National Readathon Day
Get your reading on today!  No matter your time zone, between noon to 4 pm today, pick up a book or two and read!  Malcolm X said, “People don't realize how a whole life can be changed by one book.” Indeed!  So pick up a book today and see how your life might be changed.

Not sure where your local quilt shop is?  Here's a free app for your phone...of course!
I love looking at finished quilts. They are works of art, storytellers of history, visuals of traditions.
I have some quilts that have been made for Lanny and I and I love them because of who made them.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
