(I actually have that wet-messy dislike too. I like to cook, but mostly to bake....all those nice, dry powdery ingredients! No meat and veggies!) I'll be interested to see where this takes you. You know I'm a big fan of working on things 15 minutes at a time....then I don't get bored and I can easily make myself do almost anything for 15 minutes!! Of course, it takes time to get a project in a state where you can work on it for 15 minutes here and there. And there's that inertia to overcome when you're trying to get started.<br /><br />I've been thinking/reading about time management lately again. Even though I'm finally doing well with spending time in my studio and producing work (not necessarily with blogging about that work), I always feel like there's other important stuff I'm not fitting it. Still working out the balance of it all!<br /><br />I chose a word for the year at my UU church this year too. (If I had heard your word beforehand, I might have claimed it myself. Yours is a good one!)<br /><br />Hope you make some breakthroughs. I know it's frustrating when important parts of your life aren't getting the time or attention they need.<br /><br />SueLife Looms Largehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05522897791564181980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439075114035182590.post-62035457013360561992010-01-11T08:55:47.554-08:002010-01-11T08:55:47.554-08:00A lot of stuff does not large blocks of time, dyei...A lot of stuff does not large blocks of time, dyeing, designing, working out draft problems come to mind. But a lot of stuff can be fit in in small bits of time. Threading heddles or sleying the reed are two good examples. Winding bouts of yarn. Right now i am winding 1" bouts of 60/2 silk, 54 epi, and am extraordinarily busy with some important non-weaving issues. But i find tht if I squeeze in winding only one bout, I feel much better.Peg in South Carolinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07886923838871937466noreply@blogger.com
