:D Lacemaking FTW! I have bobbin lace things somewhere, but I've never managed to actually learn how to do it, so yeah. But do tell what the reasons are - they're almost more or less naked in that one! ;)

I hear you about the slow writing. I'm trying to write a tight piece of dirty Renaissance crossdressing porn, and all I'm managing is long-winded romance. bah. I'm almost ready to give it up as a bad job and just move on.

Please do take care and don't run yourself completely into the ground with the workload and the illness on top of the writing - sleep some, woman! I'll admit I worry about you a bit. :)
