Work, work and very little time to play

It’s inventory time where I work. And that means I got to change hours for a week, oh yeah. Instead of working a late shift it’s really early AM to whenever we get to a stopping place. Doesn’t that sound like fun? (NOT)

No, I’m not counting widgets. My department along with maintenance is doing some major line changes that have to be done before the plant returns to production next Wednesday. Between the change in sleep hours and the long work days I am pretty much done when I get home. Not very conducive to getting any tatting done.

I did get these snowflakes done. I know it’s not the best picture, but I just wanted to sit down and put my feet up, so this is as good as it gets for now. This is just something I came up with because I didn’t think I could follow a pattern and have it make sense. The colorful one is Lizbeth size 20 in Jewels. The other is DMC Cordonnet Special, size 30. The outside round has a strand of Coats Metallic Decorative sewing thread in bright gold added. I was kind of leery about adding it but it went very well. Of course, there was nothing very complicated going on, so we’ll try it again later.

This is my #24 of my 25 Motif Challenge (I think), well, I’m calling it that any way.

Now, I’m going to let my brain take a break. Hopefully we’ll be done tomorrow and get the whole three days for Labor Day weekend. That sounds so wonderful!
