I’m often asked how I find time to do all that I do. The key for me is to never have down time. Even a 15 min break can net you 1-2 rows on a project. As long as I can fit what I’m working on into my jacket pocket I’ll carry it with me and work on it little by little. I save the night time for bigger projects that have outgrown my pockets.
I relish the down time I get in the office with a few minutes knitting or crocheting. Sometimes I even bring in a drop spindle and spin on breaks. I’ve even been known to knit away while on conference calls, which by the way I think helps me remember more on the call. There’s something about fiber arts that wakes up your brain. Mind you it must be an easy mindless pattern but having my hands fly away somehow controls my ADD and lets me absorb more that goes on around me. Ah ha! I knew I saw an article about this before. At least I’m not the only one.
Anywho! This week my day job had me playing “field tech” and I toured almost all of Western New York without setting foot in the office. But even as a traveling tech I am allowed lunch breaks! Even the cramp confines of a truck can become a knitting parlor once a day!
