Happy 4th of July

Happy Anniversary to you and your dh. woohoo to 36 years together. Taria

Freedom to quilt what you like, like what you quilt!

Cheers!

Ragmop/Sandy - celebrating my 36th wedding anniversary ;-)

A Fourth of July wedding? The whole country celebrates your anniversary every year! Joe and I just had our 35th on June 26. It's been so hectic here the past few months we almost forgot - at least I did, he's such a romantic. Anyway, I hope that today I will be able to sew the binding on the front of the ginormous quilt I'm making for my son. Then hand-tacking down the back will take me forever. I have a deadline of sorts. Bret and his cat are moving from Virginia to Tallahassee at the end of July, for at least four years. I want to have it done by then, or else I'll have to ship it. I don't see me making a car trip from PA to FL anytime soon. Did it a couple of years ago, to Disney World, and hated it. Flying will be the lesser of two evils, I think.

As soon as that king-sized quilt is done, I can do what I want. Yay!

Howdy!

A belated Happy Anniversary, Iris.

Congratulations.

A big quilt, you say? While he moves to Florida: yee-haw! He'll be further away, but protected by his mom's love & comfort. ;-)

Cheers!

R/Sandy - quilting & anniversaries & chocolate: "it's all good"

• "Where does the time go?" "Cleveland!" ..Bugs Bunny

Where does the time go, indeed! I retired in 2005 and DH in 2006. We've both noticed extreme time acceleration. The days and weeks go so fast.

And, by the way, DS almost went to Texas! El Paso to be exact. He was accepted into the PhD program at UTEP, and they were the first ones to come back with the offer for the assistanceship. I didn't mind Texas, although it's pretty far from Pennsylvania. The idea of Juarez right across the river was a bit scary, no matter how much they emphasized how safe El Paso was. But, then he went to a conference and met some people from Florida State (which was the second one to come through with the money) and he made his decision. I tried to get out of making a big quilt for a hot state, but people assured me it gets cold there too!
