Who's job is easier?

 His.

This is tedious work to me.  Listing small linens for a quick inventory, adding a note to each chart of design size.  Most show the stitch count within the chart, in a bag that fits tighter than my BAP (big ass panties).  

Always a monogamous stitcher, now I am wanting other projects kitted, ready for a serious relationship.  May only be one date, may lead to an engagement, or end in divorce (or cremation).  Choosing a linen takes more time than completing a sampler.  I won't cut into a larger piece, ever, so this stash review was necessary.   A dozen charts have yellow tags noting linen size to kit tomorrow.  Maybe these extra trays will be too distracting!

 After an 18 hour back surgery over a year ago, Scott developed drop-foot and is wearing a rigid brace from foot to above knee.  Obvious in his walk, bending to reach floor is a struggle.  He appears to be in pain, but isn't, it's the restriction making it appear so.  He uses a short scaffold to reach ceiling, and as he turned to talk, one locked wheel wasn't enough and it rolled and started to fold.  Thank God the back of his head missed the pipe legs extending above the workbench went he fell backward.  He is bruised, but ok.  

Stay safe, be careful, thanks for visiting.

I am too fickle to kit anything in advance.... I have a horrible time choosing linen and, of course, often rely on the called-for, most often regretting my choices too late (even called-for choices). But I do have many projects kitted - just keep changing my mind. It sounds like Scott has been through a lot...thankfully the latest fall didn't add any other long-term injuries. ~Robin~

I have a few projects kitted and ready to go, just have not decided if I should start even another one. Have 6 going right now that I rotate. Janice

Hope you clear the decks with your project decisions. Prayers that Scott will have no untoward effects from that fall...what a guy to tackle that job under his circumstances.
TGIF and hopefully you both can have an uneventful and relaxing weekend.
