why are we waiting...

I am supposed to have someone come and install... something, to do with upgrading my broadband and getting a TV service which I won't actually use, but the whole package is cheaper than the broadband&phone I'm currently getting. So I got up and did some panicked tidying and hoovering and now I am waiting. Between one and six, they said.

I discovered the hoover was set on Delicate, which is why it wasn't sooking much. I feel a bit dumb for not noticing that before.

Last night I crocheted a seam in a rug, so I could hang it on a curtain pole. It is very decorative - I bought it in Mexico in 2005, and since then it has been mostly bundled up in a corner. I have been planning to put in on the wall since I moved in three-and-a-half years ago; I put the pole up some months ago; now it is finally up.

Usually I go to a knitting group on Tuesday evenings. I go to my pal's house on the way; sometimes she comes with me, and sometimes she doesn't, and sometimes I persuade her when she wasn't going to, but last night she persuaded me to stay at hers and watch telly. I knitted while there, though.

Ooh, just got a phone call, broadband man en route. I don't like people in my house, I hope it doesn't take long.

ETA: It did not take too long, and the fella said it was nice and simple, and he was friendly but not particularly chatty (which I appreciated) and. Yeah. Done. Phew. Now I can have cake.

Also, here is a picture of my rug. Also you can see a bit of the toy dragon on my bedpost. The colour doesn't look deep enough but maybe that is the light or my screen or something.
