Norma, glad to hear that things are going well for you and yours. as for FoQ, another year perhaps...

Norma, so good to hear from you again. I'm happy for you that things are going in very good and happy directions for you and you new boyfriend. Enjoy every minute! Glad you didn't forget us. We haven't forgotten you!

Norma, wishing you nothing but happiness! A friend of mine was in similar circumstances. She is so happy. Said she feels like a teenage again. It is just so nice to have someone to share things with.
We are gradually getting used to the new site. Don't give up on it yet. We love to hear from you.

Glad to know you are doing well with your new life Norma. Glad to see you back here on TQS.

What have you been working on quilt-wise? We'd love to see it.

Norma..Let me join the congratulation chorus !! Wishing you great joy and pleasure in his company.
And as for the silver hair....well, I don't think all the dye is good ! And the stranger in the mirror..who resembles
my grandmother...Well..she still startles me some days !!

So happy for you Norma that it has worked out well. I am sure silver hair suits you very well.

Congratulations, Norma! I'm so happy for you! I wish you and your new loved one all the best!!

Congratulations Norma,
I wish you much happiness...I've had silver hair for years I think it's lovely. How about a new photo off you?
Take care
Anne

So lovely to hear from you, I was wondering how it was going with your new man and how your parents are? Sorry you're not at FOQ but didn't expect you to be 2 years running.

Good luck with the ex wife, it'll be hard both sides. So glad you've found happiness xx

Norma, It is so good to hear about the happy life changes you are experiencing. Good for you! I agree about the long wait to make sure a post has really posted. I think I will write a note to Bob or Kathy and ask why that's so different. Again, I am so very happy for you please continue to show your face now and then. We miss you.

Thanks to Lois and Rosemary for missing me. I will explain a bit.
As I told some of you in Birmingham last year (and I don't come this year ) I met a man exactly a year ago. We fell in love and he moved in with me in Nov. It has been wonderful, challenging and all sorts of feelings since then. I was free as a bird when we met, having been single for over 30 years; he left a marriage that had not been working for many years and we had to cope with all the reactions from his friends and family. On my side there were mostly positive reactions.

We have been working on integrating him in my house and done a lot of work in the garden beside all the talking we do. Nearly every Monday I have friends coming over to sew and that is important, too. Status now is that I have seen most of his friends, I have met his two much elder brothers and their wives, a week ago I met his children and today his ex-wife is coming to visit us. This is huge. Happening way before I thought it possible. I'm very happy to be more a part of his life. Everything turns out to be for the good for all of us.
And to add to all this emotional stuff TQS changed the website. I absolutely hate the long answering times here, so I think more than twice before posting. But I still love you all and I read along when I have time. Last thing from me: my hair turned white. No, not because of him or TQS, but because I wanted to see, how bad it looked . Tired of getting my hair dyed every five weeks. After a week I don't get a chock when I meet a mirror .Hugs to you all

Hi there Norma, how are you doing? Will you be making it to FoQ this year?

Good to hear from you, Norma. We've missed you. Hope you have been well.
