Hooo boy!

Today is the last day of September and the rest of my year isn't going to slow down too terribly much. The person behind HaveHeart Magazine has a new publication coming out, a monthly print magazine called Home&Harvest Magazine that will be focusing on the Palouse. Guess who is writing for it? Yeah, me LOL! Let's see, trying to finish writing an e-cookbook to publish, married, work full-time, have my jewelry and art business and now I will be contributing to a magazine once a month. I AM NUTS!!!!!!! Looking forward to it tho, it is a great reason to get out and about again with my camera and do more exploring the Palouse while documenting it all. First issue is out in November, so will be starting this soon. In other news, Selena Jude is settling in, tho she is still skittish.

She gave him a dose of steroids to get him thru the weekend so everyone could say goodbye. Little snot perked up and has been eating everyone out of house and home since. So we decided to hold off for now as he is pretty much back to his old self. Now we just need to see about what else to do fo

My Grandmother’s Hands

I have an expanded version of an essay I did a while back when I realized I had my grandmothers' hands. It is now online at HaveHeart Magazine , a new online magazine. My Grandmother’s Hands "I’m not sure when it happened, but I looked at my hands one day and realized they weren’t my own anymore, they were my grandmother’s. When I was younger my hands were smooth and unscarred. They would always be my hands, me, and no one else’s. Then I started noticing other things, the fine lines on my lips, the little wrinkles around my eyes. When did that happen? When you are young, everyone is old and you never imagine you will also be old someday. So waking up to my grandmother’s hands was a bit of a shock. I never noticed I was getting old. Doesn’t help when your brain keeps insisting you are still in your 20s! What happened?"
