I think we'd all have withdrawl if the board was shut down for a day!! I sit here for hours looking and reading everything. Think how much I could have got done... I could have bound the lap quilt that is waiting. :D

Well I'm in the same time zone. Its after 8 so your probably gone to Joanns. Did you find penguin fabric? I was there yesterday and seen some really cute penquins.
|
I wake up every day about 4:30 and after coffe, I hear the news and then off to the sewing room. My DH sleeps until about 10 or 11 and then its time for brunch... I love the early mornings and am able to get a lot accomlished. Best time for sewing, but not for planning...

I haven't left yet, still in PJs. I just finished the first block of a new quilt so I can stop here and get ready to go. I was at Joann's yesterday too and I totally forgot about the penguins.

The older I get the less I seem to sleep. Just me & DH now, empty nesters, & I love my quiet mornings, no matter how I spend them. He is one who, the first thing he gets up, the tv goes on, & seems to stay on till we go to bed at night! How fun is that, & who needs it, constantly. I use to love mornings when the kids were home, & I was the only one up then too. I guess, for most of us women, lol, some things, like this, never change. I try not to sleep in much, or often, like some of you have said, I feel like my day is wasted if I sleep the morning away!..This morning it is snowing outside, so here I sit with my first cup of coffee, enjoying watching it come down. Don't care to be out in it, but sure like to watch it coming down, so peaceful....

I used to love the quiet, early mornings when I had kids at home too. It is just so still and peaceful either bundled up in the cold winter mornings or enjoying the cool before the heat of the day.

What is a calendar keeper?

I'm teaching a bag class at the LQS today, then tomorrow I hope to finish 2 tablerunners for my boss to give as gifts and a calendar keeper I'm finishing for a friend. Then I have a bag to make for another friend to give her daughter for Christmas. If I can get all these projects finished, it's back to sewing for ME! |
You are all making me wish I was a morning person.
|
Last night I dreamed that I broke into a quilt shop and got all of my projects done. Then I got caught!! Maybe my dreams are trying to tell me something!!

I am a early riser also. I'm retired but I love my mornings to have coffee, check out my quilting projects and then sew. Sewing in the early morning is so relaxing and then if I have things to do there is the afternoon to get out of the sewing room and do chores or run errands.
