A Red Letter Day

Today I did 30 sit ups.  It's a red letter day because today I have finally reached my goal.  Why 30?  My father told me before he died a little over a year ago that he did 30 sit ups a day every day of his life.    So I thought, why not me.   I have to tell you that pitifully I could only do 5 sit ups the very first time and then I lay on the floor huffing and puffing.  So, I started at 5 and after over a year have made it to 30 a day.   And, in addition to the sit ups I have a regimen of exercises now that I do every morning.    Yippee!   It makes me feel better!

Of course, no red letter day would be complete without another milestone ... finding out that I am no longer the web mistress for Friendship Star Quilters.  Someone else has stepped up to the plate and I am delighted to have more time to learn Photoshop and Illustrator and Publisher, all tools that have the potential to take my creativity to a new level.


Finally, I have been encouraging my husband to expand the products he manufactures.  His new website is now up an running and has two of the products we have been working on together.  So if you need a way to keep those bobbin threads from unraveling try our Bobbin Keepers.  If you need to keep your pins and needles from pricking your fingers, try our PinStops.  These products are straight from the manufacturer....no 20% quilt show mark up.   Check them out: www.dixonproducts.com
