    I sleep very little -approx 4 or 5 hours per night. The other part I'm either on the board or sewing.

    Football is my secret. My wonderful man watches football, yells at the players, helps the coaches, all from the living room sofa. So when he plays ball, I go to the sewing room and know I won't get interupped.!

    I'm a terrible housekeeper. I don't do something until it HAS to be done (like we've run out of clean clothes or are having company) and my standards are not nearly as high as they would be if I didn't sew and quilt!!! However, my husband does a lot, has never complained about anything being messy or undone.

    I tend to sew in streaks, so when it appears that I have been sewing like a crazy woman, I have. :oops:

    Well I have been off of work since Sept. with a back/hip issue. That has freed up time for me to set and sew. There are days that is is hard to set so I do not get alot of sewing done but on those days when it is hard to stand I set and sew. HUbby had hernia surgery so he spends alot of time on the couch watching tv and dozing in a out. If I feel good I will take my self to my sewing room and play. I let the house go sometimes and just play. Of course it is only me and Dh and the 2 furbabies so the house does not get to bad.

    I Love Quilts but I am afraid to start one I was in a group at church last winter but we did not get them finished and it confuses me on the cuts and instructions so I get on hear and admire all of yours.

    :lol: My problem is that I spend more time staring at what I've completed than I do working on what I have left to accomplish :lol:
