He is a good man and I am lucky to have him as he works hard around the house. He is retired and I work full-time so I can see why he wants my attention all the time when I am at home. But I have to have my time to myself too which is rare anymore. He always wins out and I spend 90% of my time away from work with him. Anytime I can go to my room and quilt is so wonderful to me. This is how I can find peace for my soul.

I'm just so thrilled to have that wonderful man, that I try not to sew much when I have him at home. I'm very blessed that he would understand, though, if I said I'd really like to get something done. I do sit with him while he watches the occasional football game, but I hand quilt all the while. Once I get going on sewing, I hate to stop, and I would probably forget what or who was most important.
