I'm not sure what the neighbors over here think so far, since we've not heard much from them. The previous tenants are the owners of the house, so who knows?!? Thanks Kristin!

I've had the same experience as you regarding clean (or not) homes. Cleaning two houses in a short amount of time is exhausting -- physically and mentally. On the upside, the people who lived in our house before us were so weird and such slobs that we could hardly do any wrong. The minute I brought the flower boxes from the balcony at our old place and hung them at the new place, the neighbors loved us. ;-) Welcome to the neighborhood!

Sometimes, quilting can take you away from it all, but when "it all" is something huge, quilting isn't always possible. Hopefully now that things are looking a bit better, you can do something quilty for you if that would relax you and take the edge off!

I swear I should have gone for the lighter colored wood in the house, but no, I have to fall in love with dark cherry, which means seeing dust is almost a constant thing. But if it's on something else where it's not jumping out at me, I can ignore it rather well! Rian, I’m a little bit that way about dust too, if I can see it!

Can't wait to see pictures of your new quilting space. I think that statement about visual chaos could also include mental chaos - I couldn't concentrate on a single thing in the last couple of weeks, but hopefully the worst is behind us now.

Period. Dust is another thing. If there is a layer of dust on the furniture, I am stuck. It's almost like magic--I dust the furniture and creativity flows again. Wierd. I can’t be creative in a mess.
