Crisis Mode....

A few days ago, several of my Twitter/online quilting friends on and I started commiserating about how far behind we are on our holiday preparations and how 'stuck' we are feeling in trying to "get a move on it" (as my mother says). Yeah I know... we should have all been working instead of complaining but ... such as life.

 We have been calling ourselves, the 'Holiday Panic Crew."

This year, I seem to be waaaay behind in my holiday preparations.... I think partly because I now have 2 kids at home during the day, so I am busy with them and their various activities, homeschool work, etc. I also seem to be a little "frozen", not able to quite muster up the 'umphf' I need to "get a move on it."

But the time has come, and I am now switching in to CRISIS MODE!!!

Panic has set in and I am feeling a little desparate to get done!!!!!!

Luckily, I have been able to finish some of my projects...

A knitted hat.....(which Nature Boy helped me model though it is NOT for him)...

A kidlet for a little kid......

And then there are the ongoing projects.......

..... like the hat that has been ripped out and re-started (using a different pattern!)...

.....and the project that was going full tilt last week, but hit a few glitches (thanks to Kris Poor who helped resolve those glitches!!!) but I have been avoiding it ever since....

Crises like these lead to even more messes in my sewing room!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

But the temperature in this part of upstate NY is absolutely frigid!!!!!

And lucky for this crisis, I will be inside this weekend trying to dig myself out of it!!!!!

 It should probably say, "Wacko Lisa"!

Hope your weekend is panic-less!!!!!
