Focusing

I'm finding it very hard to focus lately. It seems that winter has gone on forever. I am wrapped up in the Olympics and several on-line fan-fic novels that I find as hard to put down as a good paper copy novel. And I'm just not inspired to catch up with my friends on other chat boards. That's really not good. I don't like losing contact with friends...I'm just relatively uninspired by things outside my immediate sphere. I know I'll crack out of this, but I also know that I'll end up skipping some notices and messages when I finally get back into my standard groove. What I really need is a vacation, and that's something that I won't get until Bead & Button in June. I have a LONG time of work still to go.

I did order my Ferric Nitrate on Wednesday, as I mentioned in my blog yesterday. That's going to allow me to etch silver. So I do have that project ongoing. I need to pick up my needle again and continue with my embroidery on my cloak. That's probably going to happen after the Olympics wraps up on Sunday. I do need to get my glass grinder on order. I don't need it immediately, but I do need it. I have some projects pending that require some fused glass and the glass has to be a precise size and shape, requiring grinding to get there. I know I'll get back into my creative groove and that this is just my winter doldrums....but sometimes that can be a deep pit to crawl out of. It'll happen though - I have every confidence.
