So far this weekend's list looks like this:
1. Get back to crafting:
- start second sleeve of Cobblestone Pullover
- figure out whether I'm making socks or slippers for a certain someone (bonus points for actually starting them)
- make & can puttanesca sauce
2. Wrap fruitcakes in booze-soaked cheesecloth
3.
4. Caulk the living room window
5. Work on the Woodland Draft Buster from Betz White's Sewing Green
6. Give myself a pedicure
This is in addition to some administrative work I need to do as well as a full day in Buffalo tomorrow (yay! get to finish my letterpress holiday cards), and lunch/art in Toronto on Sunday. Thankfully, I have Mondays off this term.
I realized that even though I was ahead of the holiday craft game this summer, I'm suddenly feeling the holidays closing in. There's still a lot of things I need to get started if I'm really going to be 95% handmade this season (5% goes to books - more on that later).
The tension in all of this is whether I really just want to be lazy and lay around the house or use some of my manic energy and get sh*t done. So many options!
Saturday: super weather so hyperactive.
ReplyDeleteSunday: grey weather, went out for a minimum of grocery, bake a cake, nap, knit a hat, nap, watch an episode of Flying Circus etc...
Monday: reading your blog to see you are off on Mondays... Feeling a little envious...
