susandennisI clicked on my friends list about 2 hours ago and just now came out of it. spiffikins started it by mentioning enneagram which I had never heard of but appears to be this century's personality test. So, of course, I had to go find a test and then take it and discover that I had to pay for the results. Nope. So then I had to find another one... Long, boring story made shorter. I'm a 5. The description is exactly like what was described in the findings of last century's personality test. The me of me is me. For sure.
Then I got an email from the knitters guild of seattle. I have known about them for years but never got involved (see personality test in paragraph above) this weekend went to see if there were any fiber shows coming up so I went to their website and then signed up for their newsletter.
And then discovered there's a group/website called Loose Ends that takes the unfinished projects of dead people, finishes them and returns the finished projects to the dead persons' loved ones. Heck, I can do that! I once had a business doing that. So I signed up. And joined their group on Ralvery.
And then I discovered there's a group/blog near here (Capital Hill, Seattle) that donates knitted and crocheted hats, gloves, scarves - I can make those. So I joined their group on Ralvery.
And now it is 9:30 and I'm still basically just back from the pool. I need a shower, my bed's not made and I'm not dressed and Julio has licked his bowl clean and wants more.
So I think I'll get up and get to work on those little projects.

I'm a terrible completer/finisher (belbin) not good for a crocheter.
