Will I ever get caught up?

I don't think it's about catching up. I think it's more about enjoying the journey, & it sounds like you are! You might try, keep one on the frame, to work, & one you making, at the same time. Then you can switch back & forth, & not get tired of either, depending on your mood...

Not just quilting either! Now that the kids are raised and DH knows he can survive without being up my butt all day I am getting very selfish with my time. I am a member of many community programs. I am giving up most of them. Just not enough time to committee fundraisers, festivals, activities, events and do so much planning. I can sponsor, that's easy just write a check! LOL I plan on doing what I want to do with every minute of my day and say "No I don't want to" much much more.

It is never ending... Is there hope for me?

And what fun would it be to get caught up? You always have something to do!!!! I can't tell you how many "to do" lists I've made and haven't finished!! My friend is always reminding me of the promised projects that she'll probably never see. Oh, well. At least I have tomorrow.

So I will not worry about finishing my 8 tops to quilt, 4 UFO, 2 PHD and 3 PIGS. And then there is my 'to-do' list. :lol:
