Be sure and bookmark the things you really like. I didn't realize this could be done until a couple of months ago, so now I'm going through the last 6 months of posts since I never deleted any of them. So now I read, bookmark, and then delete after I'm through. Welcome to this amazing addiction.

I go thru spurts of reading everything which takes hours, then I'll lay off for a couple of days. I'm afraid I'll miss another good idea or pattern....just another thing we have to multi-tasks and prioritize. So, my priority right now is sitting at this pc.

Although I must admit that I had to go to a week long quilting retreat and NOT take my laptop in order to break myself of the "all day/every day" habit.
