Hi Dot!
-=> Quoting Dorothy Ferris to Wendy Buchanan <=-
 DF> The other day I gave you the wrong address.  Sorry.  It's not
 DF> island.net it's  islandnet.com
 DF> I also found quiltmag.com today.  I think you would like that one too.
They both sound neat.  For some reason I haven't done any net surfing
lately.  I guess it's because it still hurts my lower back to sit here.
 DF> interest?  Well you'll never guess what happened.  I received e-mail
 DF> telling  me that my blocks would be returned to me because they didn't
 DF> want  hand-stitched blocks.  I went back to the original e-mail I sent
 DF> both of these  gals and I told them that I did hand-stitching only and
 DF> they were okay with it  then.  I will have 26 blocks returned to me.  I
 DF> think this is happening  because it is time for me to graduate from
 DF> making blocks to making a quilt.  Lord help me :>  I need it now!!!!!
Yes, you need a quilt you've made yourself to cuddle into when you
feel down or upset.  It would be very handy when Russ is working!
 DF> Friday was awful!  Court stinks!  People lie when paid enough!  I have
 DF> to wait  to find out what is going on!  Still no medical attention! 
 DF> Nerves gone on a  trip around the world!  I guess it could be worse! 
 DF> I'm just trying to figure  out how! :>
You could be totally paralyzed and unable to make quilt blocks...or
get on IRC!  You know, my sysop is a quadriplegic, and he types with
a mouthstick.  Since he got into computers, he said once he sure has
spent a lotta money on mouthsticks!!!  hehehe!  He types as fast with
his mouthstick as some people do with their hands.  Even faster than
some, I noticed when we visited him.  And his sense of humor is just
amazing.  
This man is in his early 40's, and coming home for Christmas his 1st
year of college, his car flipped over and landed on top of him; it
broke his neck.  I'm sure his life isn't what he wishes it could be,
but he makes the best of it.  I guess that's what we all have to do,
but I'm sure sorry things couldn't have worked out better for you!
In the meantime, when life gives you lemons...make yellow quilts!
hehehe
LadyBear Hugs,
