Well, I recently moved to a large city and joined a rather large quilt guild. I have only attended two meetings, but did enter two quilts into the quilt show. One of the quilts I entered was my Avatar. Someone asked my name and I told them. Then she said "You did Acoma". Seems a lot of people had been commenting favorably on my quilt. That's my good news for the day.

I agree-at times-while I love my DH with all my heart-I feel like I can't live with him and I can't shoot him!! Board lets me vent and keeps harmony at home. My BFF also bitches with me. Great stress reliever and we know it won't go any further!

This was in a magazine years and years ago and I cut it out and saved it. Thought you might enjoy it as well.

"Each of us is like a shard of glass, each a different size and color. Bits of glass are not remarkable seen scattered loosely about; however, if all are bound together with the lead of love, and each permits the light of understanding to refract uniquely through us, we become one magnificent stained glass window."

Froggy honey, you must have a reason for saying what you said, but I either missed something or I'm plain stupid because I try to read every single post on here (I have no life - not complainin, just sayin)and I know when I read different posts, I find myself thinkin, jeez I thought I was the only one who had those problems, or jeez what sweet people. I will tell you this, I have had a lot of very sad days since I lost my best friend (my Mother) and this board and members have given me the strength to keep going. I find myself laughing and crying with you guys, oooooing and aawwwwing over your beautiful projects, feeling so much kindness when someone shares a tutorial or a "secret hint". I start and end my days with this board and my biggest carp (who knew) is when I've read everything and have to close my computer. I'm definitely not a religions person but I thank God every day that somehow I stumbled on this board. Thanks to everybody for makin me feel part of this family and the moderators, you're awesome!!! I could go on and on because this board is so dear to my heart, but then you guys might shoot me :) Wendy

Wendy, you couldn't have said it any better. I agree 100% with all that you have mentioned. God Bless You Always!!! Mary
