Sorry to hear about the sunburn! I recommend dousing yourself in Noxzema. You'll smell like cloves but that stuff is magic.
I made a spreadsheet of all of my cross stitch unfinished objects that I can think of, and sorted them by "joy quotient" and then by effort remaining. Ta dahh! I have prioritized my backlog.
I gave each UFO two numbers from 1-10: How satisfying would it be to finish this (higher number is good), and how much effort remains (lower number is good). "Joy quotient" is satisfaction divided by effort.
I am very pleased with myself for inventing something called the "joy quotient".
I am a little sad that all I want to work on is low-effort stuff. And that I'm so burnt out at work that I am channeling my backlog frustration into my real-life hobbies. But you know what? Whatever works.
Meanwhile I am about 95% finished with Deer Trail. I'll post some pics when it's finished.
