October is a special month, I get to go on two quilt retreats.  Although, they were different from each other both were excellent.  I got lots done and had even more fun.

One important discovery:  The Duck Song.  Give it a listen!

And I thought about how sometimes one has to take a step back in order to go forward.  That can mean the actual act of setting aside time and therefore not doing other things.  Or it can mean the process of sorting out and preparing for a next step.  Or starting over to make things go in a preferred manner.  This is certainly why seam rippers were invented.

My plan is to continue to make time for the important things and people in my life.  How about you?  Are you matching your time spent with your priorities?  This is a reminder I seem to need frequently.
