Too many of our original group are no longer with us because they have passed away. It's sad to read old threads and see their posts, chatting away. We miss them and are the richer for having known them, even if just for a few years.

What a lovely way to look at it. It IS wonderful to be able to read what others contributed years after they have left us.

I used to belong to a similar group, and international one as I recall before I retired, then found this one and have participated in several Farmers Wife quilts on board here, with Honchey, (?) Jeanie G., SewBiz, and others. Stopped quilting groups in middle of 50 Stars because of eye sight problems. Age keeps taking its toll, but finally getting logged back on here is great. Carrie was another one with the group back then. Memories are wonderful. I am still petting my fabric and taking care of husband Jerry. And feeling blessed to be able to take care of him.

Age really takes a toll on us, doesn't it. I tell my husband I want to "go" first, as I can't imagine being left behind without him.

After 58 years together, helping one another I can greet each day with a smile. Another day to show my love for him, and do whatever I can to help him. I do enjoy it most of the times and know we all exit to the next level someday....and I hope I can care for him as long as I have him. I would love to find a good worker in the area that would help us out 16 hours of every month, but even with insurance paying $20 an hour, no takers yet,

I joined 4-28-2010, and although I don't post a lot, I try to check in once a day to see what's new. I picked the name because I'm in MN and my initials are SAM.
