Psalm 116

Good morning, Heavenly Father! Actually I've been up all night again coughing and here it is 5:00 am, no sleep for a second night, and I'm saying "good morning". Well, at least it's positive. God, I haven't been too positive for many months now. I'm overwhelmed with health issues again and it's been so long since I've had... Read More...

YIPEE!!!!! Just completed my 2008 Retreat Quilt Top. My friend Sheila is paying to have it quilted by a longarm as my Christmas present. I don't know any in this area, so I'll have to call some friends. This is one of the UFO's that is close to biting the dust! Don't worry I have plenty more, but most of them are small and will only take a weekend... Read More...

I was just posting on Where Do You Hail From? I noticed that there were some ladies from Parkman and Chagrin Falls. I live in Bedford and Chagrin Falls isn't too awfully far away. Parkman is a bit farther. Would you ladies be interested in starting a Reap What You Sew quilting group? All quilts would be donated to charity. Please contact me if you are interested...

OK God, Where's the Heat??

I lived in Arizona for almost 11 years and the past two years that I've become a snowbird it seems the winters have become colder! What gives? I don't remember the winters being this cold when I lived here. Altho I shouldn't complain considering back home in Ohio it is much, much colder. The snow I left behind has melted and they are getting rain... Read More...
