My daughter surprised me with a plane ticket to sunny California. I arrived on her birthday and met my youngest grandson for the fist time. Three days later my sinuses were clogged and I couldn't hear. I waited five days and went to the doctor. Bronchitis and ear and sinus infections. I ran through a regimen of antibiotics and when I got home I called my own doctor. Another course of antibiotics. I just did not want to do anything but sleep. Finally, I seem to be getting over it. My ears still clog up some days, but I am definitely feeling better.
A few times I tried to write this blog, but I was having trouble with my computer. It kept locking up on me an wouldn't let me into my e-mail , my bank account, my blog or just about anything else.
Did I mention that I have an amazing son-in-law? He was so nice to me during my visit, even though I was miserable company. He is also a computer expert and he went into my computer and fixed a lot of the program for me. It seemed that every program I wanted to access had downloads that I had to download. But they didn't do anything but add junk to my computer that they wanted me to pay for. I didn't want it to begin with. My e-mail is with AOL and they said I had to download their new program. I did it and got all kinds of junk with it and still couldn't log in. I put in a call to customer service last Wednesday and still haven't heard back from them. Okay, I'm almost done whining.
It is Saturday morning and I woke up early enough to watch the only quilting show available locally. I live in Akron, Ohio. Guess what? It wasn't on. Neither was Sewing with Nancy or the Spotted Canary. Once upon a time there were all kinds of craft and\
needlework shows on and now I can't find any. Are people no longer interested in program of this type on TV? HGTV used to have a nice selection of craft programs, but now all you get is home decorating. How many times can I redecorate my house or buy a new one?
I know just about anything you want is on-line somewhere, but I hate searching for it. I can waste hours seeking a certain bit of information, being run in all kinds of circles and still not find what I want. I don't think I'm the only one with this complaint. How can we get craft and needlework program back on television?
I'm done complaining. Have a good Memorial weekend.

I guess I will whine along with you...I have been whining about the lack of craft shows on DIY and HGTV for a while now. I can sometimes old Fons and Porter shows on PBS and Sew with Nancy, but that is all. I just found your blog via a link on Pinterest for a Fons and Porter pattern and have enjoyed reading your blog!
