Actually sewing!
My life is no less hectic, and things have not really settled down or become
normal, BUT I have found some time to do some simple stitching and OH did it feel divine. I was in my own world, fondling fabrics and humming with my SM. I had forgotten how relaxing and rewarding it is to sit and do something but nothing. Does that make ANY sense? I know my brain is a tad scattered and things don't always make a lot of sense but at least I know now I found something that helps me feel better again. I know I don't post often in here, and lately it has been for some prayers and good thoughts. I love you all for the way you pour out the healing help for anyone in here. It is so special. I believe that your outpouring of thoughts and prayers are the only thing that holds me together some days. I am working on a homespun quilt, a simple 9-patch kind of design. Nothing fancy. Nothing complicated. But it is something soothing. If I didn't keep on lurking in here as often as I can, I am not sure I would have bothered keeping my fabrics and such, let alone get back to putting those little bits back into bigger bits. I have my serious doubts about actually finishing my WIPs right now, but at least I can slowly muddle along. So as long as my life is such a mess of stress and etc. I am more than glad you all are here sharing wisdom and funnies and help. I just wanted you to know how much you are appreciated!!!!! ~KK in BC~ Heading back to the mess that is called my life ATM.... one thing for sure, what don't kill ya makes ya stronger oh how I hope that is so -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No trees were killed in the sending of this message.

Good for you KK
It is so good to hear you feeling a little more encouraged, with all that is going on. Keep that little light burning as a beacon to you. However far away it will keep you heading 'through'. ..

Oh yes -nothing like a little sewing session to put life back in
perspective. My DH once watched me for a while, during a period of life chaos. The entire scrap basket was upended on the table, and I was producing little scrap blocks out of it. He had an "aha" moment and said, "Now I understand. Putting scraps together gives you a sense of control."

I know exactly what you mean. It's amazing how soothing
fabric/sewing/daydreaming about what might like to go with what can be. I've spent entire afternoons making a mess of my stash, not sewing or cutting an inch, but feeling so renewed afterwards.
