Hi Ruth,

-> Bears, believe me.  Squirrels don't live in that area.

 RH> The bears ate them out of house and home!

Doubtful.  Chipmonks are more indigenous to the area tho.

-> OK, had your challenge for a while.  My cutting table & various sewing
-> areas are full of projects--fleece for bear bodies (we've got to
-> etc.  Have to get that place in ship shape before pack out.  Same as my
-> cookbook recipe clipping area. (G)

 RH> Same as most of my house.  I'm a packrat's packrat, and stuff
 RH> accretes.  I don't have to buy anything; it just sort of shows up and


Be glad you don't have to move every few years.  The longer we stay in a
place, the more stuff builds up.


 RH> stays a while.  In this case, I'd have needed a long-arm quilting

 RH> easily.  Since those cost in the thousands and one would need a room
 RH> to itself, I don't own one.

Let your fingers do the walking thru the Yellow Pages to find a local
quilt shop. A lot of them have long arm machines and will either quilt
a project for you or teach you how to use it & you can rent time. I'd
love a long arm but have more space constrictions than you, plus having
to meet weight allowance every so often.  That's why most of my projects
are small or quilted in sections.

 RH> June in Texas means never having to say "Honey, I'm home!"

After an FTX, no.  He was riper than the bananas that are in our fridge
right now. He had showered and put on clean clothes before supper so he
didn't stink as bad as the anchovies he tried putting on our pizza once.
He only put them on half but after baking the pizza, the smell permeated
the whole thing. That was one even he had trouble eating.
