Yesterday one of my best friends, Laurie Brown, passed away. She was one of those people who made every person feel as if she were the most important person in the world. She did that for me. No one wrote better notes of encouragement, knew what kind deed was needed and then did it or helped another person look good by doing the tasks needed for that to be accomplished and then stood in the background enjoying the other person's glory for a job well done.
She was my friend, a mentor, once my secretary in the stake young women and partner in the ward young women. I will miss her. She was one who was an angel on earth who would say things like "Give me a break!" or "Get a clue!" when people were too much wrapped up in the world.
I will miss her but my tears would be wasted if I didn't know that now she is in the presence of her husband and mother whom she lost when she was only 13. Good-bye, Laurie! I will miss you so much!

Quilting--I Love it!
It is so exciting to have time to quilt. For so many years, I have wanted to get into some of my creative projects but never had time to do it. I was busy with so many things. Now that I have simplified my life more, I am finding time to do those things that connect more with my feminine side. One of them is quilting. I made a random square quilt for Andy for Christmas. I put a lot of love into each square. I wonder what my next project will be.
