I was supposed to post yesterday, but it was a holiday here in Massachusetts so I slacked all over the place.

How are all of your spring creative plans going? I just realized that I have been doing the decorative section of the sweater I'm knitting wrong from the beginning, but as I have frogged it thrice I'm just going to see if I can make the wrong work and go with it for the balance of the sweater rather than losing a month worth of work. And that is where my creativity is. pbbblllttt.

Big Buddy should be at 73%. Are we all on schedule?

Your Flash Challenge for the week is "Lalalalala." Go forth and be creative.

I'm just doing a drive by today as I have a 5 pm appt and it's 4:48, so go look through the challenges and MAKE ME MORE THINGS TO COUNT!!!

Love to you all!

I've managed way over my count with tons of editing hours in...and today did some cover design work. Not sure I'll get all the way to publishing ready by the end of the month, but I should have the editing/proofing done (or nearly so).
Then again, the office will be pretty empty and quiet this week...so we'll see how it goes.

OMG with the frogging! So with you! I did enough with my temp blanket till I got sick of being the perfectionist! Bleh, do what works for you, I say. Generally, no one else notices!

Speaking of projects, my daughter just asked me to crochet some slippers for #1 grandson (henceforth N1G), and I found a place that premakes sheepskin soles for them (holes already punched!), and found a pattern too, so naturally I am very excited to get started! Just waiting for the soles now! I already have some leftover yarn (the greens I did those handwarmers for you in) to use!

Oh, and I finished March on the temp blanket!

Keep trying to find time to do the 100-in-100 icons too (got pics ready, just need to get graphicing!), but I keep getting side-tracked to other things!

Need to look for Orig fic WiPs to add to for the current challenge... also need to find NZ places of interest to post in [livejournal.com profile] hawaii_2016 for NZ_2026, and I have to finish work on Hubby's chair fix... *sigh*...the list goes on!

LOVE YOU! ;-)

I am nowhere near where I need to be.

As for the sweater, no one but you will know it's not right. I say run with it!

The only thing I am doing to day is forcing myself to stay upright until my payroll approval comes in. She's like 2 hours late with it and I want to cry. I need to get out of this place and if she takes much longer, there will be no point in going home early.

Sorry, didn't mean to get maudlin on you! Hope you started a revolution on Monday. I heard they honored it at the start of the Boston Marathon, which I thought was fun!

I'm sorry for laughing, but I can't help it. Is this the evil sweater you've been telling me about?

Thank you. I am better today, if still tired. But that is an improvement over the last few days. Tomorrow is Friday and I plan on doing zilch this weekend. Except watch hockey. Hah.

In that case, this sweater might steal your soul! But it's okay - I have homegrown garlic and can bring some salt.

Right, it's a hobby, but you don't want your hobby to make you crazy either.

Thanks. :D Now, if the Knights can just win again, we'll be golden, so to speak.
