I'm seeing my future stitching time dwindling down to nothing for the next 6 weeks - I've just undertaken some online classes through one of the universities. I'm studying to become a certified personal fitness trainer, and I was not anticipating the homework load that has arrived at my house. I'm now in the same boat my h.s. sophmore is in - lots of homework, very little stitching time. The one reward is that over a fairly short course of time, I will be finished, and will be able to turn this into a new career path for myself - if all goes well, and I'm able to get my old brain to absorb some of this information! Right now, it's Exercise Physiology, and Kinesiology for Trainers (I'm still waiting for that book to arrive, and will have two chapters due by this Sunday!).
I'm sorry to be having this pity party, but I'm feeling just a little overwhelmed at the moment, and I can't take much of a break to calm down with stitching. Once I get caught up, I'll feel much better.

Hang in there Nancy! I bet the 6 weeks will fly by. Your new career path sounds exciting! I'm sure you will be very much in demand. Who couldn't use a personal trainer?
One of my "tricks" for getting a little stitching time in is to put in one length of floss per day. Not sure if that will work for you - it takes the right kind of project, etc. but thought I would suggest it anyway.

Thanks for the tip - that is a great idea! I've got a Quaker need to have finished, and that would work perfectly!
Take care, Nancy
6 weeks will be a breeze! Your career path sounds exciting and I know you will be great! Who wouldn't want a personal trainer...wanna come to NY?
When you get a spare moment try stitching for a little bit of time. When I was studying for my accredidation in quality systems, I would study 45 minutes and stitch 15 out of every hour. I got my studying done cause I used the 15 as an incentive. Plus, even though progress on my stitching was slow, I did make progress.
Good luck!
