Sewing Crypt Forecast

[threadwalker]

News from the Sewing Crypt.

The rats and bats and spiders are recovering from the Ropa jaunt. Actually finishing the garments that went with the Ropa was invirogating and the spiders want to know when they can get started requisitioning supplies from the Dungeon (aka "garage") for the next project. Also, in order to do this, they need to know what the project list is and what the priority is.

So Igor, the Brain in the Box, is making a list of projects that it has either made a commitment to or is thinking of making a commitment to. Thus:

Early peroid stuff per upcoming workshop series w/ students. Monthly goals based on workshop.

Anything else? besides Collegium, embroidery gifties, keeping up with work/family/house/yard?


Forecast is ... busy and kind of Italian ...Well, it is a "wish" list afterall. Writing it all down makes me laugh at myself. As if I could do half of this!!!! Well, that's why I write these things down. So I can see how impossible the mission is and not let myself get vexed that I have to curtail some stuff. ........

In the meantime, my rodent seamstresses and insect helpers need to get cracking if anything will be finished. Hahahaha!

heh heh... and I thought the list was lighter than usual and worthy of congratulations. ;-)

I would have no concerns about actually meeting all these deadlines if I wasn't also doing Collegium. Collegium sucks my brain space away from projects - even when I'm not actively doing anything for the event. I'm a very goal-oriented, tunnel vision kind of person. Just how I'm wired. Just my matrix.

So would you take the blue pill or the red pill? lol

heh

I want to see this list highlighted in December with the ACTUAL project list. I predict many more entries.
