last week’s frustrations

Last Wednesday I was dealing with several frustrations, two of which I jotted down on this sketchbook page. And felt so much better after I did! Everything turned out fine in the end, so I wasn’t even going to post it at first. But it’s a reminder to myself not to let frustrations win. Drawing is a much better use of my time.

Our son Jason came after school (he teaches physics) and got my ear pods sorted for me — it seems they were just trying to pair with my MacBook instead of my iPad. 

And Etsy got involved with the damaged gift — one look at the photos and they immediately refunded me themselves. Bill had picked out this antique churn without its tamper as a birthday gift, to be used to hold umbrella, cane, and walking stick. It arrived 3 weeks later than expected, smashed in transit due to the seller not packing it safely. All the way from Norway in only a bit of bubble wrap and brown paper, no box or carton!
