Hello to all members, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

Note: I'm just jumping in for [personal profile] badly_knitted while she is having computer problems. Therefore the daily check-in posts might lack certain details. Please, bear with me, and happy crafting!

Every little bit is a step further towards completion!

Thank you for jumping in to help!

It's very much appreciated while I suffer intermittent technical issues.

It's been raining on and off all day, so I've mostly stayed indoors editing fanfic, except for putting the dustbin out, when I quickly deadheaded the buddleia in the front garden and cut a few bits off the hedge that were sticking out a long way. Also met a lovely young lady and her little dog, named Pumpkin. I didn't get the lady's name. She took a few plant pots because she wants to try growing herbs, so that was a nice little interlude.

On the computer front, my friend is going to see if he can get me a proper laptop on Saturday. He knows my preferences and my budget, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed but not counting my chickens yet. All will depend on whether any of the laptops I'm interested in are actually available. Ideally I want 1TB memory, or failing that, 512GB, although I'll take 250GB if that's all there is and then try to save for something better at a later date. With things as they are, I might not have the luxury of being choosy. I'm keeping a close eye on my free space on this one though, ready to delete more if it dips into the red zone.

Thanks. They're so expensive now too, if you can even find one that's suitable. A lot aren't.

I got 2 or so more rows done on my latch hook today at my OT session. (I go to OT twice a week. OT is occupational therapy).

I may start another latch hook project or other craft project this coming weekend. I haven't fully decided yet.

Well done!

Funnily enough, my sister is an occupational therapist! I hope you find your sessions helpful.
