My grandmother always warned me to be careful putting my best foot forward because you might trip myself. Sigh... Some of you know that I had become very discouraged recently and you have sent such encouraging words. This was like getting kicked while I am down. HOWEVER, I get my unemployment check tomorrow and I am going to replace the Big Foot that broke and dig into quilting again. This quilting disease is something else isn't' it?

Never thought to use quilting disease for a diagnosis - wonder if I could use that for a work excuse. "Can't come in today, this week, maybe for 6-8 weeks or longer as I have Quilting Disease - they say it may not be curable"
I could use more time to try to decrease my symtoms but alas they will likely just get worse.
