He made me sit down with a pencil and paper and list everything I have started and not finished.......
So, with that being said.....I have 6 quilts started in various stages, 11 Christmas ornaments started in various stages, 4 cross stitch projects in various stages, 11 safety pin beaded watches (got all the stuff haven't started yet), a quilted table runner and 4 matching placemats kit, and now I want to start a crochet project. (In my defense I have the yarn already)!
Is this a sickness? Do I need intervention? He was being cute, but it did make me stop and think that maybe I need to focus on finishing things!
Anyone else have this problem?
I don't mean to open up a can of worms, but....why in the world would he want you to make that list in the first place??! You know that you know what you have already. It's part of being a creative person. Yes, it's our own form of ADD. One thing is we never get bored or find ourselves with nothing to do. I do the same thing. I get a brain storm to take out the yarn and a hook and start something. Or I take out the scrapbooking and work on that for a while. I may not finish it, but I go through the process and satisfy that need at the moment. It hurts no one.
Just had to vent.
