My first post

I retired last April from my job at a college. While working there I typed all day on the computer and helped students, enjoyed my co-workers and was very busy. So of course I thought when I retired there would so much free time. Well lots of things happened after April and I am still looking for that free time but I am enjoying the time I have to sew, garden and be with my grandchildren. Before this I had never taken part in blogs, but now I do and I guess for quite awhile I was a lurker, reading and not commenting. That too has changed. I have commented on many things on the blogs that I read daily and in response I sometimes receive the most beautiful e-mails in return. My world is growing, I am meeting so many special people and enjoying their ideas and the beautiful things they sew, crochet, knit, cook and their love for their families. So I begin my blog . . . .
