Overview
Thoughts: Today is going to be a shop day. The weather is supposed to be beautiful and I want to make the most of it! Also, I want to make an attempt at finishing a couple of the jigs so that I can begin making frames. I’ll then try to get some more work done on the Garden Path painting, if I have anymore time/energy at the end of the day.
Yesterday went pretty well. I need to get more sleep, I feel like it is taking forever to get started in the mornings, right now. The gray overcast and short days have not been helping!
Review
Office:
- What Happened?
- Worked on the journal improvements.
- Worked on Taxes.
- What Went Right?
- Made significant changes that I believe will work to improve task completion.
- Lessons Learned:
- Still more to be done. I think it feels a bit cumbersome, which causes me some worry. It is better than before.
Studio:
- What Happened?
- I spent some time looking over garden photos to make sure I was happy with my design.
- Lessons Learned:
- I’m going to move forward with the design elements.
Shop:
- What Happened?
- Repaired damage to miter sled.
- Lessons Learned:
- The repair was “good enough” since it is a shop project and a first try at that. I am slowly learning to deal with good enough. Not everything is a master work and that’s ok. I’m making a tool not an heirloom!
