I’m feeling overwhelmed. I imagine I’ll feel this way, off and on, until things are turned in for Crown’s A&S.
At last it comes, this Crushing wave of overwhelm Immobilizing
Dashed upon the rocky shore The sea will always retreat.
I’m trying to focus on just the next step, but I do want to break down the rest of the uwagi lining so I can keep the next step straight.
Thread mark the migoro. Complete.
Pin okumi to migoro. Essentially done. I have them pinned on with the pins running horizontally on top of the stitch line. I’ll re-pin vertically in sections as I sew.
Sew okumi. One is attached. I’ll finish the other (which is fully prepped and re-pinned) before I quit for the night.
I guess this means the collar and sleeves get squished together into the same day.
So tomorrow will be Press all seams. Mark the collar. Pin the collar. Stitch the collar on. Mark the sleeves. Sew the sleeves. Pin the sleeves. Stitch the sleeves on.
I did manage to finish something else though. My documentation had one last step, the conclusion. I had a list of things I’d learned as an outline. I thought of a line that I wanted to include, so I popped into the document and before I knew it, my list had transformed into a handful of paragraphs and I had a mostly done paper. And it’s actually calming my overwhelm a little. I know I could turn my documentation in right now and it would be just fine. I’ll still go over it one last time after I update the uwagi section, but it’s essentially done. Wow.
