Tam's Week Eight

Yep, I'm late. But I was out of town at quilt retreat. Just got home last night. ;)

The Good Stuff:

• Quilt retreat
• Coming home from quilt retreat
• Prepping for quilt retreat
• Journaled most days - I've missed twice, total. No big insights yet, mostly I just gripe or blather about my day.
• Wrote up two concepts.
• Took my nighttime pill every night and slept well.
• Read some of my old work, and liked most of it. I don't think any is useable, though.

Not So Good:

• Came home from quilt retreat with some sort of con-crud, but it's likely a virus I picked up a week or so ago. Sore ears, sore throat. Whee.
• Ate too much crap, put on three pounds. Damn you Caramel Puff Corn!!
• Need three more concepts. Somehow. By Wednesday.
• Didn't log food at all.

Not So Sure:

• Did not finish as much at retreat as I'd wanted so I have a lot of sewing yet to do, soon, so it can go off and be quilted before the rush for graduations and weddings. If my top isn't done by the first of April, it likely won't get quilted until August, at the earliest, and the quilt show is in September and everyone else will want their stuff quilted too. It's a big time crunch.
• While my two concepts have potential with some work and honing, neither floats my boat, so to speak, but nothing really does so what do I know? 
• I've stopped chewing my fingernails (maybe it's the pills??) and I'm not used to having fingernails. They get in the way when I'm typing and cooking, plus I keep scratching myself. :/

Plan for Next Week:

• Write
• Sew
• Log my food
• Contain the dog hair. Labs shed a LOT.

Have a good week, everyone.  {{huggs}}
