bet those gators could herd the cats, if the cats move fast enough to not
get caught for lunch that is.

Polly, there is a tremendous difference between LEADING cats and
HERDING cats. Just thought I'd point that out.
Smiles,

close proximity to so many gators could change a body.
dont ya have to yell and stomp your feet to get their attention.
then run like the wind or faster.

Um...on 10/11, you posted "Update on me...some OT".....As the long
time posters know, we left Oregon where most of our children and
grandchildren live so I could care for my ailing mother. After 10
months
she graduated from hospice and DH and I got an apartment here in
northern
Idaho. After a lot of looking, I finally got a job as a motel
housekeeper.
It wasn't long until my hours were cut to about 15/week. Living here
is not
what we want so we started looking for work back in Oregon. We think
we
have found it. We will know for sure the 20th. I've continued to
make
quilt tops and occasionally even finish a quilt or quilted item.
Everything
I've done is pictured in my webshots album.
So, not sure what has you upset about OT posts....people in glass
houses/he who is without sin.....and all that stuff

With much respect for your opinion, I don't think I'd like this group
near as
much if it were just predominantly a quilting Q&A forum.
I do enjoy the OT posts. I don't know the posters here very well, but
I've
hung around enough to know that I'd *like* to, so that type of post
gives
me a lot of insight into the RL side of folks. I welcome that.
I hardly ever post personal stuff, because no one here knows me
either,
but I did post OT about my cat a week ago. I went to the P.O. a few
days later, and there were several cards/letters with the kindest
sentiments
written in them, and fabric squares too. It just meant so much to me.
I
am in the process of trying to thank those folks now. I don't think
anyone
knows how much I treasured those letters. It wasn't just the cards, or
the
fabrics, it was the fact that someone, somewhere cared enough about me
and my old yellow cat to send them.
You don't get that in a strictly informational newsgroup. I like
Cindy's
analogy to a quilter's bee.
I nearly didn't write that post. I am so glad now that I did.
Maybe if everyone is very diligent to mark such posts "OT" it would
be easier for the folks who are not interested.

I've been subscribing to rctq for almost 12 years - this isn't the first
time, by far, and I'm sure it won't be the last time that this subject has
come up. When I first subscribed there was quite a flame war in progress
over this very topic.
I can't imagine not getting to know all of you through all the OT
discussions. I've never been to a quilt bee, meeting, get-together
(whatever you want to call it) yet where anything and everything wasn't
discussed!
For those who don't want to read subjects that aren't of interest to them -
don't! You can always ignore the threads you're not interested in. I don't
always read every post, sometimes I don't have time, sometimes I'm not
interested in that particular discussion, but that doesn't mean that
discussion shouldn't be there just because I'm not interested.
I appreciate all the wonderful friends I've made on rctq, quite a few of
them I've met in person and felt like they were old friends the minute we
met face-to-face.
