End of month yarn stats: 81 entries, 149 skeins, 40466.50 metres, 15208 grams.
Man, it's already four days into October and I'm not ready. I only hit one of the goals for September and I finished nothing! (I did start another Warrior Goddess, but I have to remember when I started it, first!)
I did download my pictures from our camping trip, but I haven't fully gone through them, yet. One week disappeared due to my husband travelling for work, then last week disappeared due to temporarily moving out to my in-laws' house (because my husband was radioactive - still is, actually; I can't sleep in my bed for another few days). October is slightly calmer, but I have no high hopes for finishing anything.
October goals:
1. Remember when I started the latest project. (Which I did buy yarn for, but it's a requested project.)
2. Start the project page in Ravelry.
3. Eat turkey at least once this month.
4. Finish the carton of eggnog we purchased today by Friday (that should be an easy one).
October was not slightly calmer. Okay, maybe a little. But it's somehow over and it feels like each month this year is rolling down the calendar hill at a faster pace than the last month.
I did hit each goal, though! I know, I made them easy, but sometimes you gotta.
I tested a pattern for my favourite designer and did get some yarn out of stash, but I'm still sorting through all the yarn I got from my aunt, so I'm not adjusting any quantities yet. I think I need to make a decision on it, though, since it's currently living in my storage locker and that's apparently not a secure area! Possibly related - we now need to buy a new tent, air mattress, and camping stove. I'm not replacing the suitcase that was stolen.
November goals:
1. Finish the wristers project I started for my brother.
2. Finalize inventory on stash.
3. Drink more eggnog while it's available.
4. No yarn purchases (not responsible for yarn given to me - it's a distinct possibility this month).
