    Default Spend too much time cruising this board instead of quilting

    Yesterday I grabbed a cup of coffee and sat down at my computer and went right to The Quilting Board to check it out. I do this every morning, first thing. I planned on spending 1/2 hour here and then sew for a few hours and then go grocery shopping for dinner. Well, after cruising around here, I looked at the clock and it was 2 pm. 2pm!!! I spent 6 hours on this site (my favorite by the way). So I had to shower and run to town and come home and cook dinner. No sewing done at all. Does anyone else spend hours on this site? It's so addictive to me. I love the main section and the tutorials. Today I am spending one hour and then going to sew (hopefully). I just love the fellowship of this site and all the helpful people. It's like a "big family" here. So, does anyone else stay on this site for hours at a time?

    I'm literally on here at least 4 hours. I love it. I need to quilt, but, Oh well. Yes, I'm very addicted.

    guilty ... me, too. I open this site and cruise around, sew a little, cruise some more, some more sewing, etc. People post the most interesting things and beautiful quilt projects!

    I like the idea of a timer! Once I start, I forget to look at the time.
