After a rainy and dreary day, this old photo caught my eye...we have not even had a hard winter and I am ready for summer.
Does anyone ever just relax on Sundays? I always feel like I need to accomplish a little something each day. I tried to just sit and work my puzzle and do nothing but kept feeling as if I should be up and doing something. So, ended up down in the basement and did a couple small loads of laundry.
While clothes were washing, I decided to try to find something to toss in the garbage or a donate bag. I found old VCR tapes where I had recorded quilt shows. I thought I had gotten rid of all of them, but got in a drawer and found some that I had had there handy to watch while I was down there. So into the garbage they went.
Even though I had disposed of a lot more than those, it still felt strange to throw them away. Sort of like getting rid of an old acquaintance. They had all been watched numerous times. I watched them when I recorded them, then later there were favorites that I watched several times more. Anyway, they are gone.
And I found 3 or 4 more boxes to collapse and throw in the garbage. Does anyone else save boxes because they think they might need them to mail something in? I don't save all boxes or anything...but I always save one here and there.
A little here. A little there. It is all better than nothing. One of these days, maybe I will feel like I am done decluttering...do I hear laugher out there? You know, it could happen.

Our ray of sunshine
She doesn't look at all happy, but all you have to do is look at the photo below and you can tell she is fine...they were taken within seconds of each other.
As you can probably guess, we ran over yesterday to see them...just needed to see them.

Still making me happy
This machine is still making me really happy. This mess is in my dining room, and I don't much care. I like having it there to sew with those few minutes here and there...and sometimes it might be an hour here and there. But it is the odd moments, when I am cooking or just want to sit down a few minutes that makes me so happy with it.
It would take me a lifetime to do all the sewing I want to do, or to use up all the fabric I have. And yet I always see something more I want to make or try, and more fabric that I want. I think bother are common to quilters.
