Grah. I'm this close - this close - to finishing my brother's Xmas present. So close! Just one more tentacle, and then I have to stitch them on, and then add the eyes and the mouth, and then they're done! And I'll be able to post pictures of them! Just - SO CLOSE al;sdkfjsdl!
Of course, I was totally irresponsible and put off Mom's birthday present(s) to work on Tom's thing(s), never mind that her birthday is on the twenty-seventh. Just. Dachshunds are slightly more boring to crochet than Tangle Buddies? IDK IDK IDK. Maybe if I skip writing the damn pattern as I go and do that after instead...
And then once I'm done with that, I'll need to make Xmas presents for both her and Dad. But Dad's is pretty easy to figure out, probably, so I should be relatively okay. And then I can get to work on things like the Tetris blanket (which I finally got all my colors for today) and possibly also commissions so I can have a little bit more financial breathing room. Possibly I might even be able to rearrange those a bit, but I'm not 100% betting on it.
Speaking of financial breathing room and suchnot, I'm possibly potentially going to maybe perhaps get an interview about designing T-shirts tomorrow? I'll definitely be turning in the app tomorrow, if nothing else. And lining up design stuff (like my past Quire poster/flier things, and a few T-shirt designs I made for myself, etc) just in case. Flower business is supposed to pick up soon as well; I think I'll need to write cheat-sheets for myself to study while I'm away from the store so I can be somewhat competent while I'm there, sigh. I imagine my half-a-milligram Rx of "take as needed" lorazepam will be getting quite a workout shortly :(
We are not speaking of that "NaNo" thing. You have imagined it.
