    Smile Hello from NW Florida

    Hello, I am an avid string quilt piecer , and currently am in love with pinwheels.The only thing that gets in my way of quilting time is my job. I have been an caregiver for the elderly for 23 yrs even though my degree is criminal justice. I currently work part time in the field and part time in the office of the company. My husband built me my own "happy place" out of a restored horse stable and I love it. Best part is I can lock the door and be uninterrupted as he has no key. I have been a lurker in this board for couple years but now I intend on being more active.

    Being a caregiver is a full time job. The only person I've ever helped care for was my mom who had Alzheimer's and for the last year of her life needed round the clock care. It's tough. Thank you for helping in difficult situations, I'm sure. And welcome from the beautiful mountains of western NC.
