    Hello, this is Dianne from Catlin. I just saw your post from April...sorry I don't check for them. Anyway, I wonder which Taylor family you are related to? Would it be Leone Taylor? If so, I know the family very well! Yes, the Danville Threads of Time is my "hangout" and my first class was a T-shirt quilt which started my passion for quilting.

    Do you find the Indian drs. wives to be vapid and materialistic and snobs? You don't need to wear makeup--God didn't design us that way. And, he makes us beautiful in His eyes. Remember, you are beautiful without makeup. Do you wear the sari? I love those. So many beautiful colors but very expensive. I would love to own one.
    I lost most of my message and I am sorry for that as I am sure it was insightful and full of lots of suggestions!! LOL
    On that note I will finally close.
    Peace and blessings,
    Vicki @ csadrbls82@hotmail.com

    PMy heart is still breaking for you. I am trying to make myself go out periodically during the daytime--mostly if I need to go to a quilt store. My husband doesn't and won't make those decisions but he does go by himself to grocery shop!! That's a biggy as I can't handle those narrow lanes in the store.
    I'm upset as evidentally the law has changed and I have to go to my drs. office once a month for one prescription I take. I'm ready to quit taking it because of those appts. I have such terrible attacks before I need to go as it is 45 minutes away from here and we always have to sit in his office for 15 min. and then in that small room with no windows for another 10-15 min.
    Peace and blessings,

    Oh, Joan, my heart breaks for you. I feel your pain as I go through it too. I wish you would see your friends that are close more often--even if they come to your home to see you. Real friends understand or try to understand the "anxiety dilemna". There are a lot of us out there.
    Please write me at csadrbls82@hotmail.com as that way we won't have to go pt. 2, 3, 4 etc. LOL
    Oh, for private messages go to forum like you do for this, but under the big FORUMS look to your left side and you will see "new posts, gallery and then private messages" as well as other units. Hope that helps you with others you message.
    Peace and blessings,

    Good morning Joan,
    My children, so far, have opted not to have grandchildren. It hurts that this has been their decision but my oldest son, Chip, has raised his wife's two children since they were a baby and under 5 years old. He has done a good job with the fact the mother undermines him at each avenue. Very wrong to do. Too much devisiveness.
    To send a "private message" just go to private message at the mid-top of the page on the left hand side. I'm going by memory as I am not on that page being on the forum under my name.
    I love Washington State and used to go often when I lived in CA. My grandparents lived in Pt. Townsend and most of my family lives in the suburbs of Seattle--that nieces and nephews now. We are awaiting a birth right now of a niece up there--she lives in Seattle.
    Piece and blessings,

    PT 5:
    I am working on a springtime pinwheel quilt with dark green prarie points between border 1 and border 2. Hope it turns out feeling like spring. I plan on keeping this one, but who knows. I have never kept any quilts I have made. Jim gets edgy about that as he would like one or two of them. I made this bigger than the large wall hanging it was. I added two extra rows across and down but it will only be a lap quilt. It was started from charms that were swapped last Tuesday. I am in 4 swaps right now and two BOM's. That will all keep me busy for this month. That and taxes!!
    Well, my friend, I am glad your mom had a fulfilling life and two daughters who really loved and cared about her.
    I value our friendship. You might want to go to "private messages" instead of this forum for writing messages.
    Piece and blessings,
    Vicki

    PT. 4:
    I am 61 now. When is your birthday? I have always been an energetic and outgoing person and a few years after we moved out to Iowa from CA I changed and I also have social anxiety issues. It is awful. I rarely leave my home. I order fabric, etc. over the PC and wait for it to arrive. Sometimes I have to shop for something special to go with something else so I do have to leave then. I did take a workshop last Saturday and had a good time. I have no friends around here. The 3 I had moved away. I don't blame them. There is nothing here but prarie: corn and soybeans! LOL
    We have friends all over the U.S. from traveling and we keep in touch with all of them. That is my favorite part: history of the area we visit and meeting wonderful people. Sometimes the friendships blossom and some don't. We also have 3 sets of friends in Canada.
    End of Pt. 4

    PT. 3:
    I worked as a secretary to a president of a company when I was in my early 20's and then I worked for a law firm from 25-30 when I met Jim and moved up to the mountains to live. Jim allowed me to be a stay-at-home mom which I loved. I am short 4 credits toward a degree.
    God knows our nature and our true reasons for doing things. I hope my sisters' reasons for not getting my mom treatments are sincere. I think they should have talked to Debbie and me about it, too. I'm the oldest and the smartest of all of them and research a lot. I also talked to an oncologist about mom and he said they were doing great things with chemo and radiation. My sisters wouldn't listen.
    End of Pt. 3

    PT. 2:
    My mom is dying at home in AZ. I would go down but not for days when it takes that long to get down there and also I am afraid I would bring up getting mom alternative care and start an explosion. I don't want to see mom in a daze and she wouldn't know me.
    Where in Washington State was your mom's last days? I grew up in Seattle and had relatives all over western WA.
    How wonderful to be a Master Gardner. One of my dreams to attain 1/4th of that. LOL I am so glad your mom had that before she passed away. How wonderful to die amongst all those flowers and plants in your dreams. Wish my mom had that. No, she stays in her dark bedroom. It doesn't get a lot of light from the window in the corner. It doesn't give much light at all and they never open any windows.
    Well, this ends PT. 2.
