In five hours or less (maybe a LITTLE bit more sneaking into the wee hours of August 1st) I will have officially finished my rough draft for my book that I've been writing for 6 YEARS! Oh my gosh. My heart is jumping around like crazy! I have goosebumps and my grin couldn't be any bigger. It's becoming a reality folks! And yes yes yes, there is soooo much work to be done, but still. I'm just that much closer to a finished product. It wasn't a step in the right direction, it was a giant leap. This is the hard part. The rest is just being nit picky and making sure to get everything right. I have faith in myself and in God that this will happen. I'd be a fool to stop now! Wish me luck world. Who knows, in a year I could be sitting behind a table somewhere promoting my book. Oh what a world this is. I'm in love with the life God gave me through the good times and the hard. It hasnt' been an easy road, but God has shown me grace, mercy, forgiveness, and strength and I honor Him for all of it. Praise be to the Almighty One!

P.S.- my friend told me the FUNNIEST story the other day. For background info: She works at Bethel in the kitchen over the summer and a group of Asian folks were visiting. It goes a little something like this.
Asian woman (with heavy accent) "Where ees da juth?"
Ann: (confused) "What ma'am?"
Asian woman: (even more intently) "Where ees da juth?"
Ann: (convinced that the woman wants to know the TRUTH) "You want me to tell you the Truth?"
Co-worker: (tapping ann quickly) "Juice ann! Juice! She wants some juice!"
And here we thought she was wanting Ann to witness to her! haha. Oh I love it. Night folks
I would love to read said draft or just a chapter or two... your choice. I'm a teacher now reading is my life. MAKE IT HAPPEN
