Noticed the other day that my sun hat is starting to get a bit shabby.
On weekend was at the Flea market and saw a lady selling custom hats I liked. She didn't have a perfect one at the Flea but suggested I go to her shop and could pick out the materials for a custom one. Price is not cheap but is reasonable for custom work.
Scheduled visit to her shop for Monday, told her I'd be taking the train (her shop is about 40 miles from my house) and would call on board to let her know if I was coming or not at the appointed time.
Monday, train arrived slightly late but not awful, still plenty of time before due at shop. Was waiting to board before calling. Just as the train pulled up the lady calls and says she's going home because it's starting to snow and she assumed I'm not coming because I didn't call at the stroke of 4 o'clock. (Note I already have unrefundable round trip ticket. Also note that the snow wasn't even sticking or consistently being snow at this point in the day.)
Spent Tuesday coloring in my old hat with a Sharpie, because I'm not ever going to be buying anything from that lady.
Also: someone in Bernalillo seems to be stealing my delivered packages. Tracking numbers are showing things delivered that I never received.
