My housekeeping definitely has taken a back seat, I am now 71, and my life road is getting shorter and I have decided to not be so bothered by "chores" and what I "have to do" and tend to focus more on my quilting and what gives me pleasure to do. I am busy all the time.. I have many things I like to do..fine crochet work that I love doing..enjoying a good book..the one thing I absolutely love to do is drawing and painting with pastels and that's something I do not let myself do because if I do start.. time absolutely stands still and hours go by..I guess I expect all control will be lost at that point but somehow I have to fit it in. I still do longarm quilting for customers so I do have to keep up with that as well..where oh where did spare time go????
