Lori, I am like you. I go to bed thinking about quilting and wake up thinking about it. First thing in the morning, I get my coffee and sit here on this board and read all the recent posts! Then when there are sales going on here, I quilt and click refresh lol.....my machine is right beside my computer :lol:

AMEN

For when you have a lot of kids you can buy a bucket that has multiple niples you can attach all around. Just make sure none are left out of the kids. You might still need to hand feed some of the smallest ones or runts and train them on the bucket as they get older. It can make the task less overwhelming. My children do our goats and by the sound of it we have less but I know when the new ones come it can all take a lot of time.

I think you are preaching to the choir. All of us go through stages like this. Many times I consider my everyday chores to be an intrusion into my quilting time.

LOL. I just decided to hire a housekeeper to do the "cleaning" once a month - so I can quilt without the guilt.
Makes sense to me - what do I enjoy more ? It's not the housework.
