Seems to be a bit of a theme so far this year. I know that come Monday I've been feeling pretty beat when I get home from work. February is a really busy month (January genuinely is own only slow month) and clients always are slow to give us the information we need in a timely fashion they are still on holiday timetable. This means lots of followup holding cover for them until they get their act into gear which is lots of extra work for me. We are also looking for new office accomodation. Our head office wants us to find serviced offices which in Adelaide is slim pickings, but the latest place is pretty good and cuts both my and the bosses commute by about 20 minutes at least. We are waiting on head office's decision but all we are hearing is when we are going to put someone else on which until we get a new office isn't going to happen.
This boss is having his appraisal soon so hopefully he can push the new office situation in talks as we need to jump on it soon if we get the office we want.
I have been doing a bit of sewing (well supervising sewing) Mo has wanted to make a T-shirt which she did with not too much interference from me (she told me I wasn't allowed to take over) and she made two bucket hats for herself and her boyfriend for the return to Uni tomorrow. She did a great job on the projects and I only really helped when there was unpicking to be done.
I got the panel that goes with the latest Homespun Block of the Month and have started doing the embroidery. I don't see me making the quilt unless it is just the embroidery blocks, but I've had fun doing a bit of embroidery this last week as we have had a heat wave with a week of 38+ temps and it was too hot to crochet.
Its back to crochet this week, I have Mo's bed runner to finish but it also means a trip to the yarn shop soon as I have run out of white and will need more of all the colours to finish it. It is pretty easy compared to the Persian Tile so it shouldn't take long to finish once I have more supplies.
Since the last time I blogged I finished my Persian Tile blanket.
That's it for me today. Head to Kate's for the round up.

Sounds like a lot of hurry up and wait on the office front at the moment. Fingers crossed that all gets resolved in the next couple of weeks. Your Persian Tile blanket is gorgeous! Love all the vibrant colors. Hope you get in more stitching time this week and don't have to come home so tired.
Persian tile blanket is gorgeous!
