Challenge #04514-L130: Craft Chaos Chamber

The one thing about being a space trucker is you took on projects to pass the time from place to place. Heh, but I seem to have taken on too many at once. You've ridden with me quite a while, and while I don't mind being a free taxi, you think you can help me finish some? -- Anon Guest

Sanity Projects exist to help an idle mind and idle hands stay out of trouble. The description is right there on the tin. It is a project to keep someone sane. They come out a lot when people have a job that involves days on end of stultifying boredom.

After all, there's only so long anyone can read, watch entertainment, or play games. Sooner or later, you just gotta do something. And some? Like me? Don't know what we can or can't do.

So I picked up a lot of ideas. A lot of tools. A lot of material resources. That's why there's a crammed craft room in the habitat.

Work has gotten so boring lately the human has taken to knitting to alleviate it. -- Anon Guest

The best thing for a Ships' Human to have is a boring job. That's what the old hands tend to say and the younger ones tend to puzzle about. Time tells all of the truth.

Human Dee was just starting to appreciate having a dull job. On the other hand, they still needed something to do.

The scientists were as safe as they could

Challenge #01986-E162: Inner Beautification

Yarn Bombing. Putting hand made yarn stuff in public places. Once done to stop authorities from removing much needed bus stop/shelter. Weird but true. Put your own spin on this. -- Anon Guest

[AN: I could not find any instance of yarn bombing as an avenue of protest. It's mostly a wasteful form of gentrified graffiti.]

As a child of the depression, Cynthia hated waste. She never got more than she needed in the first place, and did her utmost to

For those of you who have been wondering what I was up to when I was forbidden to write for three and a bit weeks…

This is it.

I’ve
had this flat-pack dollhouse in my SABLE [Stash Above and Beyond Life Expectancy] for some years [something over eight years FYI]. And I
figured that it would at least keep me distracted for my enforced
time-out.

Distracted, yes. Calm, no. Happy? HELL no. This is
possibly the most INFURIATING hobby I
