Priorities

When asked by daughter Laura to watch our two grandchildren for the weekend, of course I agreed. Then I looked at my schedule and theirs and realized I would have to close the shop two days and also skip Friday Night Free for All. Family is always my top priority so I posted that the shop would be closed for Friday and Saturday. But my sanity is a priority as well, so I notified Joe that he would be in charge of serving the darlings frozen pizza and watching cartoons with them from 5 to 10 on Friday night. Friday Night Free for All was not cancelled!

On her way, Denise picked up dinner from Chipotle for those who hadn't eaten. Then five merry quilters settled into the normal routine of sewing and chatting. One breakthrough --I was thrilled to discover that one person not related to me by blood actually reads my blog. But quilting is a pretty strong tie because we all process our plans and require feedback on the ongoing projects. I think quilters sometimes know more about each other than friends of a more miscellaneous nature. Some husbands live in fear as to what is revealed on a Friday night.

But never fear, husbands are high on the priority list -- just not quite as high as they would like to be.
