Today was the last day of the Belvidere Christmas rush.
I feel myself going down like a tree. (At 9:30!)
I've enjoyed actually *having* holiday things to go to, having new friends from work and so-on, but I think I've been shortchanged on sleep, introvert time, and water like whoa for a while now.
Tomorrow I will probably be a little selfish, or maybe Monday I will, though the family's all home, and SPIN. Start a new knitting project just for me, now the sweater for my god-daughter is drying.
(It's not getting to her by Christmas. Which is fine, her parents aren't together anymore, and I'm pretty sure her birthday last month was a private war gift-off. It may be better as a follow-up to all the toys, at some remove.)
I got some poems sent out today.
I'm just feeling sick about Duotrope taking their public search away starting in January, which is NOT HELPFUL in psyching myself up to look for markets, but c'est la vie, dou shiyo mo nai yo, what can you do about such things?
I made this falling-star Calcifer yarn, and it pleases me:
Porthaven Marshes
It has bamboo streaks like the multicolored star-trails in the anime, which you can see better in some of the photos at the shop listing there. This photo is a bit rosy, it's quite dark, really, except for the light parts...
