I was excited when my friend told me about this group.......but now I am not so sure it was a good idea........I haven't done d single thing today......I have been looking at pictures and reading posts.......and I'm not finished yet.....Oh well, I live alone so I guess if I want to sit here the rest of the day and night and visit I can.

I have really been enjoying seeing everyones projects.

This is a great site and the best thing about it is that you can't use it up :lol:

Hey , join the rest of us , I think most of us have the same problem. But you sure learn alot.

I have gotten to where I allow myself a certain amount of time then it's off to quilt, clean, or whatever. Love this board!

Welcome to the club!

Ditto to that!! This board is soooooooo addicting, but I'm not complaining!

Thats us !!!

Me, too. I'm having one of those days where I can't get motivated to do anything. Just found out I don't have to work tomorrow--that means I can procratinate even more today. Don't feel like sewing-hate the project I'm working on. Could clean but no one's sticking to kitchen floor yet. Oh well, I'll just stay here awhile longer.

I take a 15-20 minuite break from sewing every few hours.
keeps me from getting achy sewing for long periods.
and I can sit here and the time goes so fast!

Oh I know what you mean. This site is addictive.

Well we're not the only ones--I just looked and there are over 200 logged on users right now.

Well since we're here we might as well have a donut and coffee while we read. :wink:

oh coffee
need to go get some!
It's cool here today and I am going to sit and watch a movie! Just don't feel like sewing anymore today.
after I get done with all the new topics of course!

So glad you are part of this group. I think most of us keep check on each other and what's happening.

I just found this board recently and I already love it. So exciting to see what others are doing!

Thanks Marsye for the coffee and dognut.

Welcome to the group, This is your therapy, free patterns, show and tell

We all love this group, have fun!

Marsye, you're not helping us offering coffee & donuts!! We need to GET TO WORK!!! LOL

Personally I love Marsye's donuts. They are the only ones that don't stick right to my hips!! LOL
Welcome to the board and you will always be in great company here.

Welcome, I feel your pain, I am on here way too much, but I love it.

I play here till I'm numb or hungry - whichever happens first ! Welcome to our group !!! Glad you like it here ! Pat

yeah, i find myself reading, thinking, planning and talking about quilting a whole lot more than actually doing it. i have found it's the same way with prayer

I spend way too much time here every day

This site is addicting. I am having my morning coffee and reading.I have three more batches of candy left to make for my GD's graduation party but think I will stay here for a while longer. The party isn't till tomorrow. I will have plenty of time if I ever get off the computer.

I think we are all in the same "boat" Would rather sit here and look at pictures, links, paterns, tips, etc.
I do feel guilty sometimes for just sitting here and reading every item on QB. Learning lots of good things.

First thing in the morning I come into my sewing room. I read my bible, pray, then hit the computer and go right to here. I usually spend my first two hours of the day that way. By then the husband is up and I have to leave to make the breakfast. But, I do wander back throughout the day. I am so glad to have this wonderful message board.

LOL, it really IS addicting!!!!!!!!!

i know what you mean ! i think i spend more time o the board than i do quilting ![in fact i KNOW i do]

Set the project aside and start on something new and exciting. It's okay to have several projects in the works!

Well......I did stick to my floor near the fridge.....but that's a quick wipe up! :) I also just learned I have an unplanned 5 days off. Thought I was going to have to work a day in the middle.....but yipee!!! Does the JanRN mean you are a nurse?? I recognize the work schedule if you are. :) Who else gets to work weekends and holidays on a regular basis?

Oh, but the board is good for you. Just think of all the ideas you will get while looking at other people's quilts.

I think there needs to be a 12 Step group for those like me who are addicted to this site!

"Hi, my name's Loretta... and I'm addicted to quiltingboard.com."

I get my coffee and log on to "chat" and share ideas with friends. Thanks to all

I know what you mean. I would rather quilt than clean house.

Clean house??? Not as long as we have this wonderful board. I go by the saying "If you complain about something being dirty or dusty, clean it yourself, and it won't be dirty/dusty anymore" (my hubby and 3 sons ALL know how to dust and mop!) LOL

OMG I'm so embarrassed. Patches was just licking something off the kitchen floor--who knows what it was but he seemed to like it. Oh well-that's one spot I won't have to wipe LOL.
Lori: yes I'm a nurse; 38 years of nursing and am semi-retired or so I planned. DH lost his job 2 weeks after I gave notice so I work as needed (which is about 30 hrs per week). So much for retirement!!

I'm an RN. My dept. is open M-F with weekends and holidays covered by "on-call"...so yes...I do call about every 4-5 weekends and have one "major" holiday call per year. July 3'rd is part of my "weekend call", I also was on-call Saturday of Easter weekend, and my holiday call is New Years Day 2011.

And BTW...July 3rd is our wedding anniversary! And I get to spend it on-call and most likely at work! :(

The joys of being a nurse...

Welcome from Florida!!! Glad you could join us!! There is so much good information here, you can't digest it all at once....We'll still be here tomorrow! :lol:

Yes as a retired Surgical nurse, I spent many years on call
