I love being married to a farmer. He has a no nonsense approach to snow removal. Notice how he piles it up on the garden area. Next summer, the potatoes will have extra subsoil moisture. Yesterday we spent indoors watching the snow and pretending we were at Big Sky. We didn't go skiing this year, since Mike chose not to miss more school. Believe it or not, he graduates in four months. He plans to go to college at UND.My latest surge of interest is in the art of long arm quilting. When I saw how much beauty the
quilting itself added to the project, I was hooked. I researched long arm quilting machines and found a website that is a forum for long arm quilters. Such beautiful projects. The equipment to do it costs a lot, and takes space as well. Most people who do it are in business, getting paid to do quilts for others. I don't need another job. Can I justify it just for myself? I told myself I wouldn't decide until fall. It gives me time to make a good decision, not a spur of the moment whim. Me, impulsive?
Maybe you could start by learning, trying things out with one of the long arm quilters who does things for the quilt shop. Maybe not another job now, but I could see this being something you could do and enjoy for indefinite years to come. At some point, little jo jo and I are gonna take over this med business and you'll have more time to do these other things you love. Why not get a start now? I bet you could definitely get someone to show you there quilter thingy and how to use it. Happy quilting mom! You're cool beans.
