Fixing stuff

My vacation is fleeing by and I'm trying to cross off lots of things on the 3-page "to do" list. Yesterday I took my diamond necklace to a local jeweler to be repaired (it broke a year and a half ago). It will be done in two weeks. Two weeks? Doesn't he just have to drop the diamond into a new pendant?! Yesterday I also took my sewing machine in to be serviced/repaired. It was no small task getting to the South Boston shop only to see a big sign on the window that they had moved to Quincy! I wasn't happy since I had called to find out their hours and there was no mention of a new location. Oh well. I got back in the traffic I had just been in and found the new shop. The good news is he repairs the machines quickly and it was ready today! All that for $45. My machine is humming and I'm getting some projects done tonight.














My friend and I had lunch (at 2:45pm) at Famous Dave's which was worth the drive to Braintree. They even gave me $5 off my meal since I was a first-timer. The ribs were delicious!
