Still raining
After a visit to my doctor this morning I'm going to try and focus more on what I actually am achieving, because I'm doing pretty well. OK, I'm only doing nano pretty well, but that is an all consuming task and everyone who's more or less on target with it has a big list of things that are going down the plughole while they live in their heads or at their keyboards for the entire month of November. And I've written 32239 words, which is pretty damn good, so fuck it if I lose the plot every Thursday/Friday. I went to qigong this morning and have dozed through most of the rest of the day, apart from getting two thousand words down.

Now I can remember her saying several times that making 3D felt objects was tricky and needed practise to get the feel of it right, so to start small.
The others did:

If I'd managed to keep the shape of it, it would have fitted Hagrid.
Ah well.
Sweet dreams xx
