The husband is laughing at me for playing "let's make a deal" with a 3-yr-old. I say glitter nail polish is a small price to pay to get her to not fight having her hair brushed.

Progress today, while the monsters are being cooperative:
* folded and put away a papasan chair's worth of kids' laundry
* reorganized kitchen towels and hot pads and stuff
* 2 additional loads of laundry
* fed kids
* loaded dishwasher
* mended By's slippers
* mended an afghan that had gotten snagged
* managed lunch for me (before 3 or 4 pm!)
Which used up the morning and a fair bit of energy, but did not diminish the Project ADHD that I'm trying to resist. Because I need a new project like I need a hole in my head, no matter how tempting and shiny.

Spent naptime catching up in Ravelry, which is the perfectly logical thing to do when you're trying to resist starting 20 projects Right Now!
Am attempting to channel my crafty ADHD into blocks for a long-neglected afghan --hoping that it's been long enough that it'll *feel* like a new project.
Yeah, my hindbrain thinks it's a scam, too, but that's all it's getting.
Of course, I will at some point need to find the rest of the afghan. All I've got now is a box of border yarn and blocks.

Probably contributing to the delinquency of a minor....
Picture a blonde 3-yr-old in a bright red "Cars" footie sleeper, trying to do the stripper dances from Blues Brothers 2000. It's probably good that we don't have a pole in the living room.
