When I worked at USF my motto was never buy more fabric than will fit in your briefcase to go home at night!

I was so hooked when I started to quilt that I used to take a late lunch so I could go to the quilt store and see what the UPS may brought. And, I fussed at him when he was late!

They didn't always know the price but they knew I'd be back the next day. I hung out there so often they eventually hired me!

Those were the 'good ole days'. Now I'm in the too young to collect social security and too old to be marketable to change jobs. I am grateful for the job I have and since DH's stroke I have really had to cut back on spending but I have a ton of fabric at home to play with!

Peggy in beautiful, sunny Florida!
