I've gotten through the month of July. I miss my niece and nephew but we're moving forward. I'll always miss them. There will always be a hole in my heart. But I've learned some very valuable lessons and I'm doing my best to honor their memories.
I've also been addressing some spiritual issues that have troubled me. I talked with my husband about them and have gotten the wide and wonderful shoulder that only he can provide for me to lay my troubles on and feel safe. It's amazing how that works.
I have lots of photography projects coming up. A friend at church and I will be doing pictures of families for a photo directory. I'm looking forward to it. Maybe we can use my backdrop. I'm also doing some photography for work. Just some basic pictures of the building and the department heads and the various teams. It might be fun!
More and more I'm dying to take pictures and improve my craft, but less and less do I find time for it! When life gets really stressful, I tend to find an escape and bury myself in it. Right now, I'm playing a pc game called Oblivion. It's a role playing fantasy game that David introduced me to and I've gotten my 50 hours of playing time out of it several times over. Whenever I do all the quests for one character, I create another. But it's an escape. Playing it means I'm not interacting with others. I'm not doing the other things I should do, but don't want to! I'm going to try this week to cut down on the escape time and increase the "other stuff" time!

Hugs my friend. I know the past week has been difficult on your entire family.......and I'm sorry you had to deal with your mom. Sigh.
What can I say?? We will never act like that!
It is my sincere prayer that the wind was blowing hard the day this apple fell from that tree!
