Valefor will have to wait a bit.
Each year as AN approaches, I get more and more stressed out to get something finished in time. Yesterday I took a good look at the calendar and realized that there's no realistic change that I'll finish my Valefor costume in time for AN. Even if I drastically reduced the amount of detail I had planned to do, there's just no way I could get the bare minimum done in 2 weeks with work.
Each weeknight I have 3 precious hours when I get home to do stuff. Whether it's grocery shopping, cooking a nice dinner, catching up on a TV show (I seriously need to find less shows that are an hour long >_> ), raiding, or exercising. It's a rare occasion that I do more than 2 a night, esepecially with my spontaneous urge to try out new recipies. My weekends have been pretty busy too. How am I supposed to find time to work on my costume too?!
I've noticed lately that I've been skimping on things in order to make time for this, and I don't like doing that. I kept wanting to see people and invite them over to hang out, but couldn't if I dreamed on getting this costume done. Now at least with my regretful acceptance of the truth, maybe I could do that if everyone is not already desperately trying to get their own costume(s) done.
With this extra time, hopefully I won't just procrastinate again. It's been hard to find motivation for finished (when I do find time to work on it), but hopefully I can push myself to complete it. I do still plan on still getting this sucker done, with the next projected implementation date being the Toronto Island picnic, if it's not while I'm out of the country.
