Sentimental Journey

Today as I get ready to sandwich a quilt to do the quilting on my split rail quilt the tv is going on and I realized I am tired of all the negative we are hearing.  The bickering you have on the political scene.  I have noticed the commercials for people running for office aren’t telling you what they stand for but what how the other person is a crook.  Then on our local channel they are announcing how you can get “Unicorn spit” on some of your drinks.  ENOUGH.  It is even on facebook.  NO Television, NO Facebook today.  I will be putting my music on and live in lala land where all is good.  I find I am getting grumpy and need to back up and start over.

NOW here goes.  We are getting some much needed rain right now and it sounds so nice and tranquil lightly hitting the windows.  Almost like a wind chime outside.  This is the type rain that as a child we would be outside and play in.  This month has been a reflective time for me.  What I have decided is that we are a strong family, my children and grandchildren are there for us many times before we even realize it.  No matter how many miles are between my siblings and their families we are a strong and close family and are so blessed to have each other.

Now this quilt won’t get on the machine if I don’t stop writing and get to work.  Have a great day and hug that someone special today.
