The picture above shows exactly how I've been feeling as of late - partly in focus and partly (mostly, actually) completely unfocused. It's been driving me crazy! Do you ever have a phase when you feel sort of all over the place? When you are soooo busy, but don't really get much of anything done? When you have long to-do lists that keep growing instead of getting shorter?!
Well, I've got lots of knitting to share with you (just finished a YUMMY scarf from the softest sari silk yarn), some art to show and a few recipes to entice you with (I've been cooking a bit this weekend and even remembered to take a few photos).
But do you think I can get my act together to actually post something? Not so far. It's like I've lost my blogging rhythm... Has this ever happened to you?!
Thank you for being so patient with me while I get back into the swing of my creative life! You all are the BEST!!!
Aww, well, I have no sense of rhythm, that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteCan I just tell you, though, I love your sandals. They look very classy. I can tell, even though they are blurry.
I see you have spotted the spy I sent to see what you are up to. Dang. He was never very good at camouflage.
Tsup!
hi silke! last week was like that for me, this weekend i ended up having to play catch up and now i have a bit of a sore throat. really hope i'm not getting sick, again! fall and back to school just seems to bring out the sick in me. maybe we both just need to shut down for a few days?
ReplyDeletehope your fog clears soon my sweet friend!
Yes I get like that every so often and I can tell you that is to shall pass. Everything changes nothing stays the same so just pause take some deep breaths, you'll soon be feeling like your old self.
ReplyDeleteHello Silke,
ReplyDeleteI feel like that saying: "The faster I go, the behinder I get." No kidding - it must be the time of year to be extra busy because the holidays are quickly approaching.
Have a good day,
Doris :-)
It's hard isn't it, I have been meaning to do a post for almost two weeks now and just finally got around to it this afternoon.:) You have weird frogs down there, sticking to your windows like that.:)
ReplyDeleteYou have just described my entire semester! At least you got some lovely knitting done during this time!
ReplyDeleteLooks like your trip to Germany has relaxed you SO much that you're having a hard time getting back into the swing of things..and the Fall weather is upon us too! Be patient with yourself. You'll be back up to speed again soon. :-)
ReplyDeleteI felt the same way after I got back from my summer vacation. You'll get your rhythm back soon. :) Love that froggy pic!

I think dear Silke, it just means you are living a full and wonderful life. blogging, in all it's joy and fullfillment, is extra, icing on the cake.
ReplyDeletehappy new week ahead!
Aaaaaawww! Liebling Silke, joint he club! I have no rhythm and lost my focus for several weeks now that I had to do something drastic this weekend - clean the house! I just finished. Ooooooh! I am so tired but so happy to sit down in a clean and organized room. I am going to draw. Hope you get your rhythm and focus so. Tsup!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! See? I can't even type properly "join the club". Goodnight sweet!
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon. We all go through phases. They come and they go. You'll get back into the groove of things. Just start painting. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteGuess everyone has phases like that. Not to worry. Just take the time to listen to yourself.
ReplyDeleteSilke I think we all go through times like that. I know I have! And it can be frustrating but as they say...."this too shall pass!"
ReplyDeleteBe kind to yourself and know that soon you will get back into the groove! Always appreciate the honesty in your posts!
PS....let me know about the card! :)
I always wonder if times like this in our lives are a warning of sorts. To sift and sort and find the important things and discard the things that are just cluttering and chaosing us up!
ReplyDeleteI hope you find some clarity and a moment to breath!
The older I've gotten, the more I realize I wish I would have listened to my body and spirit a bit more!
To answer your questions, yup, yup, yup and yup!
ReplyDeleteLove the frog photo! Wow!
I've certainly been there. Silke. THings will probably all come together this week. I do love your photos! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteYour blog is just amazing!!! I love it! Such fun over here he he he he he! Thanks so much for sweet birthday wishes!
ReplyDeleteOh Silke, that is EXACTLY how I have been lately...all over the place and accomplishing not much! I do believe there is a purpose in the loss of focus though, as if it is the pause before the clarity, part of the process. A time to become more essential. So no worries! Everything is as it should be. **blows kisses** Deb
ReplyDeleteHi Silke,
ReplyDeleteI know exactly how you feel. I also feel like I have been chasing my tail recently. It seems to be the time of year for exciting things to happen, but bringing it all together can be a bit crazy and difficult! ;-)
It will all work out well in the end. I'm looking forward to seeing your new sari silk scarf. It sounds lovely.
Really good to see you again.
Love,
Jo.x
Hi Silke..hugs! you must be walking the inbewteen right now..no worries..let your flow fall into place when divine..for now you are off in a magical space collecting new ideas and gifts...and when you return you will ignite in the now..and focus will move in and all will feel in focus yet again! It happens all the time to me..i just honor exactly where i am at the time....and create when called! For now...enjoy this gift..rest relax..unhinge..just be!! Soon you will feel back on earth...and you will play and create and sing in all colors....!
ReplyDeletehave fun kindred.
Kiki~
i'll bet the reason is astrological!

Hi Silke, I think we have all had those days. I know I have - even very recently. Just feeling all out of sorts and wondering and worrying about everything. It always passes, thankfully. You just need to stay the course! Theresa
ReplyDeleteThis is sooooooooo where I am right now. I feel like I'm in a persistent vegitative state. I haven't done much lately but I am accutely aware of all I SHOULD be doing.
ReplyDeleteGood to know I'm not alone in it.
