Enjoyed your story. I often have felt the same but couldn't have made it sound like you did.

Thank you, my father is one of the many ole time story tellers. My children love to visit their grandpa, gathering around the kitchen table, sipping on sodas, eating grandmas homemade goodies and listening to colorfully and dramatically long ago stories. So I suppose its in my genes...shew thank goodness I didnt get moms nagging gene!

Loved reading your story. You have a real talent for writing. Maybe you should write short stories.

You make a sad situation sound really funny in your writing ability.
I was making my square in a square quilt and cut the squares 9 1/2" instead of 6 1/2" ... luckily I could cut them down and just add to my stash with the bits left over.
Thanks for sharing!
