Bit more, but still struggling to stitch!

I'm trying so hard to stitch! The desire is so strong and yet I just don't have the time. It's now a week to go-live and I've got a million and one things to do, but all I can think about is stitching. Typical me, eyes are NEVER on what they should be focused on! But anyhoo, last time I had left off here after several weeks of struggling:

And I'm still barely moving, but it's a bit better than last time:

At least once I finish this next big batch of color block, I'll be close enough that I can start on the girl without doing more background (unless I decide to switch to another project, but right now, I'm pretty happy sticking where I am...I think I'm looking forward to seeing her appear finally).

I'm not sure how much I'll get done this week, but then again, I'm not sure how much work I'll get done compared to stitching...my brain tends to want to wander when I have deadlines looming. Knowing me, I could very well finish the row by the end of the week (well, probably not, considering I'm still not back up to my old speed yet but, then again, who knows!).
