Has it really been almost a year since my last post?
As time always does, it feels like both
forever ago and just yesterday.
I think
it's been somewhere around nine months and five days, not that I counted or
anything.
Nine months, wow.
That's
one relaxing week at the
lake with the whole family plus three other families & their grown children
one 35mm Pentax camera to tentatively experiment with
one successful self-portrait session plus more than a few that weren't quite so successful
one spiritually blessed
week at the beach with some super cool youth from Hernando & one pretty
awesome youth leader
one first date followed by
seven more months filled with dates and hangouts with said youth leader
two almost sleepless weekends with young girls
after God's own heart
seven birthdays--all
celebrated with presents and cheer, even if a few were long distance
four and a half days and four nights nannying two energetic, precious boys
several trips to Alabama
all of them producing one treasure or another
one fundraiser, raising money to help abused children, photographed and crafted for
one neverending Christmas
celebration
one and a half sweaters
knitted--zero assembled
one wall of art perfectly
curated
two significant haircuts
countless moles dug up and shown off by the faithful hunter Jack & a few turtles found and loved on by the playful possessive Oscar
one and a half diagnoses
of fibromyalgia and an autoimmune something
five alternative
treatments
numerous migraine days
one amazingly designed
website--from
Imaginary Jane--that fits perfectly with my new business cards, magazine, welcome packets, and most of all, my logo--that finally came together with a few special touches from
