    I love this board. I joined after it was the "new Board" so I don't know any thing different. But I do come on in the morning and then at night. Inbetween I am sewing, knitting or reading. Books on Tapes makes it so I can multitask.

    When I don't have work at my job, I check the board. After I get home and do my chores, I sew on the super scrappy log cabin quilt I am making. I get back on here and play computer game, drag off to bed and start over again.

    Words with Friends on Facebook has become a detriment to my getting anything done, but I had to give four final exams in two days to end the Spring semester at school, grades need to be done by 3:00 on Thursday, have a 30-shirt t-shirt quilt that needs to be done by Saturday (I am in the process of sewing sashing to shirts) and I want to spend a day out-of-town with my husband. And, BTW summer school starts on Monday and I don't have my syllabus written. (How do you spell busy? Can I get it on a triple word space?)

    Well, since I haven't seen any replies from you since your original posting, it looks like you did what you said you would do. Yay for you. (Bet you stay up late tonight though trying to catch up on board stuff.)

    I look so forward to turning on my computer in the evening before bed time, after coming home from work, doing outside work, then normal every day stuff, It is my time to do what I enjoy, and that is looking at all the beautiful work all you gals make. Its a true blessing for me.

    This is an obsession with me too. I usually get on here when everyone else in the house is asleep and I don't dare disturb them by sewing! I have only been quilting since Christmas time, but love this board just as much as quilting! Although I do have two tops finished that are waiting for me to quilt and complete by May 25th! Maybe I should turn off the I-phone and go to sleep so I can get up early and quilt...hmmmm...
