I don't know what i did at work (besides a lot more physicality than i normally need to apply to a receptionist position) but my wrist is aching Something fierce. Im icing and wrapping it alternately, and in the meantime i can barely lift anything (dinner plate, water bottle) and forget anything that requires repetitive motion. No sewing or knitting or basically anything that involves my hands tonight. (ugly crying emoji) what am i gonna doooooooo ;___;

Gonna have to get creative. Holding the phone to post tjis isn't too bad but it's not pleasant, and it won't last. Boooooo.

Been snuggling the cat and reading patterns since i can't do repetitive motions with ny hands tonight. I forgot i picked up some cotton organdy at CoCo for a cap(s) but when i found a cap pattern, i remembered! I dunno if i want to use the pattern though.

Also read through tje habit shirt and habit again. I could do the habit petticoat soon, but i really need to get the habit shirt done first before i can get started on the waistcoat and jacket. And that leads me to some ruminations!

-what if i cant find the wool i want to use? I know where i have a stash of navy, but hpw many dark items do i really need? I'd really prefer to find tje lighter stuff.

-what colour/fabric waistcoat do i make? Same fabric? Different fabric? If different, what kind? I have more polys than naturals. How tailored will i have to make the waistcoat if i go with something light?

-also linings and jacket skirt facings. What do? My sleeves should be slippy at least, and i could do a fun contrasting skirt lining (tho again, in wjat?)

-because of the class i took, i will be fitting tjis over a quilted petticoat which is already done. Woot! Will need to try on and perhaps make some minor adjustments simce i originally fitted over a linen petticoat. Should be easy.

Well at least tje night doesn't feel totally wasted. This will give my brain somejting tp chew on while i look for the wool and let my wrist heal up.
