What Ever Happened To That Book?

Christmas, Darrell's daughter-in-law, Kristy gave me a beautiful journal and pen.  I am grateful for the gifts, not because she was thoughtful by purchasing something lovely (and they truly are lovely) for me but because she paid attention to who I am and what I like.  When I thanked her she told all Darrell's family that I am writing a book. 

How sweet and considerate!  I am truly grateful.

So, what ever happened to that book?

I haven't completely abandoned it but I certainly have not been a good nurturing parent either. 

A funny thing happened on my way to becoming a famous author and artist. 

I stopped grieving.  Not completely.  I have moments when I miss Les so much I break down but most of the time I am truly happy once again.  (Thank you, Darrell)

It is difficult to write a book about grief and dying when one is happy.  Just the same I do believe my book needs to be written for those out there who are grieving deeply and can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Therefore, I will dig out my old notes and get back to the book. A blogging friend of mine starts his day off with his Hour Of Power (HOP).  Every morning he dedicates one hour to improving himself.  I have decided to begin my own HOP which will be dedicated to the book.  An hour a day is enough time.  More time spent on such a dreary subject would start bringing me down and I don't like that person.

Thank you Rich, for your clever idea.  I am sure it will be quite beneficial to me as it is to you.
