Since I retired, I am the boss of me. Therefore, I only do what I want to do. When I quilt, it's because I want to and I like to. I have learned to take breaks from it now and then, though, to keep it fresh. Otherwise, quilting starts to feel like a job.
What I wrote sounds sort of selfish, but it isn't. There are things that I do that I'm not crazy about doing, but I am either crazy about the people I am doing them for or recognize a need, so I want to do them.
