First off, my understanding with your dealing with your Mom's ALZ - DH's aunt is suffering with this and we see the turmoil.
2nd, I too have been in a "funk" for a couple weeks - today I just told myself - Self - you are going to do something!
So I pulled the rag quilt blocks off the design board and started sewing. Now all I have to do is clip and it's done! Wheeeee.
Next I want to work on some bookmarks I am making for friends for Christmas. They are small so will go fast and I will feel like I have accomplished something. Maybe you can find a small project that goes quickly. Sometimes, it's harder to start than to do.
Good Luck! :) {{HUGS}
