Trying to get in sync

 I have spent a lot of time since my last post not being in total agreement with my body.  Unfortunately my body won, so I rested Whether I liked it or not. Except for an afternoon nap I think I’m back on track. But then again naps are kind of my thing. 

I did finish my 25th scarf and 89th project of 2021.  Maybe I should try to finish all my UFO’s by the end of the year.  We all know the odds are stacked against me because I love starting new projects.  My knitting needles hate being empty, they get cold. Well wish me luck.

I Plan…

 Okay my body and I are at odds.  I spent a lot of time sleeping.  I did fold yesterday’s laundry and clean out a Fibber Maggie and Molly worthy cabinet that has been on my list for while.  I was to tired to knit tonight so I binged on jigsaw puzzles on my iPad.  I finished 5 tonight, some were partially done.

What Happens When The Fall Cores Are Done

 We are almost done with our fall cleaning spree.  We only have a few things to do.  This will give me time to finish up the bits and pieces of projects that are almost finished.  A few rows here. Weaving in the ends.  A Kitchener finish for a scarf.  Fixing my stitch markers.  Maybe even spinning and weaving.  I want to see empty project bags.

The Goal is Insight

 The end is in sight. I have gotten to the minutia of the cleaning spree most of the check list is gone.  Right now the devil is in the details.  My body has decided that I have over done it and I am taking involuntary afternoon naps.  I hope to finish tomorrow morning. If I get up early I will start with the fridge and laundry.  I have decided to take a few days off doing laundry.  I guarantee that it will wait for me.  

Well I think it’s time to call it a day.

Over Achieving

 I know that I have been over doing it when I reach my weekly exercise goal by Tuesday by 3:30 pm.  My goal is 30 minutes of exercise a day over 7 days.  That is quite reasonable. 155 minutes in 2 1/2 days not so much. I did 95 of those minutes today, so far. I still have 2 rooms to put back together.  No wonder I am exhausted.  Off to mop another floor.  Ok, I gave up and left the steam mopping to John. I think I will rest for a bit and then put things back together again.  I am glad that all of my fiber storage drawers are on wheels.  Rolling, rolling, keep those drawers rolling.  

After a brief rest I put 2 rooms back together.  We only need to add a table and chair to make a temporary office space.  The space will have the pantry so course that means it has its own MK Snack area, minus the drinks.  I landed  up with a total of 138 minutes of cleaning time, for the day. Ok, it’s 2 hours and 18 minutes.  Is it any wonder that I was too tired to do much knitting tonight?  

I have also crossed out a few of tomorrow’s chores, because being the over achiever that I am today the work is done.  I really think it would be wonderful if my body let me sleep tonight.  Wish me luck.

It’s Finely Finished

 This is what craft room number one aka the guest room looks like when all the crafts are finely put away. The room is dusted and vacuumed.  John did the dusting and vacuuming.  This is usually the only time you can see all the carpet   

On the left side of the room is the Murphy Bed.  It folds down to a queen size bed.  A nice cozy spot to hang out in.
