I'm still reading but Life has gotten in the way a LOT.

First it was a bad crown - the dentist couldn't see me for three weeks.  By the time they saw me the root was well infected and the whole tooth had to come out.  Then the pain returned and two more molars loose!  Fortunately, it was the trauma from the pulling that caused that and then a week of acetominophen and back to normal for now.  Then a touch of vertigo - one can't do much when that comes on.  I also seem to get an electrolyte imbalance when I eat too much salty food, so another week gone as I tried to deal with that.  In the meantime, I try to keep up with grandson and email and not much else.  Hope to post a quilt picture and a review, but for now just wanted to say I'm still here.  Hope to get back to quilting soon as I found an great new site that has a BOM (block of the Month for you non-quilters) that is really nice and a challenge.  I bought a book entitled Quilt Mavens - Perfect Paper Piecing by Deb Karasik and Janet Mednick (ISBN: 1574329193) which should help me to conquer sharp points.  I've added a few more books to my for sale in the Needlecraft quilting category - once I make the quilt I want and learn the technique, I like to pass these on to other quilters, so check them out at Angie's Bookshelf .

As to reading I have picked up and interesting work by Jared Rosen and David Rippe recommended on the Simple Living Newsletter from the Simple Living Network - It's about turning your world around -from an upside-down world to a right-side up one.  Can't tell you much at this point - just started it- but it could be life changing...

Until later - take care of your teeth!
