As for the choice, we can't control everything. This is sad. You're letting yourself feel it. What you are choosing is not to let it bury you, and you are certainly not buried. You've thrown yourself into all sorts of groups and projects and service and...life these past months.

Only 1-2 inches of snow forecast for Tuesday so I should be able to get out of the house by then/the next party.<br /><br />AW: Thanks for the information.

I always thought I'd learn to quilt, but I never did and I think my eyes are too far gone now. <br /><br />I'm sorry you didn't get to your party, but you made the wise decision. Better safe than sorry. <br /><br />This is the time of year for melancholy and revisiting those old memories. I'm having a little of that too. I guess there's an epidemic.

I couldn't get one done in that short length of time.<br /><br />Thanks for the cyber hug, Asha.

I just couldn't believe I was the only one of the R.H. ladies who baled out today and it made me feel so old and insecure to think other in my peer group would dare take on the roads, and I didn't.

As for being down and weepy--I was that way the end of last week. It comes and it goes..and this time of year, it is very prevalent and NOTHING would have taken me out on the roads today-- nothing.
