I need to convince myself that when I am doing things that are not making things, it is still work. Like, for example, drawing designs for logos, or trying out new stitch patterns or similar.
It's stupid, I know, but I think my brain has to have something "stupid" going on in order to function correctly. Also, I know that makes zero sense.
I never got to playing with beads/socks/felt because I spent the afternoon printing out pictures of stuff I've made as a kind of portfolio to show to people. Then I felt too tired/didn't have enough time before tea to get everything out, so I didn't *sadface* Might buy some more sequins and possibly buttons tomorrow to make up for that.
I'm mad that tomorrow I'm going to lose a whole day of work because I have to go to Halifax for this stupid job advisor woman who doesn't seem to realise that being self-employed = work. That said, I've got a scarf I've been making that's nearly finished, so I can finish it on the bus (an hour each way!) And then I can start on the first of my two remaining commissions and plot out questions/answers for a poll, and maybe work on that idea I had this afternoon.
I'm also mad because I ordered a polystyrene head just after Xmas. It was supposed to come, at the latest, by the 7th. The money for the order went out of my bank on the 30th of Dec, and the order was allegedly dispatched on the 29th. If it's not here by Saturday, it will be a week late, and I will be writing an angry email to the seller.
I wouldn't be so mad, but that I actually need it for work.
I thought about trying to find one tomorrow in Halifax, but the likelihood of that is very, very slim. Although I will traipsing all over town in search of a plain white t-shirt, so who knows?
UGH. I am sure I was going to write more than this, but I am SO VERY TIRED that I can't concentrate, and I need to go to sleep.
