    Maybe it's just me but i need three of me:
    One to cook and clean, pay bills, work
    One to do all the errands and shopping
    One to be able to QUILT whenever i want!!!!
    Lately there never seems to be enough hours in the day or
    enough days in the week. Is it me or is that for all quilters???

    it's the same for me, where does the time all go. I never seem to have enough hours. Work, take care of MIL, go see new grandbaby in hospital, go to next floor see DD (kidney problems),help hubby in field, transport driver for hubby, cook, clean, laundry, (try to fit sewing in). Off to bed, (oops forgot to turn on dishwasher), back up...............oh I need a vacation.

    I need more than 3 of me. I can't seem to get anything done with all the I wants around here and the constant mommy, mommy, mommy. It is as if there isn't another adult in the house to do things.

    I used to maintain that I didn't need more hours in the day. What I needed was a cook, housekeeper, nanny and gardener. Then I could do what I wanted to do.

    I'm retired and still don't have a lot of time to quilt, probably more than some people but not nearly enough.
