Blah, I feel like everything is standing still
Well, this weekend was surely a sterling example of time mismanagement... Saturday was basically a total wash (in terms of productivity, that is--the recipe party was good, and indeed, party-related things are what I did manage to get done!). I was quite impressed by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jg26's sculpting abilities. I would suspect the same skills are needed as for drawing, but I'm scared of the third dimension, so he seems extra-talented to me. :)
Sunday I slept really late, and it took me forever to remember quite where I was and what had happened. Uggh. But then I got off my butt and got stuff done, including working out and picking up some really pretty fabric for kiddie quilts. The store I went to had so many neat prints... I just need an ironing board and then I'll be able to get started with the sewing. After that I felt crafty (and sleepy) and so I relaxed and did a little work on an evil little cross-stitch pattern I haven't worked on in 2 years. Slight but visible progress was duly made. (Kind of a nice break from other important projects that are currently at a standstill, thanks to my landlady and buyer's agent and mortgage guy not calling me back. Hmmm, I guess I'll just sulk and read![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)

Good news: I'm definitely doing better with the household stuff--the weekend cleanup on Sunday night was a lot quicker than usual. I just read a bunch of articles at organizedhome.com that were pretty good. I just loved the idea of a "launch pad" where stuff to be taken with you is assembled--right now I use my couch for that. :b The other thing I liked is the penicillin approach to decluttering, where you start with one area to always be kept clean and then add more.

aww... shucks, thanks
The third dimension is easy... I find it easier than trying to imply a 3rd on a 2D (ie shadowing, etc).
Seeing those inspired me to sculpt a dolphin pen for blue on sunday.
