Reason 1: I didn't pick up the thread from Lacis because I didn't know how much I needed. Then they didn't have any, and then I had to go to pick it up from their warehouse.
Reason 2: I had to wait for W to open to buy a Wii system for z and a's dad's birthday coming up (okay, it's a present for the whole family).
I was told to go at 6 am for them to open at 7am...I did too plop down on the ground and work on Lyra sort of uninterrupted for an hour. ...the nice thing is that I was the only one there, the bad thing was that the electronic dept. manager didn't realize that they were offering it in the flyer for sale, so she sold all her Wii consoles the day before. I did make her call another store who actually knew about the sale, so at 7:15, I raced down there and am now a proud owner of Wii...Reason 2A: Well, I had to play Wii, didn't I? And it's not like you can knit and play...so, Wii won.
Reason 3: We've got too much junk. So I had a yard sale. See, here's my Lyra on a stack of clothes...the sale was okay.
We unloaded a few baby items, but we've still got tons of stuff left...ack! I've got to have another sale?!
hmmm...what else? well. Life. Kids. all that stuff. Anyway, I'll post again when I'm finished.

These are all really bad excuses, you know :)
It's the taking part that counts. (Or so my phys ed teachers always tried to convince me on sports day every year when I failed to win --- errrr - anything.)
I'm sure your Lyra will be gold medal worthy when it is finished.
