Cari, you can join us for now. The only thing you're too late for is January's FQ challenge sign-up. Feel free to post any time. Don't wait until February to start improving your health.

nancia, I wish your daughter was not being obstinate. Her GM is gone and your daughter needs to be there for you and for closure for herself. At least you'll have Olivia - and we do want a picture of her quilt, and, of course, more pictures of her. Fibromyalgia is a b----. I'm in one of those 'try to find a spot that doesn't hurt' flares, too. Who knows what causes them. It's part of the mystery of the disease. I bought a picture frame with the Serenity prayer on it for the LR, but maybe I should put in the FR where I will see it often. It's hard to accept what we cannot change.

Sending two red fabrics isn't a problem as long as you sent one to each address. The intro every month says, -----. ---- or whatever you have. Red is great color.

I am still eating too much candy. I have plenty of food in the house, but fell into grabbing 'whatever' when I was getting ready for Christmas. Now that I have time to cook, I need to do so. Someone bought me box of the Pot of Gold Chocolates. They aren't bad so I should have opened them when a crowd was here. My weight is down slightly which is a plus, but the sugar comsumption has to decrease! I AM eating less sugar starting right now.


I stopped at both fabric stores on the way home from the doctor today. No purchases, but several called to me. A pinky-purple print that's down to $4 and a lilac and aqua striped batik that's much more. I did find a line that might do for the auction Spicy Spiral. Soft red print to lime print. It should sell as a spring runner in a red, green, aqua or off white room. I know I like it. That owner suggested Christmas prints, but I can't get excited about that at Valentine's Day. First I need to make sure I like my daughter's or it will be one of the ones donated.

I am gaining control of my weight and getting healthier.
