    Ditto for me too, my mum has been suffering stroke for a while now and I think she will be lucky to see the new year in.

    My DH is very supportive. He's thrilled that I have found something that I enjoy as much as I used to enjoy gardening when we lived in the Northeast. We moved to SE Arizona several years ago and gardening isn't much of an option other than some raised beds for my mini-roses and herbs. I discovered quilting through a friend at work and have been obsessed ever since! My DH is very proud of the quilts I make and takes quite an interest in my new-found hobby! We will celebrate our 27th anniversary this Friday (9/17). I am very blessed.

    Yes Happy Anniversary, We celebrated our 40th on Aug. 22, and it seems like only a short while, not 40 but then our oldest is 38 yrs. old and that hardly seems possible either. I seems like only yesterday that she was just a baby.

    Mine also I prayed for your healing last night. We all know when we get a cut that the body was designed to heal itself. Remember "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" May God be with you in a special way. Gail

    penny was it a TIA that you had. I just had one and am doing pretty good. I had to take off weight and get my sugar under control. If you don't do some life changes they tell me it will be a bigger stroke next. That really scared me. Please take good care of yourself, MNM

    My hubby is pretty good about it most of the time. He knows I need it like he needs his video games--which is where I am fortunate--If he is not watching football, soccer, baseball, hockey, or basketball then he has an original Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Playstation 2 and an XBOX plus games for the computer. I work full time so when I come home he has dinner ready, we eat and watch a program until sports--then I go down and sew. He also has a far better eye at putting fabrics together than I do.

I try to plan days just for us to do things together but he still wants my attention constantly.
    My grandmother taught my grandfather how to cut out quilt pieces from templates after he retired. He did that while watching TV. My favorite quilt is one that he cut out and she pieced!
