some days its better to not even watch the news...

That's why I listen to the oldies music from the 70's
One song stands out, by John Denver Thank God I'm a country boy, it just cheers Me up real quick !! not all's bad.
and I so enjoy this board very much !!

I think the important thing for me from this board is that we have people who hear us when we need listening to, who help when we need help, and resolve the problems we have in quilting (and other things) that sometimes seem unsolvable. It is a great place to come and visit for whatever we need. It seems as if no matter how big or little the situation, someone has experienced it, too.

This beats turning on the news anyday - I know we need to keep up with the goings-on in our world today - but....... it is very depressing to hear one bad thing after another every day - just so good to read positive input on this site! Keep up the good work gals,,, and guys too! I'd be lost without this site to start my day.

That is one beautiful pup, the way he looks at the camera reminds me of my Susie Q. She was a germanS./Collie mix and wieghted 100 lbs when grown. Just a big dog, and colored like a collie with big head and ears. She was my guardian angel too. had her nine years and still miss her. People were afraid of her untill I introduced them and then she just loved them to death.LOL Kids came to visit Susie not me.LOL She loved cats too and thought she was mommy to any cat that was around, Washing and fussing over them like a nanny.

We are living in a world of problems, but they fade when I'm on the site with all you quilters. Best place to be.

I fully agree!

My avatat is my fur-baby. He's half lab, half beagle. He's a LaBeagle. Bowser.

I'm right in there with agreeing with you. We all need warm and fuzzies now more than ever. I make donation quilts for children around the world to remind me that they are our future and need comforting, too.

PS My furbaby is an Australian Shephard - your Shepard is gorgeous.
