Are you sick? That flu is a real doosey, I had for 3 weeks.

So glad you like the site...I am thinking of a calendar also. Would that be cool to have your quilts in a calendar for all to see? I think it is exciting! I tend to get excited over little things.

What is that cough all about....you can't be getting sick on us now.

Well...here's what happens with me. He's off Thursday & Friday. We get to spend Friday together because I work (4) 12's. So that's kinda of our date night.

When he's not here on the weekend I miss him. But in the evenings and stuff I just want to decompress after dinner and play on here or with my sewing room and he plays video games. I think I just like knowing he's in the house and I can go say hi or get a hug or talk to someone.

Do ya'll talk on the phone or online while he's OTR?

Why thank you ma'am. The first batch from last friday a lot of it will go in my blocks. Today's was just because it was $1/yd. If you see anything there you'd like I can run and get more and send it to you...I know where you live *mauahhaha* just don't know your taste.

i can imagine it's tough being apart...kinda like a long distance relationship then all of a sudden having to share your space after being alone. I take it he long hauls?

-celtic sunrise (from quilterscache)

Nitey nite ladies!

Morning Ladies, I have my patterns ready to go and an idea. I'm headed to the quilt shop on Friday so that I can make the most of my 3 day weekend and get a good start on my row.

Talk to you soon. Christina
