Very Tired.
Came home at 3. Put up my square. Mom's very hyper.
Running in her chair in nursing home. Got to go back.
Today's square.

Very Tired.
I spent 12 hours at nursing home. I was hoping someone would visit but
no one came. I am exhausted.
Today's square.

Well, I suck!
I have been going crazy!
I could have never foreseen how busy and crazy I would get while taking care of mom. I made all these big plans assuming I would have time to work on them while at nursing home.
But mom has required my undivided attention full time. That's ok by me!
Now I have way too much to get done at home plus all my crochet projects and plans.
I still have to cook dinner, do laundry and other assorted things.
It has really gotten to me.
Tonight I am dropping all that pressure and I will make an updated list and just do the best I can with it all.
Projects
Need a baby hat in lavender. Soon.
Got to mail it to Chesapeake. Completed and mailed.
Need to make these small hats that look like a kippah.
I hope I can find the correct yarn or thread.
Would like to have 5 made. I am having problems
creating this hat! I am so frustrated! I have
tried to find a yarn that will work
but no such luck!
Having trouble finding the correct yarn so I will make a prototype and start there.
Need to make Chris's hat.
He requested 3 specific colors. I haven't
even started it! Will try to tomorrow.
HAVE NOT started it. Feel so bad about it!
Need a pink hat for a 3 year old with crocheted flowers on it. Completed!
Need to finish a small dark pink hat.
Need another lavender baby hat for a newborn with a big head. Completed.
Need to make a pattern for a St Patrick's Day hat. Soon. Completed.
We have a new nurse with a huge pile of dreads. I want to make
him a professional looking hat for work just in case he has to cover them! I
have completed one for him but need another one. Ugh!
Another birthday hat for activities director. I still haven't completed
the second hat. I'm going to save it for a xmas gift.
I am cringing as I write this! If you know Drew, "The Crochet Dude" he
has a new charity project. A gorgeous square pattern
that has a pretty carnation in the center. I want to make One Hundred of them!
I'm so stupid to wish that! Someone else has already made almost a hundred! She was sick in bed for two days! I have only five made.
I need to make 2 headbands with flowers for 2 nurses!
I have almost finished one!
Yes! Shoot Me! Like I have time! It takes 48 to make an afghan and I
want to make 48 in specific colors for one afghan and then I am
using leftover random colors to make the others. I will post them
as soon as they are done! I mean I will post them as I complete them!
NEVER going to happen!
The 2 nurses who I am making headbands for are having birthdays the first week of May. My birthday is the first week of May too.
I'm going to use the 2 headbands as gifts. I am making them a hat plus another headband.
THEN
Mom's day shift nurse, her birthday is the first week of May too! I haven't even finished her Christmas afghan! Now I need to make her a birthday gift too!
I also need to complete a hat for my Hat Pattern Blog! I try to put up one a month and I haven't done that!
AND
I have this secret mystery project that has to be completed by July 1st! I have been working on it since January! Ugh!
Here is my square for the day.

I remembered ONE more project I need to complete! Mom's 7 to 5 nurse! She is the best and here it is April and I still haven't completed her Christmas present! Double Ugh!
Here is my square for today.

Crochet! Crochet! Crochet Projects!
I have been going crazy!
Just way too much to get done at home and I'm not getting any crochet time at nursing home and I'm lucky if I can squeeze in thirty minutes at home. I have been feeling so overwhelmed!
Here is the last list I made.
I need to review it.

Running Behind Tonight!
I am so far behind tonight! Tomorrow is mom's 1 year anniversary at the nursing home! I'm making it a positive event! I'm going downstairs and make a cake to take to nursing home tomorrow! I'm celebrating!
Here is my square of the day.

Hats!
I finally finished another hat.
A very long dread hat.
He keeps his dreads piled up high on his head but staff seems to think there is a sanitary issue going on here when bending over to care for patients! I had to knock out a quick hat to cover his amazing locks to protect them from scissors ever coming close to them!
I took this pic and then completed it at nursing home. I’m working on a short one now. Gotta love this pattern.

Finally Catching Up On Stuff!
I am tired. I got so far behind on things at home. The nursing home sucks up my time.
I finally finished my pink hat.
Front view.
Side view.
Here is the flower I made for the hat.
Lion Brand free pattern.
I hope she likes it.
