I think for me a part of it is a lot of things not worked out yet, If I had more of a clue I could dismiss some of them as being unrealistic to even start and free up some time.

Maybe you should start with the things you know you can do.

There might be some kind of logic to my approach, but hell if I know what it is. for example I am trying to work on a beaded emblem as part of a costume, it's tedious, time consuming and I haven't done anything like this since I was in school in the early 80's but for some reason it has reason to the top as something that is important for me to do.

I got to just flow with things some times and just do them because I feel a need.

G'morning, Fishy, Joel...

(pours coffee into her (t)rusty unbreakable mug, pours a dollop of makers in to "warm the soul"...)

This *is* the weekend... or has been for a few days already. Were goin' camping up in Yosemite but too much around the house... which is good, as I would rather sacrifice this one than one on labor day... >>grins<<

Oh, newz... think I may have my roomie, Shelli, goin' to BRC this year (She'll need to take a stack of days without pay to do it, tho...) . So now I gotta get 'hold of our accordian maker, see if he'll do the playa-proof one. Meebee later.

Mmmm... good coffee!! Did we switch roasters? Seems a bit... I don't know... but it sure is good!!
