Frog in a little pond can be much happier than fish in a vast ocean! -Mehmet Murat ildan

“We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.” – Mao Zedong

“Winter will pass, the days will lengthen, the ice will melt in the pasture pond. The song sparrow will return and sing, the frogs will awake, the warm wind will blow again. All these sights and sounds and smells will be yours to enjoy, Wilbur—this lovely world, these precious days…” – E.B. White

I have decided not to participate in OMG (One Monthly Goal) this month. I feel a little overwhelmed…so much to do and not enough time. Which is ridiculous because setting goals with OMG has really helped me to get things done. It must be the public accountability. LOL!

In reality, I simply to need to focus…little by little, inch by inch, everything is a cinch.

Ahem.

Will someone come and paint my living room for me? I just wanna sew! Ha, ha!

I do have an update on my Candace quilt for you.

As I previously stated, nothing is fused, so if I decide to change something I can easily do so.

She wore glittery blue eye shadow that day.

No…that is not a unicorn horn sticking out of her head. Ha, ha! Maybe you can guess why that piece is there?
