It's been a very long day

It's 2am when I started typing this post.
I fell asleep around 130am.
I woke up at 230am last night and took my night meds.
Then I went back to my bed and... Couldn't sleep. So I've been awake since 230am. I can see sounds. The whole world is spinning. When I woke up I had one hell of a migraine and my hips were screaming. So I asked Pauley for a third of a gummy and a Norco. If I ask for the big one, that's usually all I need to say to explain how bad I feel.
I sat staring at a pile of new clothes we got from the sharing table here in the common room. One of the shirts I think is going to look amazing on her. Its so cute, I'll share a picture of how she looks when she puts it on. She's so cute.
I'm gonna try to get a few new hoodies. I'd really like to get one really big snuggly one or find a really big blankie and I can sew it up into a hoodie. I don't have experience sewing human clothes but I made some very nice outfits for some of the plushies I made years ago. I am actually pretty excited to start playing with fabric again.

What crafty works in progress (WIPs) from 2020 are you “leaving behind” in favor of new projects for 2021? 🧶🎨📝

What’s a work in progress you’re leaving in 2020? Maybe it’s a complicated blanket you put aside a few months ago and just dread picking back up. Or maybe it’s a story you’ve been trying to write but can’t seem to get started.

For me, it’s definitely my temperature blanket. I started cataloguing the high temperature for each day in 2020 and crocheting a row in a color corresponding to a color chart I created. I ended up putting it down around April but swore I would pick it back up “when I had more time,” so I kept track of the temps ...yet I never picked it back up. I think I am gonna leave this blanket in 2020 where it belong. The question remains, what do I do with all the leftover yarn? 🤔🧶

What is a project you started in 2020 but aren’t going to continue working on in 2021? I’d love to know... I can’t be the only one leaving some projects in the dust lol.
