Yeah, dealing with uncertainty is hard enough for me alone. It must be a thousand times harder with kids, especially when it's ABOUT the kids! Yikes. Good luck, y'all.
ION, I just got an email from eShakti:
Dear Jesse
Thank you for your order with eShakti.com.
Today is the 4th business day from the date of your order. Due to a dramatic rise in recent order levels, we are experiencing a production delay of approximately 10 days from the scheduled ship dates.
We take responsibility for this, and upon shipping your order, we will compensate you by crediting your credit card account. This discount will be reckoned by the number of days of delay. Upon shipment of your order, we will notify you of the credit.
This is not a substitute for timeliness, and it will be our endeavor to quickly get back to shipping orders per schedule.
Thank you for your patience.
Regards
---Carol

I am disappointed, but impressed!
Okay, this is me fixing something that dissatisfied me in The Avengers (no spoiler): [link]
I'm not finished, but it's a start.
What does eShakti sell? I'm going to go take a look. I want money back. If only I could work out how to get it without spending first...

Colin looks too *nice*. I can't see it. OTOH, if Colin wanted to grow his hair out a bit and slounge and sneer and play a villain, I would watch that.
eShakti sells clothes, that you can have them customize.
Scrappy, that sucks. Hope he feels better quickly.
Oh dear, Scrappy! Poor husband. And then poor you, because you'll have to deal with everything!
What does eShakti sell?
Pretty pretty dresses. I saw on FB that Steph bought one, so I immediately copied her and ordered the same one. And also another one.
Oh Scrappy.
I have never bought from eShakti, but I am always tempted because you can customize length and add sleeves.
Speaking of Steph, has anyone seen her pixels since she told us about collapsing?
Poor Scrappy and husband. It sounds like "The Night the Bed Fell," except I suppose no one was calling "Hark" and throwing shoes.
Has anyone found a brand or type of protective gloves for things like washing dishes that are not yucky and don't make your hands sweat? I hate gloves. After years of resistance, I managed to make myself wear gloves while gardening. Now, however, this stupid medicine essentially makes the skin on my hands very thin, and I think I'm going to have to find something I can tolerate. However, I don't want to have to buy All The Gloves to do it.
A completely unrelated question, except that both are all about me: QR codes on business cards - effective or so 2010s?
If you think Colin is nice, you've fallen for his master plan.
Apparently QR codes are stupid. I've never found them worth the effort myself. But gizmodo and lifehacker despise them.
Ginger, I don't know about gloves, since I don't have a problem with regular supermarket dishwashing gloves, but maybe a thin cotton glove under the rubber gloves would work?
Apparently QR codes are stupid.
The have a kind of 8-track feel about them, like they're going to disappear and leave all the people who own them feeling dumb. Some people are recommending them, but I've found other freelance writer types are often behind the tech curve.
