Thank you! I'm alone a lot and think it would be great to have someone to "talk" to. This group sounds GREAT! :D Am a dog lover but don't have one of my own. My "grandpuppy" was run over last April 17th and I still tear up when I think of her-----we were special buddies-----so I will be glad to hear about anyone's special dogs......am partial to beagles and Yorkies but any type of dog is a wonderful creature. What do some of you do to get you motivated when aches and pains make you just want to sit in a chair rather than move even if it is to quilt? That seems to be my biggest problem of late.
