i'm still here

well, i'm still here.  

it's been months since i've written.  the main reason for that is that i've been busy.  also, i took some months off from communication of any type unless it was absolutely necessary.  i've moved, i've moved the store, i'm preparing to move the store AGAIN!  

i've been feeling extra-anxious lately.  the new house (i'm renting a small house) has some moisture issues.  and now there's a hurricane and the resulting flooding in houston and all the thoughts, feelings and memories come rushing back (they are never gone) but seeing the pictures that i try very hard to avoid make it so much harder!

i'm very happy to report to that i'm moving the bookstore to a prime location (where the bookstore i used to manage was) and it should finally allow me to support myself living my dream.  there's some anxiety that goes along with that but i'm feeling positive about it overall.

can't explain how much i wish daddy were here to see all of this!  i miss him to my core.  the grief is terrible!

grace and peace

  1. Amy, I came across your blog on someone else's post on my fb - I just joined the mainstream. I'm so sorry for the loss of your daddy. I knew he was really sick but didn't know he had died, you had moved, etc. Your writing is powerful. I am praying for your continued healing and for you in those moments when you feel so all alone. Love you! Cindy E in Nashville.

  2. Hey Cindy,

    Thanks so much. Glad you found the blog. My writing has fallen off as I prepare to move my store (my bookstore will be on granny white just across from lipscomb in the next few weeks) I hope to get back to regular posting very soon. Writing has always been a source of comfort for me. Love you!
