I know that I have been stressing all week about how I was going to get everything done, so maybe that is the key – the more I stress, the more that eventually gets accomplished. Who knows.
There was a write-in planned for tonight, but Thursday nights are knitting nights for me, and lately I’ve had this tendency to skip them more and more because I’m so tired by this point in the week, and I need to stop doing that. So Richard brought his laptop and I brought my knitting (since conveniently both groups meet in exactly the same coffee house, which means there is occasionally some competition for chairs when things get busy), and I had an absolutely lovely time. I worked on some mindless garter stitch gift knitting, which was about all I figured my brain could cope with at this point in the month. I will admit that I did bring along a lace project but tired brain + low lighting + dark yarn and fiddly pattern do not a happy knitter make, so…garter stitch it was.
Nanowrimo update: Ha ha nothing to see here, move along.
Ah, Grasshopper, you now comprehend the logic of your mother! If you do the required amount of worrying about something beforehand (checking your lists and checking them again)….it will work out all right (but, of course, then your family will make fun of you). BUT, if you do NOT worry sufficiently, then it won’t work out at all and you’ll die of mortification!
