jljack Back on Here After Missing for a LOOONG Time!
 
Hi All - I used to be a very active member of this community. I changed jobs in 2012 and found my new job was really mentally exhausting. I hardly quilted let alone spent any additional time online. Anyway in June 2014 I got to retire and my hubby and I relocated to North Carolina from California. It is wonderful here and my life has become easy going and I am quilting and sewing and loving it. I am enjoying belonging to a quilt guild that I can participate in most of the activities. I am enjoying using my vintage and antique sewing machines when I didn't have time for them before. I am using up some of my stash and starting some of the projects I had pattern and fabrics saved for. So I am happy to be back on here and hope to get back in touch with some of the people I used to talk with on here.

Welcome back from another NC quilter. So nice that you got to retire and can get back to some fun stuff! Sounds like it was a good thing for you to retire before you got completely burned out. And wow, moving from CA to NC must have been interesting!!!
