Wow - cool - Where in Corpus? I'm off Oso Bay...right before Flour Bluff!

Thanks for the laugh. (Is it too rude to laugh at someone else's expense?) At 3am, my son, who sleeps in the bedroom directly above where I sew, says my machine sounds like the wind whispering in the pines. Lulls him back to sleep after he realizes I am up and about...

We're off Cimarron. Been back home for about 2 years. Born and raised here and spent 29 years in Victoria. Sooo glad to be back.

Been there tried that...worked as well as your experience.

So now I just peruse the internet looking for quilt patterns to add to my Wannado List.

Not everyone can sleep at that time of the night/morning. As my mom would say, some of us go to bed with the chickens and rise when the rooster crows. Well, I could be the one doing the crowing, cuz I'm awake VERY early -- before the roosters.
