What’s everyone doing this weekend? I am (hopefully) relaxing and getting some overdue filing done. I used to be an avid knitter and stopped two years ago… it just didn’t bring me joy. Last weekend I tried it again and I don’t know why I quit. It’s also something to do to pass time that is productive. Drinking to pass time away is what I did a year ago. No more. It’s a hard cycle to break but if I can do it, you can too! 💜

Haha I can imagine that. The brain fogged exhausted frustration when you want to sit down and continue a hobby just to realize that you created so much more work for yourself.

But a knitted hat and a scarf sounds so nice for this time of year depending on where you're located. They're gonna be heckin' appreciative!
