I have owed you this report for a couple weeks now. What can I say -- life has been nuts... and it is hay fever season. Really? Did I need this? What, was Kleenix loosing market share or something?
Anyway, two weekends ago I sat my fanny down in Chez Hovel, turned off the TV, turned on the audio books, hunted up all those little things that needed just a little effort to finish (nope, I have no idea why I could not have done this sooner), and settled myself in to be accomplishful. 'Lo and behold I was! In spades!
Here is Blackbird Designs -- Spring House. Colors changes, of course. It will be an ornie.
Doodles -- Holiday Sprinkles -- I bet you can guess it will be an ornie.
Brittercup -- Christmas Pup -- colors changed as per usual (Hey, So Many Books -- do you think you will be surprised when you get it?)
I can't remember at the moment who the designer is on this, but I seem to recall it is called Fat Dog -- on ornie (yes, So, that's your Luke!)
Bent Creek's Snowman House -- this is a Zipper kit which I just ignored the nasty, giant burlap fabric they think I ought to do it on
Sampler Girl -- Hope Perches -- sorry for the wrinkles. I did iron it before I sent it off to the finisher's to be put in a box.
My ANG class patriotic heart -- in Splendor, Kreinik, and beads
Princess and Me -- Biker ornie -- a medley of floss, Silk Lame Braid, Neon Rays, Fyre Werks, Needle Necessities (I had some old skeins hanging around), and Sparkle Rays. This guy will have a partner soon .... I hope.
So all of those in one weekend (Saturday morning through Sunday lights out). I think I also finished 2.5 or 3 audio books that weekend too. Yes, as a matter of fact I am still smugly proud.
I know my productivity won't last -- after all, I'm nearly out of things that are close to being done, and I just found out that once again my office team is moving so I will lack all motivation and energy until we are settled again. But they have succeeded in breaking me down -- 6 moves in 3 years and instead of being worried about everything and freaking out about getting ready I am so blase about it all. Whatever-- that's my office word on the move.... Whatever.
Here's to productive and peaceful weekends for you all.
