Blog Nap

Even though I haven't posted in a few weeks, all is well.
I've been having myself a little BLOG NAP.

You know, one of those times in your life when you take a little break from the normal routine and head in a new direction.

I wish I could report that I've been on an exotic beach somewhere, catching some zzzzzzzz's....
But instead I've been up to my elbows in de-junking.
And I'm happy to report it's been quite therapeutic.
Out with the old, and in with the new.
Well actually, it's just been a lot of "out with the old."
I'm almost on a first names basis with our local thrift store, where I've delivered carloads of donations every day.

I haven't been quilting, but I have gotten a good start on measuring and organizing all my wools.
Soon I will be putting yardage up for sale.
Lots of nuetral colors perfect for hand dying.

    Never thought about calling it a Blog Nap, boy have I been asleep along time. Looks like you accomplished more than I got to. You want to come organize my closets for me? Looks great.

    I've been thinking about you and how you are doing. I can't imagine how busy you must be going through everything and packing.
