Have you ever had one of those days were everything just seems to rub you the wrong way? That’s how I feel today. Fall allergies are kicking my ass and taking names and I’m exhausted. Work has been busy and stressful the last 2 weeks. Critter and I are still trying to get acclimated to the new routine of the new school year and my apartment is still a mess. Last year my ex’s GF would pick Critter up on the days he was with his dad, which was very nice. She’s not been doing that yet this year and it’s cutting down on my time. Okay, I’m done whining.
I decided to knit Christmas gifts this year and am panicking because I’m not sure I have enough time. I have too many projects on the needle. I have one gift that needs to be done by October 10th (for a birthday) and am coming to the conclusion that I should tell the person what I’m doing so I can knit the gift while he’s with me. Not being able to knit the gift while he’s around is really cutting down on my time, especially since I can’t count on my lunch hour at work (don’t even ask – I said I was done whining).
Would you rather have a knitted gift on time but not a surprise, or a surprise but late?
