Hi, Everyone,
Thanks for stopping by and visiting my website!
Check out the new article on self-esteem on my homepage. Very informative and uplifting! The article was suggested by a student at the  Mesa Valley High School in Arizona. The students have been visiting my website and they love it! How inspiring and uplifting- thanks students!

It has been a crazy month around here!
Hubby came home from school on Thursday, August 23, with his first "school cold" and I got it too by Sunday evening. Wow- hit me really hard with bronchitis, laryngitis, flu, fever for 3 days, and didn't do a thing for four days! Sheesh. Got to the Dr. the next day and got the antibiotics. One more day to go with them. I guess there is a new (?) virus going around and it is nasty. The cough (they say) lasts for weeks!
I painted my kitchen before I got sick, and was in the middle of painting the family room when it hit me. So, that is on hold until the cough is over. (Dr's. orders.)

Been really busy in between being sick, with grants and CCAPL stuff. Had to cancel one important meeting due to sickness.

I have had a few gals for my W.I.S.H. groups and hopefully more coming next Monday to get help.

September 27, and 28, (for work), I have a workshop on domestic violence and abuse, and the guest speaker is: Lundy Bancroft!!!!! Wow! How exciting to hear him speak and to meet him! I'm taking his book, "Why Does He Do That?"- the book I use for W.I.S.H. groups and have him autograph it for me! If you have not read this book, you really need to! Mr. Bancroft explains everything about domestic violence, abuse, and power and control of an abuser. (I'm also going to offer my books to him.) 

I'm off and running this morning with many errands to do and places to go. I'm trying to catch up on stuff I had to put off while being sick.

We finally got so much-needed rain! All the critters here are doing well.
I'm taking tomatoes and corn to the nursing home this morning as I have done so many freezer bags of tomatoes, peppers and corn, I'm done with it! 

Take care and be safe!
My best to you,
Becky :)
