Tales of Woe and Pictures, Pictures, Pictures

We're back on dial-up. Less than a year ago we bit the bullet and paid an incredible amount of money to get satellite since cable and dsl wasn't available. At best, we found satellite to be of little use because it was unpredictable and we got very little tech support. Yup, at its best! Imagine what I really want to say. Bottom line folks,there are too many subscribes assigned to a single satellite. I do know only one person who has no problems with this company and she is not in this state. Two weeks ago we learned dsl was finally available and signed up for it (having to pay a very hefty satellite penalty). We had (past tense) the service for less than 5 days and poof! no dsl. It's now been 8 days without dsl and we're back on dial-up. No idea when the dsl will be back. There is an explanation which I don't understand. But it has to do with a "box" that only "one" person knows how to install at some undisclosed location. I won't go into having the first modem shipped to an address 8 miles away to a town I've never lived in only to be told that they can't change the address because it's my primary address. Huh? Three modems later the billing is still wrong because I apparently I don't know where I live, but where ever it is, it is my primary residence.

Here are two of the 3.5 "What If" towels. These are samples that I can look at to pull designs from. Set at 20 epi, it's easy to count how many threads were tied. One resist is on top of the next, but artistic placement wasn't the aim, but one of little samples. The blue is bluer, darker, very indigo-ish.

I kind of like this one as is. Lets call it Thunderstorm

When you have no internet service you pull out old shirts and polyester-cotton aprons and dyes.

Very ethnic, no? Very blurry, but then I'm on dial-up, I'm short and I've had my first cocktail.

Love this............a tartan on acid...

The "in word" is "organic"
