Workbench time never fails to improve me. Today I had hours and hours of it. It was SO GOOD.

SO SO SO GOOD.

Now I need to switch from the necklace work that I go deep into when I'm sort of re-assembling myself and getting centered, because there are dragon pendants that need doing, plus this panjas bracelet thingie that I think I have got figured out now, so I need to finish the prototype. These things can be done, because both yesterday and today I had hours and hours of "sink deep into this necklace work" and also hot baths, which is a combo that is very powerful in how it improves my day.

(Wow. When I come out of necklace-work-space, my words do take a while to get back into linear thought rather than a fugue or some series of motifs or whatever it is when I'm composing four linear superimpositions in a long four-loop necklace. My eyes keep going to the previous paragraph and wanting to rearrange things with attention to enjambments and rhythmic structure.)

Oh right, I should mention that these necklaces are full of cats.

You can't beat sitting down and doing the thing for skill improvement.

Sounds like geometric thinking.

Things like that are why I love repeating-interlocking poetic forms, like setinas.
