The other day, while commiserating with my friend Margaret about our work loads and not seeming to be able to stop to catch a breath, she quoted back to me a comment that I’d deadpanned into one of our conversations once:
“Breathing is just sooo overrated…”
This week, I told her that I think that would make a perfect epitaph for my headstone. That laid both of us flat with laughter.
I shouldn’t complain, because it’s self-inflicted: I’ve taken on too many projects to try to deal with at once. As a result, I’m struggling to do anything as effectively as I’d like. My DH is currently working a rotating shift schedule, 4 – 12 hour days then 4 – 12 nights, which is also wreaking havoc on my regular routine.
As a result, I’m off the rails on the YOJ project. I so want to be producing quality work, but I seem to only have time for the barest minimum, and even that seems mediocre!
In an effort to catch up, I’m going to just put together a couple of very quick pieces. I found these little crochet balls while cleaning up the studio a week or two ago. I made them several years ago, but the project they were intended for didn’t really work out. I applied LOS to some of the balls, and they are being used in the project that will be posted next. These two were left over, so I put them together to make a little pendant.
