Don't expect your non-quilting friends to applaud your latest endeavour. They really don't get it and couldn't care less--unfortunately for them!

Now I do.
....and sometimes I still can't find a pair!

I can so relate to your list.
Whenever you plan to make a quilt from your stash there is always one more fabric to buy so you can make it.
Everyone is suddenly helpless when you sit down to sew.
You can sew with a dog on your lap and others at your feet.

WARNING!!! WORST VIRUS EVER TO HIT QUILTING BOARD! The BSTC Virus (Butt Stuck To Chair). The virus glues you to your chair for several hours at a time! No housework will be done, children will starve, the cat will not eat, and the dog will not get its walk. You lose contact with the outside world; your butt goes numb! Warn all friends ~ it's too late for me ~ SAVE YOURSELVES!!!! Mwahahahaha!
