I am actually pretty impressed with how much we accomplished around the house yesterday. Especially considering I didn’t wake up at all until eleven o’clock! Once I got out of bed, it did not take long for me to get motivated. My oldest has gotten really helpful with chores and took care of quite a bit. It feels really good.
We definitely have a lot of cleaning to do before we leave. It can feel fairly overwhelming, but I’m in energy mode right now, in spite of the heat. And, in spite of the usually overwhelming state of this country right now. So we all pulled together and we’re almost halfway done. I even had time to take a break and knit. And I blocked a wrap I finished a few days ago.
Today has been a little less productive. I’m ok with that. I did a few chores, packed my knitting bag, decided I was going to make a camping shawl for my sister, my mom, and for myself, packed some beach stuff, packed most of my clothes. Well, maybe I’ve done more than I thought.
I’ve also realized I’m going to have a lot of yarn to wind because I’m going to start each shawl in the car on the way there. I’m just trying to decide if I should make us all asymmetrical ones, or if I should make a different shape for each of us. Decisions. Decisions…
