    Several busy things have come and gone, and I'm talking with my principal about reducing my stress tomorrow, so that should lighten my shoulders. I'm telling him I'm leaving school at 3:30 (we could leave at 2:55) from now on no matter what. This 5, 5:30 and 6pm departure times were killing me! We start at 7:10am!!!

    So my plan is to leave school, do my walking, come home, start dinner and head to the sewing room. I'm gonna make this work (as Tim Gunn would say!).
    Good luck with the potential new job (and the less-stressful-ing of the old job)!

    Whoever matched us up matched us well. *grin*
    I don't remember when we'll need to report back at the end, so that might make a difference, but we could even do the final mailing as a holiday gifts thing... "Don't open the RR box 'til you're opening presents". That would give a substantial amount of extra sewing time.

    it might be cool if we all held the final row (our own) till everyone has theirs and then open the final package together in the live chat???

    I hate to be a fussbudget but Booklady can you please try to send the next quilt to me by next week? We sold our house last week (after only 15 days on market) and settlement is the middle of November. I don't want the package to get lost in the shuffle of all the boxes sitting around. I also don't want it to be in transit while the move is taking place. I understand you are dealing with issues and believe me nobody understands that better than me! I have been working 7 days a week for a year and a half and the last month or so they've been adding 2 and 3 double shifts to that. So basically I have 2 full time jobs and now I have 4 weeks to pack up a house then unpack it all in the new one. It would surely help if this was one less thing for me to worry about. Thanks.

    I'm trying to complete it by Saturday. If I can't I'll send it on and mail my row to the owner on it's own. Again, My most sincere apologies for my tardiness.
