Retired since Nov 2009 and DH retired Jan 2010. Changing family needs have given us lots of free time. First year felt a little strange and 'at ends' but it didn't take long to readjust our lives. He bought his dreamed for RV and we have spent about 5 months out of the year (not at one time!) on the road. I have revived all my crafty things (fabrics, oil paints, beading supplies) I think I have too many interest
Finally I made the ever growing list of to-do's and ideas and UFO's. Recently was gifted a Singer Model 15. I am having a great time cleaning it up. Am amazed at the beautiful stitches and how quiet it operates being 75 years old. Will admit I spend a lot of time with the QB but it is worth the time spent. Everyone is such an inspiration and so talented. Thanks to each one for your mentoring and willingness to help! I can now plan and play with my creative ideas without dealing with deadlines. I like that!
