Please take care of yourselves and nurture yourself. God has plans for you yet. Quilt when you can or just stroke that gorgeous fabric you have in your stash or dream of the quilts you will make on good days.

God bless! I have a job but some days I would give anything to just stay home.
Wonderfully stated !! I agree with the job !!LOL

Grew up on a farm, was a waitress in high school, went to Beauty college and was a hairdresser for 30 some years, now retired from this but still go to shut-ins. After husband retired we moved to a lake area where I enrolled in first responder classes and finally became an ambulance driver and did that for 7 years. After my husband passed away, I moved back to home town, near kids & grandkids and stayed retired (again) for 4 days and found I wasn't ready to relax so applied for and got a job at a high school cafateria for 3 hours a day and have been there for 7 years. I am now 73 years young and haven't figured out what I will do when I get old. This school is one of the most rewarding of all.

A welder, and did all the paper work in the office. That because we own a welding shop. Did a lot of railing in Branson Mo. It was just my husband and myself and some time one of the kids would come in and help.
