Short Work Weeks – Good or Bad?

Usually, I would say good, Good, GOOD! However, this week, I think I’m going to opt for oh-so-BAD. It may not necessarily have been a whole lot better if I had two more days this week, but a short week with so many deadlines coming up and not enough time to meet them is certainly cramping my work.

The awful thing is that I have deadlines at home to meet, as well! I’m fighting pins and needles in my arms today from overdoing typing, stitching and everything else requiring manual dexterity, but I don’t have the time to rest. I have the models finished (hallelujah!), so that’s one worry off of my mind. However, now I need to focus on just finishing the three small hardanger squares left on my July Exchange Gift so that I can finish it and the little companion pincushion and get them in the mail in a week or so. I’ve been avoiding it because it’s an advanced filling design that I’ve never attempted before and about which I’m not feeling terribly confident. After that, I have the Chatelaine tiny mandala garden that I want to complete before we go to Connecticut in August for the first weekend of the Sudberry House garage sale. I at least need to have a reasonable amount done to be able to pick a box that will match the design.

Okay, back to taking it one day at a time. Right now, that may be more like one hour at a time! And with that, I have 2 minutes to get my head on straight and run down the hall to a meeting. Somebody breathe for me, okay? 🙂
