I manage to read at least three or four novels a week. I spend several hours a day on the computer and make at least 20 Linus quilts a month. I recently got involved with a project to make little dresses for the children in Haiti etc. Another excuse to purchase fabric and notions etc. It finally gave me a place to use my new Acuquilt cutting machine. I usually make my own quilt binding so I always have leftovers. The binding comes in handy for the little dresses. I don't work outside the home since I was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease 11 years ago. I am leagally disabled so believe it or not this is a slower pace for me. I have a local woman who comes in every three weeks and does my heavy cleaning. Aside from meal prep, shopping and laundry I do little house work outside of bedmaking etc. It is just my husband and I now and one cat. I quilt with a group of ladies at our local senior center on monday mornings and belong to two formal quilt guilds one day group and one night group and a small Bee that meets everyother wednesday morning. We sit around and do handwork for a couple of hours and then go to lunch. My only other outlet is singing in the church choir.
