Hi Ellie girl, Well when I retired I got into voluntery work.After that got too much I started to teach patchwork and quilting for our local U.3.A. Finished up with twentyfour + ladies.It was wonderful to pass on, and learn new skills.Then it was a few friends in my home for the next several years. Now having moved to be near our son and family I have joined a craft group and continue to make and share. I now find it is hard to put in the hours due to spinal problems but still love life and seeing friends and family.We have just found a new church in the area -- so life goes on,more new contacts to enjoy.One thing for sure, the days pass sooo quickly as we get older, we need to make sure each hour counts for something. Love Letty
