On the Move

 Once again we are on the move to a new area and home.  We are leaving Southern California to return to Northern California in the greater Bay Area.

We are making an effort to purge a lot this time.  It is hard work both physically and emotionally but it feels good.  I'm looking forward to setting up house with a bit less baggage.

GOOD NEWS!!  The Michigan Fall Quilting Retreat is on for October 3-6, 2021.  You can find information on the retreat page of this blog.  I'm so looking forward to reconnecting with these ladies and meeting new friends.

Have a safe and blessed 4th of July!

Change

 So many things in life change whether we want them to or not.   I sometimes find myself wishing I could stop change from happening and to some extent I could do something about changes that I have control of.  But this is really about change that happens that I don't have control of, like getting older.

My husband has decided to retire.  We are at that age!  We have been very busy learning what that means and doing all the necessary paperwork to make that happen and asking a million questions and searching to find the right answers.  It's exhausting.

We will be making a move and so the search began and that is a full time job itself.  With the help of a dear friend we have that covered for now.

I have made some changes in my own career pursuits.  I will be ending my teaching at the college with this spring semester and will miss my students immensely.  I started teaching on Facebook Live in January and will continue to do for The Quilt Show with Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims. This has been a lot of fun and am so glad I don't have to change that right now.  Once settled in our new home I will pursue other options that might be available.  The retreats will continue when the Covid restrictions end and am looking forward to that.

My hope is that as changes come into your life you will find the good in them, rejoice in the new and continue to pursue your dreams no matter where you are or what circumstances life brings you.  

Blessings to you all,

Dee
