It has been really crazy around here. My oldest son had some medical problems last week and it took a couple of days but he is ok now. My sister and her husband won the St. Jude Dream home on Sunday and the whole day was spent going to the house and celebrating with them. They have not received the legal stuff yet but the excitement is starting to wear off because now they are worried about having to pay the taxes and selling the house. They love where they live and don't want to move. They are middle class with two incomes and live pay check to pay check. I hope it all works out for them. Seems like winning something should be a good thing and not come with headaches but we'll see.

I'm taking a blog break. I can't seem to find the time to blog right now. I am trying to keep up with reading my favorite blogs and even that is hard. The summer is supposed to be a time of relaxation (at least it used to be) and slow paced but my life right now seems to be on fast forward and something has to give. I will try to come back soon. Hopefully things will settle down. I will check in as often as I can.

Hi Terry - Yes, what happened to those days when summer was about relaxing?? It seems that life ramps up when the weather gets warmer.

I hope you enjoy your time away from blogland. I'll miss seeing your gorgoeus quilts!

Have a Happy 4th. :-)

Yes, so many bloggers seem to be taking less time for blogging and really enjoying their freedom for the summer. There is always so much to do away from the computer.

I hope your sister can work out the issues with winning the dream house. I have always wondered about that problem with winning something that large....a blessing and a curse at the same time.

Enjoy your break. We'll look forward to seeing you back again.

Thanks mom. I do alot of thinking while I do my art. I should do more "playing" and less thinking.
