What none of us expected was how freeing it became for her! None of realized how isolated she had become. She flourished (took a little while tho.). She found new purpose as an advocate for those too retiring or shy to ask for what they needed. She also started a little reading group that met on Saturdays. They occasionally had teas... She crafted a wonderful life there. Best wishes to you all.Becky Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17766885506874699243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554378824181841688.post-29559149835379491192012-06-10T19:24:37.965-07:002012-06-10T19:24:37.965-07:00All 4 little quilts are lovely!
