i'm an early bird too, but lately i'v been bringing the laptop to work with me, i've found some day's i am not able to really get any sewing done but i can have the computer and the board up and just sit down in front of it every so often, sometimes for 10 or 15 minutes, sometimes for 2 minutes, sometimes longer...but if i think i have longer i usually try to get some sewing out instead...i'm never going to get my holiday projects done this year! :(
