Week has been long. But I've been doing good on keep on top of tasks (though I have towels to put away). I took Thursday night off from crafts but have been weaving and knitting this week. The Pride shawl is still going well. I've figured out how to fucking count using a ludicrous amount of stitch markers and keeping track by tens to make sure I'm spot on. And I have been for the last 3 rows and even caught my own error so that was good. Yes! I've weaving and I took the loom to knit night on Wednesday and managed to weave about a foot before I ran out of shuttle thread. NBD but I've woven 41" out of the 5ish yards that loom makes. So yay.
Monday I put away the clothes laundry hydra and cleaned up my side of the bedroom. Tuesday I folded towels/sheets and put the towels away. The bedding needs homes and I need time to pull the bind in the linen closet and do a kull so things will fit. But that will lead to the purge of the main bathroom (which is fine) to make room to have towels in there which I think is a fine plan. Might be this afternoons project. Dunno.
I have a retirement party tonight Reilly's to attend and then I and willa are hitting dinner and drinks at Cruda It will be nice to get out of the house. The boys will be packing for Champions in the Pines in Prescott and if Benton can get his ass up he will also be gone with his dad so I have the house to myself Saturday.
But work has changed our OT policy so now it doesn't count until we have 6 hours OT ready. I rarely work that much OT in a week, maybe 5 at the worst usually 3. So instead now I will be comp timing it until I have to take it which is like 3 weeks. So we've now told management to not expect any engineering on Friday afternoons and as the days get closer to the end of the year probably no support on Fridays either. We are burning folks out and things can wait to next week or we will count the time and then balance it. So eah. So today I'm done at noon.
My plan for the weekend is to convert the studio to sewing, make two wearing aprons (like the two I made in SD and left there, these are the other halves), cut out a caftan for Mel, and a least a new over dress for me for Crown.) That is my goals is cutting out. I don't not need things done, they just need to be cut out and ready for sewing. I think this is reasonable for the weekend. With the holiday on Friday I hope to start sewing then on the clothes. The aprons will get sewn since its like two seams and finding some trim for the belts. I will also be weaving and knitting on the pride shawl as well. So crafty weekend with ME TIME and no one to bother me? YES!
Though my need to put sheets away may mean I spend an hour or so cleaning out the cabinets in the bathroom and reorganizing there to fit the towels but still that is okay. Small steps.
I've also done really good at the gym this week and that makes me happy.
