I suspected I would have a boring workday ahead me so I came prepared with a knit I’ve been saving for this very occasion.
It’s not often I have a day where I have long periods, meaning several minutes, between cycles to wait but when I do I try to have a knit project with me so I don’t go mad. I’m the type of person that gets very restless if I have to wait more than a minute and have nothing to do to pass that time. I much rather work several machines at once so there isn’t any spare time at all, days go lot smoother for me that way. I usually get my 10 000 steps in before 5pm.
I’ve had this Icelandic inspired sweater in the works for months because it’s my designated ”work sweater project” and I haven’t knitted it at all at home.
Today I finished the body and started both the sleeves. Now it’s smooth sailing for next time I need something to occupy my hands at works, though it looks like I won’t need it for a long time.
I play video games and fish.
I have a restless mind. But fortunately/unfortunately, my job has a queue of about 25 things at any time that I can choose to do. The Hard part is picking one and doing it. Sometimes there are conflicting priorities which I have to navigate around.
I mainly work from home (computer based job). I have a treadmill/rowing machine and stationary bike about 10 feet away for when I need to stretch my limbs a little.
