WELCOME BACK

I was actually working at a jobsite for a few weeks this last month with a big silver maple storybook tree in the backyard that was home to like a thousand squirrels. Anyway, I thought of you and was like “too bad she’s not around anymore” BUT NOW YOU ARE.

I’m still trying to keep up the smile and heal, but it’s been really nice to have some time alone these last few days with just me and my Heavenly Father. I…[Read more]

@silverdragon Last year, but I’ve been horribly inactive since I started college.  Have you been to SW?

@scribbles, Ew, commutes.  Do you like audiobooks?

@graceabounds2129, right now the game plan is to finish the year with some reading and cleaning and Christmasing.  After that, I’ll get Beta Sun (my WIP) underway and then start work…[Read more]

I’m sorry I haven’t been on much lately and I hope to remedy that soon. You guys are a huge inspiration, encouragement, and support for me, so, thank you.
