Stuffy stuff
It's cold outside. Weather report foresaw -12°C for the night, now it's supposedly around -6, and shouldn't go much above zero during the day. Snowfalls in the afternoon - yay to that, cold is always better with snow !
Two things are bugging me though. First, the heating is scrambling to get the house to day temperatures again. I'm sitting here with two pairs of socks, two t-shirts, a warm sweater and a woollen shwal, and my fingers are still cooooold.
Secondly, I have to go out today. I need to go to the post office to send a christmas present for a gift swap I signed for. Actually, I should've sent it on Wednesday or earlier. I had trouble locating some ingredients, and with snow chaos and my state of tiredness... well, I'm late, and I don't really want to go out with the stroller over iced snow. But it appears if I don't go out this morning, I'll have to go over iced snow and under falling snow this afternoon. Mmmmmf...
Also on the whining front, I made the boning channels too narrow for spiral steel on my maternity corset. They looked okay but when I try to shove the bones through, they just don't get in. The coated tips probably don't help either. I think I'm going to go for plastic boning after all, it served me well on my other corsets so far, after all.
