People often go on about how they are either starters or finishers. Starters end up with a ton of uncompleted projects. Finishers often don't cast on the next thing until the current project is through.
I realized something very important about myself as I sorted through my Excel document of WIPs. I am neither a starter or a finisher. Well, I'm obviously not a finisher. But I'm a tweener. My favorite part of a project is the meat of it, and I like getting to that point with lots of things so I have something to pick from; Perhaps earlier in my knitting career I was a starter, but no more. I want to know where I am with all my projects (and where all my projects are, which is sometimes another story). I do get in finishing moods, which I take advantage of.
So I'm trying to accept myself. I have long term projects that I have no intention of single-mindedly finishing. I have other things that will truck slowly for the finish line, and others that I will churn out in no time flat. This is my knitting brood.

Uh oh! I have thirteen projects! I need to cast something else on, STAT. Actually, not all of these have been cast-on, so maybe I'm okay. #10 and #7 are still in the planning stages. By that time that happens, I'm sure I'll come up with something else.
