I posted a notice at the library for starting a quilt bee. Keep looking. You WILL find friends!!

This weekend I'm giving one away to one of my doctor's secretaries. She has been making quilts by hand due to lack of a machine. I already feel lighter.<br /><br />You have been through a lot - you have changed. Sometimes, as we grow, we realize that some things are just not important anymore. <br /><br />Hugs to you!

I am trying desperately to separate a box's contents into "keep," "give," or "trash" as I open each box and I've done pretty well so far. We now have a second offer on House 1; I hope it goes through before the weeds get higher than the house!

You are moving on slowly and it will get better. You need time to adjust. So much has happened in such a short time. And your writing will help. It will be great to find a real on the scene friend, but remember you have a lot of virtual friends sending their support to you. We've had a break in the heat wave which has been refreshing. Warmer again this coming week.<br />Pat<br /><br />MissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.com
