Am I the only one who gets a little overwhelmed when they look at their stash? I’m up to the sleeves on Em’s cardi, and frankly I’m feeling more than a little overwhelmed.
\nAll I want to do is knit. However, I still have 42 costumes for the dance concert unstarted. Emily has a competition starting in 2 weeks. For this she needs her new costume which is a pretty much fully sequinned leotard. I’ve done less than half, and I’ve been working on it since April. Admittedly, I haven’t been working very hard on it. Now the deadline is looming and I still can’t motivate myself to work on it.
\nI think I have too many things to choose from to do. And I want to do them all. Now. Except the things that need to be done, LOL!
\nEm has her annual ballet exam tomorrow. She’s a bit jangly today. And she has jazz and tap exams later in the week. Much as I reassure her that she’ll be fine, she always does fine, she’s reaching an age where her results matter to her<\/i>. When they are littler, they don’t really care how they go. As they get older, the competitiveness kicks in. I have an hour and a half wait while she dances. I guess I’ll take the sequins. But I’d rather take the knitting!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
