Said when she got to Heaven, she would have to pick out all the stitches she put in on Sundays, and she HATED to pick out stitches. hehe.
Shoot, if I didn't sew on Sundays, I'd get very little quilting done !
That said, I remember my grandparents' view of Sundays as a day of rest. Remember the "blue laws" ? When the only places that USED to be open on Sundays (not THAT long ago) were grocery & drugstores, gas stations and some restaurants ... IMHO it was better that way, when families actually spent Sundays together. Since then, it seems that we just worry about running more errands & getting more "done" ... and people wonder why they're stressed out :roll:
