Calming Influences

This is Miss Molly. She belongs to my blogless friend, Diane.

Miss Molly

Miss Molly loves to be with her people and Diane says that just being with Molly's quiet calmness makes her blood pressure drop.

We all need those calming influences in our lives. They may be animate or inanimate, active or passive. Mountains and oceans are two of mine and, lately, I miss having them near. Maybe I need a Miss Molly in my life?

Speaking of mountains . . . I've recently come back to this work in progress from Meg Manderson's workshop at Blue Ridge Quiltfest last spring. I was inspired by the mountains around us, though some see ocean waves--either way, I feel ready to finish this reminder of a couple of my calming influeces.

Miss Molly is pretty darn cute. However, I think I would get pretty stressed out trying to take care of a goat around here. I don't think she could fit through the cat door and come and go on her own.

I am in love with Miss Molly! I would love to have a goat. Of course, my dream of a goat farm is one of those dreams which is probably better as a dream, rather than reality.
