Always finish what you started

I'm really bad at that - the proof can be found in my half-undecorated Christmas tree, the small pile of Christmas cards that needed new addresses and ended up never being sent out, and, until last night, an unfinished knit scarf. This scarf was the first thing I'd started knitting a couple of months ago - my learning project of sorts (though they all teach me something, but whatever). I became unhappy with it pretty quickly, but the thought of unravelling it was so discouraging, and knowing myself, I figured if I started over, I'd never get it done.

Well, I was wrong. Maybe there's a lesson here somewhere: in some instances, starting over just might be a better thing to do than to pick up where one left off! Now I feel much better about getting going on a couple of new projects I've wanted to get going (knitting wise).

Not much this weekend. Today's dance classes again, but we lost part of my daughter's outfit, and I'm seriously thinking of skipping. I know. Bad mom. Then we have to buy my mom's birthday gift, and meet up with the rest of the clan for dinner tomorrow night to celebrate.

As always, I'm hoping to get some cleaning done, but no formal list this weekend... I'm testing to see which method works best.
