To sew or not to sew

In crocheting, when you make a mistake or change your design midway, I have heard the phrase used that you frog it. Rip it rip it "ribbit" out. I had nearly 18 or 20 rows done on the QOV and decided I hated it so I tore it apart. I have spent the last day and a half getting back on track....well the track is there but I'm not sure I'm on the right train!  I didn't want a preset pattern as I thought it would stress me out, instead doing a design as you go, it's basically strips and really, how can you go wrong? Well you can and I've managed to do it but what I'm finding is that I'm having fun. I'm enjoying this especially as it is for a worthy cause.

This week starts choir rehearsals and I've really debated about whether to start up again or not. My singing ability has decreased this last year and I've just really seriously considered enjoying the music as a bystander this year. In the end, I've decided to give it til Christmas. If by then I'm disenchanted, then I will cease.

This week also will see me sign papers for new employment. I'm nervous, excited, scared, stressed, etc. Name an emoji and it would apply!

I have six days to read three library books. I was weaning myself off but my mother shared two good ones with me. Arg!

So, really, I need to sew. It's therapy!
