I will NOT be defeated !

I have now started again from scratch on the fingerless mitts for the third time. Not counting when I ripped off some 20 rows or so because my increases looked like crap. On the plus side, I know master three different types of increases. It's so cold outside today I had to bribe myself to get the laundry hanging : one basket of wet laundry put on the line = three or four rows to get the blood circulating again in my fingers. And some surfing on Ravelry kept me motivated. Thanks so much folks for mentioning that site. Or not so much for making me add yet some more projects to my evergrowing list of SIWTM (Stuff I Want To Make).
Right now, I've got some motivation to bake, so I'll try to finish some more Plätzchen, then maybe I'll sew some more. Maybe. My energy levels are quite low right now, everything has been sucked away by work. And my next day off is Christmas day. My last one was last Sunday, and we had some friends staying over. Ouch. I think that explain the somewhat random babble you've just read and the lack of concrete update.
