I am so sorry for the long wait; I had a hectic couple of weeks.
Indeed, I cannot fathom the madness we are embedded in. Nothing really is repairable, and it seems like it will only get worse from here on. We constantly hear about big companies destroying fashion items and clothing rather than giving it away to the needy or even to those that can still use them, we hear about food being thrown away even if completely edible. It seems like we are headed into stranger times.
Indeed!!
And never mind the 'long wait' it's like that sometimes...:)
