oh, that makes sense. I'm glad you at least weren't in the path of destruction, and hope that when it *does* work out for you to get to Houston, we can spend some time together! I'd so love to meet you :)

Looking forward to meeting you as well!!

Have your cameras ready and your finger nimble on your keypads to keep us all well informed.

I know I'm beyond blessed to be moving back to Houston. I will take loads of pictures when I begin attending, I promise. How did I not realize you live in the path of Sandy??? I am so sorry. :( We are well used to hurricane issues, that's for sure. Some parts of Houston are still recovering from Ike....:sigh:....

I wish I could go but our son's situation and finances prevent any big trips. Hopefully, things will be on track for either next year or 2015. Give Alex and Ricky hugs from all of us.

Well we all have to have our dreams - it relieves the living nightmares. :lol: Terrie good luck with the surgery. Ann I am glad that you are over that heart episode and hope it is now fixed. Margarita I am sorry to hear that you are still suffering with sciatica, such a painful condition. I won't be at Houston either - it's a bit too far for this year. Maybe next year? See y'all there someday. Those of you who are going don't forget to take photos and post like Lois says, we love to see the event if we can't be there.

I will be recovery from surgery, but hopefully in another year or two. The UK ones sound good, could combine a trip abroad and check into all the quilt events at the same time. But think Houston might be more doable.


yes, I am a dreamer... :roll:

Sorry to hear so many will not be there this year, I'll miss you. I will be there this year, taking one year at a time. Pat

I am not going to be at Houston this year either. Life at the Rowland household has been a roller coaster of ups and downs and we are now on an up so we feel good for now. I had a major heart episode (not a heart attack) but ventricular tachycardia. Last Monday the doctors did a procedure that is supposed to be a cure so the event will not happen again. So for now all is well.

I wish we could come to Houston again this year but I know it is not on the agenda. Maybe next year. Have fun everyone, shop lots for me as I am the "shopping queen" and I miss that. Especially touching and feeling all of Ricky's hand dyes. And spending a fortune for a small bag of stuff from Superior. But there is the internet and I can get what I need (not necessarily what I want when I am in Houston)

So have fun everyone and know I am with you in spirit. Hugs, Ann

Margarita, Hopefully by the time I am able to make this trip your sciatica will be better and I'll be able to meet you too.
