Productivity - 17 days to A-Kon

It was a good and bad day. I wanted to get so much done today, and in reality I did. But nothing I got done was anything I wanted to get done. I stayed up WAY to late last night which caused me to oversleep this morning. And even then, I don't think I got enough sleep. I got the daughter to work and came home to tackle the dishes and cleaning up my work space so I could get started.

I got the dishes done and was faced with cleaning my work area. I was not happy to find it a mess. My loving daughter managed to turn my work table into a disaster area. She is working on a costume just for her.

 This guy is called a Poewk. He is what's called a Wublin from the game "My Singing Monsters". You can read more about him HERE if you'd like. Meanwhile, the kiddo decided that she wants to make her own costume for Project Akon and is going as this guy as a human-ized. She started a mask last night. It's kind of rough at the moment, but as she gets more of the feathers on it, it should begin to look better.

The kiddo, that I really shouldn't call Kiddo because she's 18, but I do anyway, made a mess of my very small work table and didn't really clean up after herself. I found bits of foam, paint everywhere, and she even had the audacity to steal the cat's water glass for cleaning the paint brushes. And I wondered why that cat was waking me up at 7 o'clock this morning wanting water.

Yes, I have a cat that drinks out of a normal glass like everyone else. The cat Miracle is a character. If you stick around, you will probably see me throwing her off my work space from time to time. Right now she's going through a phase where she doesn't want to drink out of the fresh water dish we bought her, nor does she want to eat out of the auto feeder we have for her. The water has to be changed every day and in a cup. Her food has to be in a bowl and it has to be next to the water. It can't be on the floor or she will ignore it.

 I discovered that the cat had been losing a little weight and there were no tell tale signs she had been eating. The other clue was the down right affectionate behavior. The moment I jumped through hoops for the cat, she's not as affectionate anymore. Adorable, yes... But I think she's gone back to plotting my demise.

I cleaned up my work space, got the cat situated and then I had this wave of tired wash over me. I blinked and it was two and a half hours later, my daughter had called three times, and it was time to start dinner. Dinner was meatball subs with a generic salad.

The schedule for tomorrow: Get at least to the point of cutting out the blue and gold Madeline jacket. If I can get it all put together, I will feel even better. If I can get farther than that I will be ahead of myself. Here's to good luck and all those things.
