My picture was selected to go into a Schmap for Houston, Texas. I didn’t even know it existed. I just approved the photo to be used:
Pretty nifty 
Take a look thorugh the tour of Houston they are putting together. I think it’s pretty awesome. My picture should be under Top Attractions soon.

Hey I thought that since I have been doing more and more crafts, I should give them a place among the blogs. And so, http://www.stitchwhimsy.com has been born. Please take a look at it and tell me what you think!

Oh yes! I have been busy busy busy this week. True, the online craft club has helped to spur me onward. Within 3 days I made a hat, a purse, and a cell phone case. I am now working on a scarf in a different color than the hat I just made.

I also went and purchased 5 new skeins of yarn yesterday. All those, plus the ones my mother was so generous as to share with me, are here:
TEEHEE!!! If anyone has any good groups or tutorials for learning to crochet more complex patterns and such, please do share. I have the basics down, but now I want to tackle something more challenging.

So glad I have books to keep me company. I have just added a few to my reading list. I can’t wait to get them in-hand so I can begin the journey through the pages. I have decided against reading any more of “Buttercup’s Baby” (sequel to The Princess Bride). I read a few pages in and it totally didn’t grab me. So that one is out. I am going to try and read these:
Avi is a childhood favorite author of mine. Wicked comes highly recommended from a friend. The I Hate You book is the predecessor to Sometimes I act Crazy, which I own and have already read. The others are just books I have an interest in reading for myself. I will probably end up reviewing the I Hate You and Lost in the Mirror books on my mental health blog. The others will more likely go here or my vox blog.

Here is my Wordless Wednesday for today. My son had me take pictures of him this morning so I thought I would share.

Looking at the counter over on my sidebar it has been over two months since I said goodbye to the possibility of having to buy bunk beds any time soon. I keep trying not to think about it. I might take the counter off, since every time I come here I see it and am reminded of my tragedy.
In other news, the novel that I have been working on for the last 5 years or so of my life has finally taken form, a different form. It is a series of stories trapped inside one book. It is also written differently. It’s not all true, it’s not all false. It’s interesting, though…and will be released within the next year. That is, if I can continue to write as I have been. It’s going well, though. The memoirs of me are no longer being written. I can’t do it. It’s too much…so this is my alternative.

I can still see her, hair sparkling in the sunshine. She almost became the sun. Her face gleamed with tears that told the story. She waved goodbye as we pulled away, determined not to look back. It killed me to leave her there. The crazies and the drunks…drug rehabs are full of them…but not her. Why her? She seemed to be losing her luster, even as I watched her in my mind’s eye. I yearned to keep her near, but God knew that I would only enable her vice. She wanted to drown the pain. The pain. That insatiable hound who filled her eyes with fear. I hated him. I could only pray now… that she found her sanctuary. That pain would be left at bay there within the confines of professionals. I could only hope…and pray.
