tomorrow is my 39th birthday. i have been meditating on this fact for almost a year. 40 will seem like nothin'. i can't seem to wrap my head around 39. it is only a number, true. but, it holds some meaning. some meaning i seem to need to impose.
also, i think i am realizing that one may only get one or two good, deep friends in a lifetime. why does this strike me as strange? it does though.
i finished the top of the quilt. once i get the backing pieced, i will make the top-batting-back sandwich. then, i will be ready to quilt. i love hand stitching so much. all that to get to the actual quilting.

(p.s. when I get in trouble for that comment, can I come stay with you guys when I am out West?)
absolutely, that's what friends are for!
I thought you didn't have any friends?
Happy Birthday, Laura!
I think 39 is tricky because it's not 40, but it makes you realize that 40 is not only inevitable, it is next. But what do I know? I'm only 36 (which is not 40 but it is after 35, and makes me realize that I am in fact a grown-up, whether I like it or not).
I love your menagerie. Which figures would you most liken to your closest friends? (besides the one of you and Jan.)
39 is such a round, squiggly number and divisible by 13! So it must be lucky. Happy Birthday.
