    Hubby pulled out the crock pot and the cord was along the counter, I put the meat etc. in, turned it on and went to
    work, looking forward to pot roast all day. Got a call from Hubby when he got home, NOT plugged in. :)
    First thing I check now is it plugged in. LOl

    Hi,

    That is so funny! I know what you mean about being addicted. I dream about fabric and quilting.

    I think you missed something in your daily routine. The same thing I seem to miss every day --- house work. Remember?? Dusting, using vacuum, cleaning bathroom. At my house, that stuff is no longer as important as it use to be. LOL

    That is awesome! I love to quilt when DH is gone for the weekend. I get so much done when he isn't there. :-)

    I have looked as so many pictures of your beautiful quilts, clean rooms and great ideas and that is what I want to be...when I grow up! Whoops I am grown up! My kids are gone and the ex is as well and I have a totally new life to celebrate! A wonderful new man in my life and a beautiful golden retriver...Bailey...that we rescued in November from the pound.
    So, here is the addiction...I am now getting up an hour early running to get my coffee and sit to check this website and read all of the fun things. Then I go in and look at my stash and start putting things together. Kiss my bf good bye after he says what are you doing to day? I only teach three days a week now due to the economy...
    Then I am off..rotary cutter in one hand ... ipod on.. and iron heating up! Zip, zip, zip...sew, sew , sew ...PRess..YES another block done...up on the board for later use...again go...again go...and in between seams throw the ball for Bailey...
    Shoot its noon gotta get in the shower and get to the grocery store...OOPS! Grocery shopping? What did I need again? Oh that's right dinner for tonight.in the car with Bailey in tow to town we go..BRAKE!!!!!Quilt shop.....two hours later with a new stash and my mind going a mile a minute...home wash the fabric,,oh ok put a few shirts in while I am at it too.
    Back to the stash and repeat...4:00 bf is home.
    Hi honey what did you do today? UMM...should I tell him? Oops gotta iron...well I look good at least...I will throw a shirt in too..
    He says what's for dinner..oh um um Pizza!!!Quick call Pizza Hut they deliver right???
    Eat, Honey watch whatever you like, I say..I am just going to clean a little in the guest room...He snoozes...yes! Zip, zip, zip..
    10:00 bedtime...I toss, turn, toss, turn, he snores,so I sneak downstairs and sew just a little longer...2 am! OMG I have to get up in 4 hours and then I can start again..Sleep dream...wake up to thoughts of yellow and orange fabrics in my head...
    BF gets ready for work...I give him a kiss and am ready to start again but not before I watch him walk out the door with a plaid shirt on and imagine that in my next rag quilt...
    Life as a quilter.....it's a wonderful addiction!!!
    ah so true.

    Sure sounds like your addicted, like the rest of us. I would quilt a lot more, but love to look at all the quilts, and sewing room pictures here. Keep the addiction, it's good for your soul. :thumbup:
