SLOWLY GETTING MY LIFE BACK

C:\Documents and Settings\Phyllis\My Documents\blog heading.jpg
I think it's time for a new entry.  4 months have passed since the fire.  All 
the units were so badly destroyed that the association members voted not 
to  rebuild.  So far, State Farm has taken good care of me and I'm comfortably 
settled in an apartment until further action takes effect as to the mortgage 
payoff and more insurance claims, etc.
Every day I think of something I lost that was precious to me and impossible to 
replace.......then I have to remember my favorite Grandma Moses quote:
"Life is what you make it.  Always has been and always will be"..... or words to 
that effect.  
So, it's time to do just that.... make my life, starting at a new place and continuing 
on from there.
I'm teaching my classes at the local quilt shop and keep busy with my post card 
swap groups and enjoying my life's blessings of a wonderful family, good friends and great children and grand children.  After all, when it comes to the bottom 
line, these things matter the most.
