Well I started my new job last Friday as a Church secretary PT. It is going great and any hesitation I had about the job is gone. I am doing alot of computer work producing bulletins, monthly newsletters and power point presentations among alot of other miscellaneous clerical duties. My official title is "Communications Secretary". This picture is what I have been working on for the last week or so. I may have mentioned that I rec'd 644 blocks of the disappearing 9 patch block. I have 8 tops completed with one of those being completely finished. These will all be donated to Wrap Them in Love organization which donates to orphanages overseas. You could check them out here http://www.wraptheminlove.org if you want to see a fabulous quilt gallery and see what they do.
I have started collecting clothes for a missionary who serves in the Ukraine. We are collecting clothing for the orphanages she works in over there. Last year she did this clothing drive in five different churches and she ended up collecting 600 LBS of clothing. This year I told her I would help ship the boxes to her in the Ukraine. It will be lots of work, but God willing, many orphans will be blessed with new to them clothes! I guess in the Ukraine clothing is very cheaply made and what is available is very expensive. I will let you know know everything goes.

Neat tops!!! Thanks for all the work you do for WTIL.
Janet, I'm kind of new at this blogging thing and I noticed a comment on my blog that asked me a question and I didn't get right back to it. Sorry--so I'll answer you here also...We lasted on the Master Cleanse for 5 days. More than I've done in the past. We are now curtailing the carbinated drinks and I replace them with Fortune Delight which is a tea from Sunrider that is an herbal tea that tastes delicious and helps cleanse my body. I'm now returning slowly to advise by two previous doctors of my need to eliminate all wheat and corn products and derivatives from my diet. That's the hard one and I know it, but experience from the past has shown that the weight I carry is from these products, because I'm allergic to them, I also get addicted to them and it's a vicious cycle. So here's to the day by day progress!
I'm so glad you are enjoying your new job!
