Thank you all for your kind words. This means so much to me. Things will get better, I have faith and I believe if you have faith in God you also have to have faith in his timing. I don't have much access to the internet right now, but I hope that will change and I can be on the board more often. Here's to a great 2011!

May everyone on the board have a year full of blessings.

I just happened onto this and I am ever so glad you spoke up and just said what was going on. bless you and may things get better.
Last year we had a member that had "life to get in the way" and she just disappeared! I even wrote her a letter and apparently she just couldn't bring herself to come back. that's so sad. Good for you for having courage. We've all had 'stuff' and had to say our mea culpa's. ;-)

GrammaNan, you just put your faith in the Lord and he will help you through all of these bad times, he says that he will never put more on you than you can stand, but sometimes it seems like it though. I will keep you and your family in my prayers and I pray that things will be better for you all soon. I am sure that who ever you promised something to will understand, so try not to worry about it. You can make up for it somewhere down the line, if you need something to help you with your quilting please just ask and if I can I will be glad to send something to you. Sending you GREAT BIG HUGS

I have learned Life goes on in many different ways.
If someone gets mad at you they aren't your friend.
I found out the hard way in life.
I need a sewing machine because mine broke and I can't afford one now I just can cut and put away things to sew later.
Pat-- you may have already checked this out, but if not here's an idea. Check with any thrift shops, Salvation Army stores, Good Will etc and see if you can barter having their sewing machine repair person work on your machine for volunteer hours. You never know and all they can do is say no, no harm done!
I don't even buy anything for sewing either.
I love to read all the things people are buying maybe someday again if not oh well I guess I'm not suppose to have it.
