Total Apathy

You know what I hate? I hate when I look forward to getting out of school so I can work on costumes or what-have-you, and then when I am actually out of school, I decided to do anything and everything other than working on the projects I had planned to work on while I was waiting to get out of school.

Seriously, What's wrong with me? Am I so afraid of being a failure at something that I can never get started?

Usually this is exactly what happens. I end up not doing what I wanted to do because I get hooked on something else (an MMO, video game, whatever). This summer though, it is not apathy that is currently keeping me from my tasks. First, I end up double paying my house note, typically a good thing unless it's not planned for and results in you being broke as a joke for two weeks. Second, I'm coming down with something, probably what the lil dude has. Third, I can't take the lil dude to daycare until I get more money (see point 1) which means I don't have time to do much. Fourth, I have a project for a family member to do, which normally wouldn't be a problem, except for issues one and three.

So for now, I'm still stuck in the dreaming and planning stages with a lot of things. I need to get my act together, get the house in ship shape and get to sewing.

  1. Funding is always a nasty problem. Having no job I sympathize.

    I think if you can't do much with costuming right now you should try to straighten up more. A cleaner working spot is one that is easier to focus and work in. You can take this time off not to play video games and to clean clean clean. I've limited myself this week saying "finish by Friday or everything gets thrown away." I made a deadline for my clean room, because it's cramping my drawing style. It's hard to me to focus artistically because things aren't organized.
