It’s my new modus operandi. It’s actually not new. I’e lived this way without realizing it. I really do work well with clear defined deadlines and clear accountabilitiy. In some ways I work better uner pressure. So, I created a little pressure for myself!

I entered a competition that would force me to make anothersock monkey.

Kirsten Rask of Schmancy ,http://www.schmancytoys.com/in Seattle is holding a contest for the best plushie made inspired by the Wointer Olympics of 2010, http://plushyou.blogspot.com/2010/01/olympic-challenge.html. I’m really excited and I feel like throwing up all at once. I hope I can get the thing done in time. I signed up for the competition just a couple of days ago. What have I gotten into?? It will be challenging. Our names will be randomly paired with a particular sport like figure Skating, Skiing, Opening Ceremonies, Bobsleigh, and *Made UP Sport.

Wish me luck. I’ll keep you posted!
