Friday!

Peanut Butter Raisin Toast and Iced Coffee … my mid-morning breakfast. I'm sitting here in my "office", which is really a guest room now (Hurray!!!!), catching up on email, chatting via text with my MD Bee (love those ladies!), looking out the window (sunny but a chilly 62 today) and writing a blog post (obviously).

Today, as always, my To-Do list is way longer than the hours in my day. I LOVE a list, even when I know I won't accomplish it all. Just seeing it all there waiting for me - it doesn't produce anxiety, just the opposite - I know it will all get done (or not) someday.

Today - HURRAY! - these borders are finally going on a quilt. Flower Garden by Kim McLean deserves is own separate blog post … maybe tomorrow, maybe next week, but soon.

Donations of handmade items continues into 2019. So far, I have donated to "Warmies" - 3 pairs of socks, a cowl, a scarf and a sweater. Florida homeless get cold too.

I also have released into the world a quilt. This one went to Seaside Piecemakers Community Quilts.

I made this quilt in 2015, as part of the Magical Mystery Series that I taught at Spring Water Designs. It brought me JOY and now it's time to bring someone else JOY.

I was brave and did ruler work.

I need to be brave again … someday.

And

this afternoon, I will be babysitting Amelia.

She definitely brings us JOY!

I an very aware and do not take for granted what a blessed life I lead.
