i had to move my work area to our living/dining space tonight because of some unforeseen project deadline-related circumstances.
so if i must be working late, i may as well keep some creature comforts close by: hydrangeas from the garden, candles, and just a little knitting. which reminds me, some tea would be nice.
and the olympics. this is the only time of day i ever get to catch up on the olympics.
i swam competitively for the philippines when i was little. all the butterfly events make my heart race. all of them.
listening to the late 90's music of my university days while i work makes me feel better.
fighting the "buy yarn now" twitch.
wishing i was knitting or beach combing or hanging with my family instead.
when i do get a chance to knit these days, my gauge is much tighter than usual.
time for some chocolate. yes. chocolate will make the work go faster.
right.
in the last two weeks, i've managed to work two workdays more than i'm technically paid to work.
the workshop materials i've been working on have, this morning, been sent to the clients for the second round of reviews.
my brain is mush.
i am so grateful to have a job. but i'm even more grateful its the weekend.
to celebrate, i really want to buy yarn. but i won't. (i bought patterns instead)
now, i'm going to take this little boy, who camps outside my office door because he's still not too sure of his nanny, out for a little walking date - just as soon as i've finished the need-to-have-done tasks i've set out to do today.
there will be no thoughts of the job-that-pays this weekend. absolutely definitely none.
enjoy your weekend!
