This week:
I'm still really enjoying this one though. I haven't worked on anything else since Monday. Today was such a crazy day that I don't feel like writing much. Or is it... Could it be...? Surely not? I can't have writer's block on top of translator's block-induced stitcher's block? Now that, my dear friends, would be something to worry about.
Speaking of worrying, for all of you perpetual worriers out there: thanks so much for your support and your sweet words of encouragement. My foot feels better today and is starting to look as svelte as the other hoof again. AND the test results are in, but they still can't say anything until probably March 18th. Isn't that nice?
I'm going to play with my kumuhumihimimohohoho disk tonight. Or continue with Bea Pot. She hasn't seen much action lately, poor dear. Anyway, I hope you're not blocked in any way, shape or form, and I wish you the best of weekends.
Yours... can't-think-of-anything-tonight-Must-be-the-translator's-blockedly,

Rites is looking gorgeous, great progress. You got some great stash :)
RoS is looking lovely Annemarie :) I meant to stitch some more on mine today (I wanted to get to a certain point before taking a pic) but it didn't happen. I'll have to share my progress tomorrow instead.
Sending you some anti-block vibes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - hope they work quickly!
Glad your foot is improving too, that's great news.
Translator block - that's such a good name for it. You're making great progress anyway and I hope you finish it quickly!

Hi An, I'm glad your foot is looking at least better :) I hope it all returns to normal soon for you...eek!
Your Rites of Spring looks fantastic!
What Vonna said plus I'm sorry about your translators block but at least you didn't have a block about stitching because your Rites of Spring looks a-maz-ing! Lots of Love Patti xxx
glad to hear your leg is getting better.
writers block reminds me of what we call a 'brain fart' if we can't come up with something to say or we forget :D
BBD is looking awesome..
Glad to hear your foot is better! So strange that everything doctors do takes so long.
I haven't experienced translator's block, but my age-induced lobotomy makes it really tough to come up with words I used to know. ;)
Stitching looks lovely. Glad to hear your foot is getting better!
Looks gorgeous... I also like your owl and bird pin-cushion.

Hey, I bought one of those Kumihimo disk thingies last year at, of all places, the Gourd Festival. It seems serious gourd artists make their own trims for their gourd vase creations. Mine still sits in it's original unopened package in the craft cabinet. Too much math for my taste, but I love the results I see on various websites.
You've been into some seriously nice stitching lately. I'm stuck on my mail-art contest entry. It's nearly done, but I am so worried, as it is my first official contest entry and it has to make it all the way to Finland without falling apart.
Nice progress on ROS! Glad to hear your foot is feeling better-but what the #@%$ do they mean no results till the 18th!
Your Rites of Spring looks very pretty! Some progress is better than no progress. Take care of yourself!
Translator's block? Personally, I haven't experienced translator's block, because that would require me to speak more than one language, but I am far too well acquainted with editor's block. Oddly enough, I've experienced stitching-related side effects, too. Do you think these ailments could be related?
Speaking of ailments, glad to hear you're making progress on the foot/leg front. Just to be safe, though, please refrain from happy dancing over any finished projects till you're 100 percent again. OK?
Rites of Spring is looking lovely!
You may have translators' block, but you've made good progress in other areas. It's such a relief to hear that your foot is finally looking better. I'll be holding my breath for the test results; they're sure making you wait long enough. Must mean it's not too bad.
RoS is looking great. I'm looking forward to reading a fun report on your kumihimo adventure. :)
very nice WIP, happy stitching
Giggling at the thought of svelte hooves. Are you related to Pan? ;)
Seriously, very glad that your own fine shape is returning and I hope that trend will continue. The results are in, but you have to wait nearly half a month? What's up with that?
I hope your translator's block disappeared already, never to return. Or at least not for a very long time! :)
And now I've forgotten to add that Rites of Spring is looking wonderful!
You're doing great on Rites - despite the unstitching. I hope that block goes away real soon.
Rites of Spring is coming along beautifully. It's so nice to stitch.
You have won an award on my blog:)
Rites of Spring looks fantastic. And I hope that you could get rid of all sorts of blocks, lol.
Glad to read that your leg is getting better.
I'm glad to hear your hooves are close to matching in appearance again. ;) I hope they have some good answers for you, when they finally unveil the results!
Your RoS looks wonderful. Good luck with the various blockages you've been afflicted with as of late. ;)
you can't have a writer's block: we're all here visiting and READING what you have written. there's nothing wrong with your writing skills....
I'm glad you're getting well after all this time! It took way too long, and I'm curious about the testresults.
Nice stitching! You have been stitching a lot lately and haven't you been suffering from startitis??
Funny post...lol!
So glad your foot is feeling better. Boy, those test results take a very long time!
Pretty progress on RoS!!
The stitching looks great. Pleased to hear the foot is on the mend.
Your work looks nice! I am too a translator, from italian, and at the moment I ahve flu, and a lot of translation to finish... I am finding all the possible excuse in order not to translate, but to stitch, watch movies etc... it's hopeless, but I need to force myself... (the stitching goes on quite well, actually).
