Question from mereljewels”HI Laura,

I see that you knit and spin a lot on deadlines and counting points for those. Does this motivate you a lot or stress you more?

In our local knitting group I organized a challenge for finishing WIPs until the end of the year and a sub-challenge for finishing a sweater – I am participating on both of course, AND I just finished the sweater on time but in the last week I was sooo stressed about this deadline that it bothered me more rather than giving me a push.

(probably it doesn´t help that at work I also have several deadlines:))

So how do you manage that?

Thanks and greetings form Germany. Kata”

 

Leslie is listening to Voyager and is reading The Never Hero. And of course the weekly fluff books.

Laura is listening to First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones.  She is reading Aeronaut’s Windlass by Jim Butcher and Sweet Ruin by Kresley Cole.
