I’ve decided that I’m watching to many reports of heinous crimes committed by deranged demons.
I took more of those jellies last night and even though it made me sleepy, I kept waking up suddenly as if I heard something frightening
I know we need to know what’s going on. That we need to shout from the rooftops that this is not to be borne
I feel like I’m abandoning those victims. They didn’t have the choice to just stop seeing or thinking about it.
So I won’t. Not totally. I’m m just going to spend only a little each day finding out the latest news. And then switch off.
This is where crafting is very useful indeed
It’s a very hot and windy day. We are all in high alert for fires. We have a total fire ban today.
NO FIRES ALLOWED
I woke up. Fed everyone who hubby hadn’t feed stripped the bed and got the sheet in the line
I then went into my craft room.
No radio
No music
And no audiobooks
Just me and the sound of my sewing machine
I continued working on the bag
After a couple of hours this is what I achieved
It doesn’t look like much, but, believe me it was very time consuming.
Reading the instructions was a no go.
I’m not good with written instructions at the best of times. I prefer pictures.
But these were particularly bad.
So I just looked at the few pictures they had and just worked it out.
Attaching that pocket was a fiddly, hot flush inducing hour of torture.
Surprisingly I did not get flustered and I did not swear at it.
I just kept going.
I know. I’m shocked too
It started to get hot in the house so I’ve pulled down the blinds, turned on the AC and after bringing in the sheets I’m sitting.
The current WIP I’m finishing is another granny blanket
I think I’ll just finish the row I’m on and it will be done.
There is one more granny square blanket and I’ll tackle that next.
It’s an easy and meditative process, allowing me to watch telly while I work.
That’s pretty much it. I hope you’re looking after your mental health. Taking a time out is sometimes very needed.
