in Temp. Swatch 5.
The collections that are named 'Temp' are the newest ones & not sorted into categories, just as I make them, I stick them in until I can get enough credit for swatching. I just got back the swatches for Temp. Swatch 1 tonight & will be fixing them up for sale tomorrow, I hope.

I like to think that just owning it is a satisfaction. You can look at it and pet it, and pretend that someday it will miraculously become something. :^)
Reminds me, I STARTED to make myself a yoga mat. Got as far as deciding which of the ZILLIONS of fabrics I have is suitable, made sure it was big enough to fit the piece of foam I have, and ironed the fabric! Well... one day...
