Wow, I have sure been on information overload in a good way......well sorta a good way.

I was working with a bad appendix and got so sick one day I went home in February early and by the afternoon went to the ER.  By the next evening I was in surgery.  The following month I decided I had enough of all of it and decided at 67 years of age I was ready to retire.  Never looking back I have been sewing every single day.  Learning more and more about quilting and finding so many quilt groups on Facebook and YouTube videos to watch I feel I will have projects to keep me busy well into the after life.  Having a lot of fun too!  I had wished I had money enough to travel and energy enough too but that didn't happen so I watch the Travel Channel and sew away in the air conditioning and watch Josh Gates climb around out in the heat and muck.  Once in a while I will cook up an ethnic meal and enjoy.  I get to talk to my daughters nearly every day, see my grandchildren on FaceTime.  Enjoy conversations with my brother and sister on the phone from time to time and live with my best friend Art.  So, life is pretty good.
