Working on the rug

It was the usual morning. I had breakfast in front of the computer. I was checking e-mail when the phone rang. Unfortunately I was not wearing my watch and talked too long. Then I had to race to get ready for the thrift shop. There weren't many books to shelve, but a fair amount of VHS tapes. I also counted puzzle pieces. This time I got 1020. Most of the 1000 piece puzzles that I count have over 1000 pieces. How come they don't say that on the box? Geri was having sushi for lunch. She gave me a few pieces and they were really tasty. She bought them at the commissary, and they were better than any I had ever bought there. At 2 the emergency alarm went off. It was a test of the emergency system in Korea. All traffic off-post came to a stop and no one was allowed to enter or leave post for 20 minutes. But it was just a test. At 2:30 I went to the post office to mail my hst's. Then I went home. Traffic was backed up leaving gate 52. I spent some time reading more e-mail, then I heard the doorbell ringing. It was the stove repair man. He took the door apart but didn't know how to fix it. He called three or more people. Then he left, unable to explain to me the situation. Later our real estate agent called to say he told her to find someone else to fix the window gasket. Chris and Michele got home about the same time. We had leftovers for supper. I had taken some time to sew selvage edges together in a LONG strip. After supper we watched CSI episodes while I crocheted them into a rug. I was amazed how quickly I used up so many strips, and it didn't add a lot of acreage to the rug. I made Chris a sandwich and now I am ready to go to bed.
