So cute!<br />I agree with you 1,000% when you say "focus on being with people who make me ridiculously happy, and doing things that bring me joy as much as is possible"... that's exactly what I decided to do the I turned 45! No regrets...and MANY happy days since then! :-) moosecrafthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309739222008330155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-2302627081466887182018-03-25T14:09:16.922-04:002018-03-25T14:09:16.922-04:00Learned that Joy lessons long time ago!

We really do need to be more careful about how we fill our time. I've noticed that a result of me posting a little less that I have less comments to respond to. Although I really LOVE getting comments, I want my quilting time as well and it's usually one or the other. That's why I still haven't jumped on the Instagram train too other than using it for family and to follow just a very few quilters who don't blog anymore. It all adds up to a huge time-suck.:)audreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102559813211702736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-71884336003571470842018-03-23T17:18:43.437-04:002018-03-23T17:18:43.437-04:00Kathy, your post hit home for me, too.

When I read your blog posts, I am inspired, because I know that you work hard, yet seem to still accomplish what you want. I definitely need to cut back on social media, and I need to find other ways to slow down and smell the roses. Part of the problem is clutter, and that is something I am working on this year. Cleaning out the closets and drawers, nooks and crannies, somehow relates to clearing out clutter in my mind, too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-31043784668511075942018-03-23T11:25:57.067-04:002018-03-23T11:25:57.067-04:00What a sweet little train quilt!

And spending time with upbeat people is a key life lesson for happiness, I think :)Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-13175671487375226762018-03-23T11:10:18.704-04:002018-03-23T11:10:18.704-04:00Congrats on being on QuiltCam!

I do have facebook and Pinterest but none of the others and I do limit my time on those... I did just buy time with Craftsy to make my creativity in my new space soar ... and to give me tips on cooking and gardening... some things I am interested in spending time on as well.<br />Sorry your job is stressful! That is certainly no fun but glad you could play hooky and got your photo shared :D Well worth the time away from a stressful job!!! I love your quilt... my honey is a train fanatic as well... no kids here though to pass it on too... hope it doesn't have to wait too long for the right recipient .. it is sooo cute!
