about 7 months ago i found 3 lumps in my breast. i never said anything to any one - but the first thought that popped into my head was.........

i better start that jane quilt. then i thought i better get some friends involved in case i die or get to sick to finish it (did i mention i'm a very dark person and always play out the worse case scenario).

DH had no idea why i was talking about jane, buying all this stuff for jane, organizing a group, etc.

then i finally went to the doctor and had tons of scans and lucky for me its just benign cysts and nothing to worry about.

so i finally told DH why all the jane stuff and he turn around to me with a dead serious face and said

"so, you thought you might only have 6 months to live and the only thing you wanted to do was make a quilt????"

i said "its not the only thing, i planned on eating alot of bacon."
