It’s been a while. This whole blogging thing seemed to be taking over my life for a while. So I quit. But lately I’ve been feeling like I need a way to track my progress so that I actually DO something. Here’s what’s been happening:
Serious progress made on Dream #35 -
I made twin-sized quilts for both of my boys for Christmas! I had lots of help. Mom showed me the ropes and guided me through it. I had sisters and friends helping w/ ironing and the hand quilting. The quilts turned out beautifully and I am quite pleased with them. Although, they would need MUCH more hand quilting before I really considered them done. The actually quilting was so much harder than I thought it would be. The work was absolute torture in some moments – I even shed a few tears that last hour or so. I have a whole new appreciation for those old, beautiful quilts.
Surprisingly, I have also made some progress in my spiritual goals. Dreams 24 & 26 are in clearer view than they’ve been in a long time. I can’t believe it. I thought these dreams would be some of the last to develop. I feel much better . . .
Dream #32 – I’m still really hoping for an English concertina. Anyone?
Dream #36 – I’ve been preparing to write some articles for publication. Does that count?
Dream #37 – I applied to two different Waldorf schools for their First Grade teaching positions. We’ll se . . .
Dream #38 – Thanks to my eldest sister, we seven sisters now have a blog. : ) Check here.
Not too shabby, eh?
