For most of my life, no one said, "I'm a Christian". If religion came up in a private conversation people might say which church or denomination. I am really, really tired of hearing it. It means nothing. Only your behavior means something.

The quilt is done. Hand appliqued, and machine pieced. Hand quilted, except for the last border which was a bit wonky, but a friend with a longarm fixe it.

While still getting used to being alone, listening to hearings, and stressing about the 2024 elections, I did finish a quilt top. It still needs quilting but I'll send it out to a longarm quilter.

Turned on msnbc and the first thing I heard was trash story about President Biden and his election chances. Turned it off after 4 words. Cannot take the constant fear mongering. Have they never heard that a positive attitude makes for positive outcomes?

@cooltxchick It's as if it's 1958 when a woman told me that if I went to the birthday party of a black friend, that white kids wouldn't want to be around me any longer. In Berkeley CA for God's sake. Long story short, seems I had good white friends. Didn't lose a single one. It's a shame.
