“I have given skill to all the skillful, so that they may make all that I have commanded you. “ Exodus 31:6


“O Thou who art the all pervading glory of the world, we bless Thee for the power of beauty to gladden our hearts.
We praise Thee that even the least of us may feel a thrill of the creative joy when we give form and substance to our thoughts and, beholding our handiwork, find it good and fair. “.
Walter Rauschenbusch

"Come, and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for me.
I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the LORD woud not have listened and heard my voice in prayer.
Praise be to God, Who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me!" Psalm 66:16-20

I went for five minutes.......

and wound up staying for nearly 2 hours !

My 35th high school reunion was held this weekend.  This is the first time I've been around to attend one, so I haven't seen most of these people in all those years.    I skipped the football game gathering last night , since I never cared much for the sport, but I decided to just pop my head into the get-together at a restaurant this afternoon. 

Well, before you know it, I was hugging, and smiling, laughing and talking, with faces so familiar, yet so changed ! 

The couple I sat with included a 'boy' who I wouldn't have been caught DEAD talking to in 8th grade..............GROSS, ........ewwwwwwww...........and they couldn't have been more fun to sit with and catch up on school days !  

So, no pictures tonight, as I don't know if they would want me to post them for the world to see......(I used to be really decided about NOT wanting my picture on the worldwide web !). 

Back to quilting on Monday, hopefully, if it's not raining and I can baste in the yard. 

Enjoy your weekend........get out your old yearbook, and have a little stroll down memory lane.  It's a TRIP !
