I know TOVA but only because she lives in the village....

Corky

Tova just joined another guild in Lynden.

She's a busy woman! ARe you going to the SEW EXPO in Puyallup. A bunch of us from the VILLAGE took the bus from BOOMERS last year. What a riot!

Corky

not this year, I am awaiting surgery on my knee (my sewing and driving leg!!)

borntoquilt

Well! There is always next year. Hope your surgery goes well! We had a rash of knee replacements in the VILLAGE. It really was more like an epidemic. Wheel chairs and crutches were getting passed around.

I actually think its the aging of America and the fact that I am over weight, too. I fell and injured it 6 years ago and the MRI showed a torn meniscus, but I was the primary caretaker for my mom and put it off. She has since passed away and I really need to take the time to do it now, it certainly isn't/won't get better and, in fact, I think I have made it worse. There is no good time to be down, you know??

So sorry to hear of your mother. I lost my Mom Dec 3rd 2008.We seem to have a few things in common. If you are interested in continuing our conversation maybe we should PM each other ??? at any rate good luck with your surgery! Kennie

Hi Corky, I think I know you. Did you quilt shop with me for Batiks in MI a few years ago? Yes I think you are that same person! Of course you are. Want to do it again? I love this sight. Great info and help. - ph

Hey there, Girlfriend!! Love your mouse 'loving' your mouse in your avatar! Happy sewing, which is what I am going to do today (that is, if I can swim through my sewing room to my machine!) Cheers! BTW - have you been to my blog? Hop over to PiecefulDays.SquareSpace.com
