This is so true. For thirty three years I "planned" all I was going to do with my free time. HaHa. The only thing different with working and being retired is, at least when I worked, I had a set routine. As far as sewing goes. I sew every chance I get. For the last eight months I've been working on a chevron quilt and I can finally see the end of the tunnel. But I've done things in between. I do try to work at the machine every week -- sometimes a little bit daily. I do better when I'm cutting and piecing. Basting the sandwich is a real chore for me and lingers.
