ADJUSTING in Postcards 4

I remembered to wear pink every day this month. It’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Just because I don’t volunteer for the ACS any more doesn’t mean my passion to find a cure has lessened.

I pull the Crow Quilt out from the machine, and I am disappointed in the blandness of the work. It’s about half done now, and the gold crows vanish into the strong values of the background. I plug on.

I get used to days without the structure I created with my volunteer activities. Oh, I still volunteer. I’m doing this and that and this again. I read and play with my books. I think about getting rid of them. I have enough new books to keep me busy now, but pretty soon I will have to become a library patron again. I suggest that we stop by a bookstore or two, but he ignores me. Sensible man.
