Until I submit my thesis, not much is going to happen, not knitting-wise, not spinning-wise, and definitely not regarding blog entries. I will finish my Sockapaloooza assignment, obviously, but other than that, I doubt there will be time.
I miss it all, being crafty, writing, and reading about what you have all been up to, but something has got to give and right now it just can't be my work. I've got something like 4-6 weeks to edit everything I have written so far and to come up with a conclusion that will make sense to me and to others, and just now, looking at the picture above of our Victorian ruin in Yorkshire, it occurred to me that really, my thesis is in a similar state. The walls are there, and the roof, but to be habitable it needs a heck of a lot of work.
There have also been other things, recently, which have taken up a lot of our time, but all that will have to wait until I submit.
I hope you'll still remember me when I eventually get back - I certainly will remember you, and I can't wait to catch up!! For now, take care of yourselves, and until hopefully very soon. Hugs to you all! :-)
I'm sure you'll be so happy when it's all over though, I hope to be there 3 years from now ;-)
ReplyDeleteTake the time to do what you need to do. I'll be hear to read all about it when you're ready to return!
ReplyDeleteThinking of you whilst you write! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteGood luck Iris - it will pass soon enough. We'll still be here when you're back, don't worry!
ReplyDeleteHey, we aren't going anywhere!! I'll be waiting for you to come back. Good luck writing.
ReplyDeleteYou surely won't be coming back to an empy cyber-world. I'll be looking forward to your return and until then, stay focused.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Sherrill (across the pond and beyond)
Erm, that picture looks like my Study/House/etc etc except that the mess is spread further afield. Glad the Olympics are over so I can get some sleep and clean up the house. Take care of you - you are in the final seeming stages of your Thesis and soon will have a great "garment" to show off to people.
ReplyDeletegood luck with your thesis and everything, iris! we'll be waiting for you ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your thesis will be brilliant! Just remember to take a break every once in a while to do something you enjoy so that it doesn't completely overwhelm you. Of course we won't forget you, silly.
ReplyDeletei keep my fingers crossed for you... and i looking forward to upcoming crafty progress!
ReplyDeletelike your stuff very much!!
your sockapalooza-pal
I had to come up with a stonking 30,000 word introduction to explain all my thesis work in about 6 weeks, during which time I was not working but my gran died. It was hell, but I did it. Remember, the work is done, you are on the last bit.
ReplyDeleteGood luck. Catch up with you later.
Good luck and we'll still be here when you come back xx
ReplyDeleteGood luck with finishing your thesis. I'll miss your posts, but will be ready and waiting when you can come back!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the thesis, and remember what I said about regular short breaks and "treats" ! We'll all still be here when you get back! I remember revising for my finals - all of a sudden, I felt the weird need to clean the oven! Strange brain avoidance tactics! :)
ReplyDeletework hard, good luck, and we'll be waiting when you come back, I for one want to see more pics of the house!
ReplyDeleteOf course I'll remember you!
ReplyDeleteEveryone always remembers me after planting season and that's twice as long. ')
Work hard! Good luck!
I know exactly how it feels but you've not got long to go and you'll be finished and it WILL be worth it!
ReplyDeleteGood luck and stay sane!
