My computer is going to the shop for a couple of weeks, so I am writing my news early, in order to have a few items for next weekend. But guess I won’t have a column for the following Sunday, as I don’t expect my computer home until Easter Sunday. Sorry to miss a week.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY. “No one can whistle a symphony, it takes a whole orchestra to play it.” — H.E. Luccock.

HELPFUL HINT. When pinning up a skirt or pants hem on someone, have them stand up a few stair steps, saves your back not to have to stoop so far. When I was doing seamstress work, I had my clients to that.
