Settled again, I write!

You have had the sense in my last few and far-between blogs that I have been in transition. My life changed radically when my husband of 37 years left. This painful process of divorce is one that has only been endured with the help of my Sovereign God, my loving and supportive family, and friends.

I decided to move closer to my aging parents, found full time work, and purchased a home of my own. The home was in decent condition, but was in need of some personalized color choices. I have been painting and decorating for the last three months!

Now, I feel at home. The biggest projects are done, and when I return home after a day’s work, I don’t have a brush to pick up or a nail to hammer. What my mind has turned to now with eagerness is writing again. Despite the difficulty of the last year, I did manage to knock out the story line of my next book, and now that I am settled, I will turn to the fleshing out of a new tale in the Schmidt family saga.

So, dear readers, I return to my happy place, my computer on my lap, and a story in my head to tell. I hope that wherever you find yourself in your life, be it a season of hardness or ease, you will find the time to do what makes you happy. If that happens to include reading my stories, send your good thoughts my way!
