Learning to crochet

I learned to crochet today. Chaining, single crocheting, and double crocheting. The cookie jar was filled so they did not need me to bake more. The assistant supervisor taught me. I instantly picked it up since it really is not difficult, just takes time to get use to it and remember what you were doing when a sneeze attack erupts or someone asks you a question. Somehow I attract wise guys to me trying so hard to stump me with their questions. I have had practice coming up with snappy answers. Next Tuesday, she will present patterns to pick a project for me to do.

Anyway, while trying hard to ignore the phone ringing every 5 minutes with an 800 number popping up on my caller id to have them keep hanging up when they hear my answering machine, my Mom calls. I told her about my phone calls being the only real excitement today besides learning how to crochet. I would think after an hour this 800 number would stop calling, but no, telemarketers never give up. My Mom had to call to inform me she was still planning to come visit my volunteer position. I told her that I won't be hurt or heartbroken if she never shows up there. Perhaps, since my Mom and my sister were the hardest on me trying to publish my novel that they feel it is important to appear at my volunteer position to show support in another way. My sister was very insistant on coming too, which she did with my brother a while ago. My Mom wanted to come to my apartment and ride with me to the place. I told her that she can sit on the furniture in my volunteer house when she is done looking at everything. I won't mind. Post later. Bye!
