Tiresome

The dogs are predictably awful.  Jack found NB's vintage fur hat and attacked it this AM until it was in shreds.  The two canine fools bark all day to be let out and then return to the deck door to be let back in, in a matter of seconds.  

This blog is tiresome and I am glad I have but a few readers and sorry to them for the drudgery.  The worst part of having this blog involves the continuous spam that is received and filtered out by me.  JB set the automatic spam filters higher, but still there are so many "comments" that are worse than useless.  To me they are embarrassing.  I wonder what the reason is for spamming innocent blogs.  Are there any gains?  I can't see why having a listing of random, often obscene words with the name viagra embedded is worth anybody's efforts.

My craft endeavors are desultory as I try to wrap up some UFOs.  The only real fun I've had making items this week are the tablecloths requested by JSN.  I like shopping for a new genre of fabrics, not exactly my taste and then embellishing them with weird trim and such.  Our little jaunt to Cambridge had good yield for trim, buttons, pillow forms, and assorted fabric.

Miss NB is so busy these days. She tries to keep up with her friends, spends more time at her job than she should, and is taking calculus to fulfill HMS prerequisites.  She is far from hearing from several schools and not close to a decision.  At least, this is not dreary.

Probably, some plans should be made for a getaway.  We all have been doing what the rest of the world has to do, with the exception of the privileged few, and that is to go to work regularly and clean the house.
