  • Tailors are awesome!

    Recently I had one of those Brain-Burp moments. I was wearing a zippered jacket with a new scarf. Naturally, I got the scarf stuck in the zipper

    And it was really stuck, with fabric jammed in there so tight I couldn't make it budge. I was about to cut it free even though I really love this scarf, when it occurred to me to take it to a tailor shop & see if they could get it out.

    I told them I understood there would probably be a hole in the scarf but I really like both the scarf and the jacket. They weren't expensive, but still...The lady in the shop was very nice and totally understood.

    Got both garments back today. I can't even tell where the scarf had been stuck in the zipper. Perfect! It cost me a few bucks but frankly it was well worth it! Yay!!
    When you start at zero, everything's progress.

    Good tailors are well worth every cent (or if your friend or family member is the tailor, every batch of cookies).
    Seshat's self-help guide:
    1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
    2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
    3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
    4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.
