coming out of it



after about a week of pretty severe despair, i think today is the day that i must begin to move forward again.

i have been wanting to memorialize beener in some way, so i will go to target this weekend and buy a collage picture frame of some sort to make a pic for by my desk.

i was talking to kirsten yesterday, and she was telling me about a stone marker she got for kali...since been's ashes will be scattered out back this summer, i thought that a marker of some sort might be nice. i went online looking for one, and they were really expensive!!

then this morning, a blog i read about gardening sent me to a new seed place. they have a stone marker KIT you can buy, that has a whole complete alphabet and molds to make whatever words you want. i ordered it because it was not that expensive, and i can also make plant markers for some of my herbs, and even stepping stones if i get really ambitious. several years ago, i took a stained glass class, and have always wanted to make "glass" bricks to line a walkway, i think this kit will help me do that, and add words!!!

can't you just see scripture written out along a pathway in a garden?! i can :))

happy weekend friends.

Did you do it? I can imagine that would be therapeutic. Make sure to show us your results.

yes, i oredered it. i decided to spread Been's ashes right by the front step, because in this house, that was his fave spot. i will make several different "bricks" to put in the grass by the steps - they will say:

God's
Good
Gift
Been

:) i think it will be good.
