Love you all and appreciate the compliment to my cooking, but I'm being inundated with requests for this recipe exchange thing. So my choice is not to play any of them; sorry.

I've got to get the thank you notes done and out.
I need to clean my house.
I MUST get the new sewing business samples started.
I need to get the older machine out and finish garments I've promised, if it works.

And I'm tired....so other than reading a bit and trying to get some of the images organized (if I can get my farking laptop go be online which is being a daily occurrence) I'm going to lay pretty low here for awhile.

Hugs, and hopes nobody minds too much. I need some recovery time here! KCRF is wearing me out more than usual this year.

I got this from a friend last year and I think you'll appreciate it.

-When you listen to the airline safety announcements, they always say 'Please affix your own oxygen mask before assisting others'. Think about this for a moment. It seems terribly selfish to worry about yourself before you take care of the child sitting next to you, doesn't it? Here's the thing, though: if you go around helping everyone before you put your mask on you're going to asphyxiate, and you wont be able to help as many people. Also, you wont know how the mask thingie works. To help the greatest number of people, you MUST put your oxygen mask on first! This doesn't mean you are blind to others, you simply understand that you have to put yourself in a position of safety to be of use to them. By all means, once your oxygen mask is on be the mask-fairy to the entire plane; it is now of no detriment to your well-being.

When applied to life, this means that sometimes you have to let the problems of others fall by the wayside temporarily as you work on the things that will keep you going. It's not neglect, it's not a cop-out, it's not selfishness.... it's the only way to get maximum efficiency out of the system-

Le squish honeygirl!
