When One Door Closes...

Well, that which I most dreaded has come to pass. I'll get over it, but sometimes I wish God wasn't so generous in granting me opportunities to have to rely totally on Him since there is no way I could handle something on my own. I plan, and God laughs. :-p I'm considering getting Romans 12:1 tattooed somewhere I can read it often. More to come on this subject later.

In the good news category: Mindflights has accepted my short story "Insanity Purple" for publication. It should be published sometime in the next 18 months... My acceptance to submission ratio has jumped from 0/1 to 1/2. I'm pretty happy with that.

I started a bellydance class at the community center with my sister tonight. It was fun. I'm going to be sore--forget that, I'm already sore--but exercise is good.

It was a bad weekend, but the week is starting to look better...

Congratulations!!! That is exciting. Is this the one I got to read? I loved it. When it gets published, I want to know. I want to get a copy of Mindflights.

So awesome!!!

Maybe we need to have lunch to celebrate? My treat.

Jett is so cute! I'm glad he enjoyed playing with Uncle Eric so much. We had a blast visiting, though I was disappointed when I looked at my pictures and realized we didn't have any of Emberlyn :(
But then I remembered the family picture you gave us, yay!
