Let's try this again, shall we?

I am struggling at work, and need a new creative outlet, so here goes. I make no promises-- to myself or anyone who may possibly stumble by and read-- about how often I intend to make entries here.

Conversation I had with Hubby this morning, after I got 6 hours of sleep, and have been up for more than 2, and he is still in bed:

me: Time off in my time bank at work is a dangerous thing.
Hubs: I bet
me: All I want is to climb into that warm bed with you, and not move for the rest of the day.
Hubs: I'm sorry
me: that would be rather irresponsible of me, wouldn't it?
Hubs: ... yeah, kinda.
me: .... and that's a bad thing, right?
Hubs: YES!
me: .... sigh......


Sadly, I am still trying to talk myself in to going to work today. I have the time off, so it's not like I will be penalized for taking it. I just won't have it to use later. If I use it all up right now, on the assumption that there won't be a 'later' to use it, it becomes self-fulfilling prophecy, and there really won't be a 'later' to use it, and I will have no one but myself to blame. At the same time, what if there really isn't a later, and I didn't use it, and I lose it?

In other news: I have finished a crocheted scarf for my sister, other than weaving in the ends, and intend to get it mailed out by this weekend. I am down to the last 6 squares of a granny square blanket for The Baby, which feels like almost done, but really really isn't. I still have to sew it all together, then crochet the border, and since it's really to big to take to work with me, it will be slower going than the squares.

Wish me luck, I think I've talked myself in to go to work. Now I just need to find some yarn to take with me...
