So my last day at the 'Boo is July 19th though I am thinking this week end would be better since I wont get vacation time till this time next year.
I will be starting my training on July 20th. sure hope I made the right decision but to late now.

ocd knitting

So I have figured out my problem lately I have a need to cast on projects and actually suffer anxiety when i am almost done. Wont those needles feel unloved if they are naked of my lovely yarns.
Now since most of you only know me via cyber world you dont know that I have actual OCD. Most of my issues tend to deal with food... Hello y am I fat you would like I would be thin with that knuttiness but I am off track now. Due to the OCD I actually knit on a schedule. Full out on a excel spreadsheet checking off each project as I knit on it. Each project gets a day and then I must move on, now since I work sleep crazy hours a day is finished by going to sleep. I started my schedule to help with holiday knitting and now cant stop. This was the plan originally there are seven days in the week day 1 = project 1, day 2 = project 2 etc. with day 6 a cast on day and day 7 a you pick em and the schedule continues as I finish a project it is blacked out. If I dont knit for some reason like well work... I cant move on. Now here is my problem I really want to knit on my shawl tomorrow since its Wed. night knitting night but its a cast on day so I cant unless I cast on something now since I have not touched needles today. So here i sit at 1:45 am about to cast on just so I can do a you pick 'em day on my Wed.
