Quotes

  • Actual happiness looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. And, of course, stability isn’t nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand. - Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
  • Education
    "Must we always teach our children with books? Let them look at the stars and the mountains above. Let them look at the waters and the trees and flowers on Earth. Then they will begin to think, and to think is the beginning of a real education." -David Polis
  • "Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it... but by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one becomes to feeling ill... Thus if one just keeps walking, everything will be all right." -Soren Kierckgaard
  • Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. - Albert Camus
  • How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. Annie Dillard

Sewing spree

Silas and Levi bought me a new sewing machine for Christmas.  I am very excited about my gift and started right in on Christmas day making napkins to match my new placemats.

Michelle, i love your sewing machine, it looks very nice. Your coordinating double sided place mats and napkins look fantastic!! I like the bags too, I can't believe you just whipped those up! I got lots of sale stuff today, some x-mas mark downs and some clearance fabric, I spent $35 and 'saved' $75 off my order. Most things I bought were 75% off! You have inspired me to sew again!!Keep up the good work and the PHOTOS!
