I guess I am the odd one out. I get my housework done, any errands that have to be tended to, and when I can say "What can I do now?", I head for the machine! If I don't have anything in the back that I know needs to be done, I am free and clear to do my sewing. Sometimes it is an hour, sometimes it is two hours, sometimes it is 15 minutes. But, my house is taken care of first. Then I put on an audiobook, pour me a glass of the fruit of the vine and settle in for an hour or so of "me" time. It also gives me the impetus to get my act together when I get up, get everything done and then I have more time for "me" time. Not every day, not by a long shot, but I get some time in every day. Have a great day and dust before you sit!!!!!!!! Edie
