My To Do List this week was a total bust...but I was doing the important things...so no guilt...I'll get to the To Do's when I get to them. WOW! I think I've really embraced this new attitude...this new peaceful life! In my former life I would have been running around all day today to make up for lost time...NOPE! I didn't do it. I took a really long walk...started a pot of chicken soup for mom, and I spent some time in my sewing room. I finished Buster's quilt top...
Makes me very happy! Just have to share this picture of my Mr. Quilt Holder peeking over the top
So, I think I was successful...no guilt! More progress!

It's funny how in a typed blog entry you can sound happy. So what if you didn't make it to the gym--- you didn't wallow in things you couldn't help. You quilted, made chicken soup and laughed with that quilt holder.... It's not what you didn't do----it's what you did that matters....
The quilt is such a happy looking quilt.
A stressful and scary week, indeed. I'm glad the week ended with laughter. :-)
Buster's quilt is adorable.
Good attitude! Love that happy quilt top--and the mysterious, smiling man behind it looks nice, too.
What a wonderful post Carol!!! Big Hugs coming to you my "guilt free friend", LOL. Mr Quiltholder (aka McCuddely)...is that right? just looks so cute peeking over the quilt that I think you had better share that hug with him, cause you made me smile talking about trying to get the picture. Making me smile is certainly worth sharing a hug and I'm certain it was big enough to go around. *wink
Let's hear it for no guilt! What a gorgeous quilt, Carol, you did GREAT on taking care of yourself and letting things go....I can "hear" it in your post, I'm so happy for you!
So happy to hear your mom is feeling better and is out of the hospital.
The quilt top is so pretty- fresh and yummy colors! Enjoy your Sunday :-)
Love the quilt and the attitude - it is what it is and OhWell are my words for everyday - I like what Melanie said... It's what you did that matters. Have a lovely journey this weekend, whatever it takes to smile. Judy C
So he's back to being called 'Mr. Quilt Holder'???? LOL! Love Buster's quilt. Watch out, that name just might stick -- or Bubba for short!
It soooo is what you did that's important. Not what you didn't do!
This quilt is so cheery and dang cute. :) Great job, it will be cherished, for sure.
Congratulations! Progress indeed even if it wasn't EVERYTHING you had wanted to accomplish. You did what NEEDED to be done and that is alot by my measure. Thanks to you and Kelly, I'm enjoying my own little wellness report each week. And thanks to you, I'm learning to be guilt free! Thank you Carol. Hope your Mom continues to feel better and hope you have a great week.
A finished quilt top is always a success -- it's adorable Carol! And congratulations on your new wellness attitude!
What a great looking quilt!!!
Carol ..... I have been missing in action with having the dots and so sorry to hear all you have gone through with your mom...but so HAPPY AND OVERJOYED to hear she is home. Big, gigantic hugs to you all...and Mr. Quilt Holder looks pretty wonderful there holding that quilt!!!
Love this quilt! and chicken soup sounds divine...glad you were able to continue with a bit of "me" time.
Oh Carol - I'm so happy that you are doing well, and not pushing yourself too hard, especially with the week you had. I adore that quilt - it's just too cute! And, so nice to get to see Mr. Quilt Holder :)!!
super quilt - fun colors.
Love the holder peeking over the top, my holders always hide :
good for you to be staying positive!
Carol, Just wanted to let you know you were in my thoughts. Hoping all is well with you and yours and that your mom is still on the mend. Big Hugs...
