My house is a mess, I have errands that need to be run, there are a million other things that I need to be doing (I could be working on my quilt).....and it's all your fault!!! But every time I walk by my computer I just have to stop & check the Quilting Board! I guess I'm afraid I'm going to miss something. I'm going to have to unplug the laptop & hide it from myself just so I can get some things done around here!

Have the same problem AND I am at work! Shh...don't tell my boss. I also have to constantly check in from home. Is there a QBA (Quilting Board Anonymous)? :roll:

Boy do I know where you are coming from!!!!!!! :lol:

I would get so much more done, but then I have learned so much that makes my quilting life better..... :thumbup:

"ditto" :-)

Is there a QBA? Sign me up! My name is Susan & I'm a QB addict.

Here is what you do. Go buy an iPod and WiFi so when you are home cooking, cleaning or doing laundry you can check in and keep doing what you are doing. It may take a little longer to get things done but you can feed your addiction just like me. Lol

It is so true. No matter how often I check in, every day I see something and wonder "how on earth did I manage to miss that?"

So true. I come on here to check and hours later, here I sit. So sad but sooooooooo fun. So this is what addiction feels like.

You are not alone! Sometimes I don't even go fifteen minutes without feeling like I must see if there's anything new! And I have completely shut down my computer before to try and stop myself from checking!

Same here!! :-D

I had gotten so obsessed with the board that I wasn't getting anything done around the house including quilting. Resolutions: I found a friend on the board that only lives two blocks away and we are scheduling one day a week for sewing days. I found a website that has really helped me get organized so my house is getting cleaner by the day. Flylady.com

I get flylady emails every day. And I delete them every day.... bad me. No wonder my house is a mess. Plus my obsession with the classifieds - If I would sew for half the time I spent here, I'd be getting a lot accomplished!

I'm on here more than working in and out of the house.

I'm afraid I'll miss something.

I should throw the computer out and get something done.

I Just went and bought about 200 different bulbs to plant for spring. Maybe I could take my computer out with me and plant one bulb at a time and check this out in between planting each bulb.

Check in every day. I have learned sooo much here.The pics are inspiring and the people are very willing to help. Love it.

I love coming to this board because I feel I have friends that will make me laugh, teach me things I didn't know and pray for them if they have a need.

Yes, I agree this board is very addicting! but this is our therapy

(we laugh, cry, etc. together) share cool pictures and love to read all of your messages

I just love the tutorials and always looking for cool links so I can post so all of you can enjoy!

I don't get much of anything done, but my days arent nearly as boring. I love every minute I spend on here, and feel like I have gained friends galore.

Same here!

Oh, I am so relieved to hear that other people have the same addiction as I.....and not a bad one at that. Just takes up more of my time than it should, but I so enjoy seeing other people's projects and learning new tips. Hard to stay away, and don't plan to change things at this point☺

Ditto to everything everyone says,
I thought I had OCD with this site..... lol lol lol
Now I see I'm normal like the rest of you.
:-) :-) :-) Thank Goodness..........................

I tell my hubby I learning. :wink: I wonder how long I am going to be able to get away with that :?

I am here all the time. I tell my hubby I learning. :wink: I wonder how long I am going to be able to get away with that :?

found the board while at work, and now have many more projects I want to do and have to be at work instead of at home quilting. Can some one write me an excuse to turn in to my boss???

Agree to all the above. LOL....Love this place.

Well, I have two teenagers so every thing is my fault already! And I know what you mean. I could be taking a nap right now!

I know the feeling. Gotta check in several times a day and I always find something I missed.

Me too! It keeps me up till all hours of the night. No wonder my fibro is acting up!

Thank you all! Good to know I'm not the only one. Even though it's your fault, I consider you all my support group for my addition (is this enabling?)

I come here for r&r and to learn what I can. I have nothing pressing to do and this is more interactive then television! :thumbup: :D :D :D

I bring the laptop into the sewing room. Then, while waiting for the iron to heat up or reheat, I can sneak a peek. :D

Ditto!! :thumbup: :lol:

Me too!!! I check this board before work and it's the first thing I do when I get home....after I take my shoes off.

ME TOO!! Love this place, all this knowledge and creativity is just amazing!!!

This is one of my favorite places to be.

I have the same problem!!

I have the same problem.But I love to see what others are doing. Maybe I need to quilt a few so I can share them with all of you. LOL Love this site. I learn so much from others. Thanks to all you wonderful quilters.

Ditto, ditto, ditto!!!!

LOL... do the same on off days and spend too much time here, :) But enjoyable:) Ok back to sewing other wise I'll feel like I got nothing done today. :)

I love this place. It's like escaping with a bunch of your best friends.

Problem? No problem. It will all be there when I get off this board - AGAIN
