After 5 days, I still don't how to comment. I'm thinking of you, and hope your quilt stash extras become someone's treasure overseas.

I'm not a frequent commenter but I thought I'd stop by and let you know you've been in my thoughts. Glad to see you back.

Thank you for that link! I stash dived a bit last night, more tonight.

Part of the joy of love is taking them for granted. The sucking part is when you can't. Big hugs.

What they said. Be kind to yourself and take the time you need. If you don't, you will get bitten in the butt (ask me how I know). Hugs from Middle Earth.

You make an excellent point. I remember that after 9/11 Dale and I walked around for days telling each other how loved we were. And then we fell back into our old ways. Sure, he knows I love him, but I could probably tell him why. Thank you for this gentle reminder.
I've been thinking about you.

Thanks for the IBOL link. I certainly have some supplies I'm not using that someone else could.
Big Alice | Homepage | 09.01.09 - 12:55 pm | #

It's sure to be slow-going for a while (i.e., until it's not) and that's OK.

Thank you for using your space to remind us all to let our loved ones know now why we treasure them. And to promote such a worthy charity.

Many hugs to you and your boys.
