    All I can do is take care of myself and wait...
    Meanwhile I have learned to embroider. My mother is one of those people who has EVERYTHING you need. When I approached her and asked if she had something to embroider she said "of course I have. Search in that drawer." And ta-dah! a couple of videos later I was embroidering.

    These are AMAZING!! I love the Slytherin one! How long did it take you to learn? I took up knitting for all of 1 week before I gave up because it's a slow moving process.

    Thank you!! <3 It only took me a few minutes to understand how the magic needle was used. Then it's a matter of improving prolixity.
    It's not the classic or traditional embroidery, and it seems much easier to me.

    Knitting is something that costs at first but with time you gain a lot of speed. And if you're wrong, nothing happens because it can be undone!
    Did you try crocheting or loom weaving?

    I've tried crocheting but I didnt like it. What is loom weaving? Does it take time as well?

    How long did it take you to embroider those two HP houses?

    I completely forgot to answer you, sorry.
    I only take one day each. They're small and the embroidery is simple and also fast!

    Weaving with a loom isn't very complicated, you just have to pay close attention to make it look good. Depending on the shape of the loom it's woven in a different way.

    I am working. Outside of work hours I try to study and be distracted by games, although I must control myself, because I have a big addiction to games

    At first I thought that due to having a lot of free time I will read a great number of books but I was wrong having no ability to walk where I want worsened my motivation to learn new information. Thus I got back to playing computer games At the moment it is CS GO. I dream of becoming a pro gamer one day as CS GO pro gamers can get really great awards at different competitions provided they win of course so currently I am doing different courses to improve my gaming skills and buying different skins like Kawaii skin set at Skin Club (you need an account to see links) to make my gaming experience better.

    I stop paying attention to this thread for a week and see people talking about weaving! I haven't done much since lockdown started, but it's something I enjoy!

    I have been gaining weight since working from home and trying to force myself to start exercising.
    Started by watching those before and after videos on youtube, hoping to find some motivation but I always come up with 101 excuses not to exercise
