Each of my two cats must have their brushing, then I empty litter, sweep the floor, give them fresh water, wash their dishes and provide fresh food. The I go to the back door where they are waiting impatiently to be let out. Now, I can take my shower. Then to the kitchen to make a quick breakfast, my husband usually fixes his own, so I can have whatever I'm in the mood for. Then it is time to get ready for work. If I am efficient with my time, I may have 10-15 minutes to quilt before leaving for work. I envy you gals who are retired or don't work outside the home. I imagine I would get more quilting done if I didn't work, but then again, I would probably wind up doing so many other things and still wonder why I don't have time to quilt as much as I want.
