Warning: I’m a crabby lady is this post. It’s one of those days.
Today I took the day off to catch up on life. I have things haunting me and I’m in desperate need to mark some things off my to-do list. The morning started off right with e-mail catch up. I was able to empty my entire inbox, which is crazy considering how it looked last night. Instead of feeling extremely excited and accomplished, I’m feeling a bit off and I’m whinning.
I’ve spent the last couple hours curing at my fabric for my quilting adventure. I had a major scare this morning when I was taking my fabric out of the washing machine and the edges were a frayed mess. I panicked, looked to my sewing genius friend for advice and all was well. Silly me…all I had to do was trim off the frayed pieces…duh!
I then took on the daunting task of ironing all the pieces of fabric. I HATE ironing as much as I hate peas! I think it has to do with my perfectionist attitude and how I can never seem to get out all the wrinkles. Boo! So the fabric is finally ironed and it’s now hanging to keep the wrinkles from reoccurring. The stacks seem to be staring me down and telling me to get started on my quilting project, but I’m terrified I’m going to ruin the fabric when I start cutting the pieces out. So today…I’ll just look at all the fabric hanging nicely.
I should be taking advantage of this free day I have created for myself, but all I want to do is curl up with a book/magazine and watch the hours of the day tick away. I’m in a Debbie Downer kind of mood and even though I’ve marked two things off my list, I’m not happy. I blame the weather for teasing me into the cheery spring mood and then magically disappearing and shoving winter right back into my face. Weather…I hate you!
What do you do to get through a shitty day?
