The Answer
Can you solve this riddle? I’m betting there are no other statements in the world more true than the one I live by, laugh at and love. It’s short and to the point. It eases stress if you believe it. It helps you laugh at yourself when you’ve really messed up and it’s the key…

Page One
Had I followed through with all the plans I’ve had throughout my lifetime, I’d probably be more worn out than I am and no farther ahead. That comment may sound a bit pessimistic but in reality, it’s just the truth. As I was cleaning my desk the other day I ran across a manila folder.…

Double Nickels
I haven’t written anything for several days now and as I sit here sifting through various thoughts in an attempt to find the “lump” that won’t fit through the mental sifting screen, I’m coming up with absolutely nothing.

“Smiley”
I’m not sure about you, but I love to hear about projects people are working on. We get to hear about a lot of those projects where I work and every once in awhile customers will bring in something for “show and tell.” We’ve seen quilts in progress, finished quilts, scarves, beaded earrings, purses, tote…

April Fool’s Day Isn’t April 15th?
I’m not sure about you, but I did my taxes on April Fool’s Day. It’s sort helps to alleviate the pain involved when the government takes money from you if you tell yourself “April Fool’s!” They still take your money but it feels better when you think they’re joking.
