This past year and half has been a struggle with my depression. One thing that I have realized, I do so much better when I have a way to go back and see how far I have come. I don't keep up with journals or diaries, but when I was keeping up with my blog, my mood was much improved. So...I'm going to try again. I may blog about more than just quilting, I also scrapbook and do genealogy research, all of which have fallen by the wayside, so I'll be working on that too!
I was successful in completing a Christmas gift this week, it was a small book for me and my siblings of pictures us together through the years. Here are a few pages:
Disclosure: I use software called Artisan purchased from Forever.com - I am an Ambassador (their name for a consultant) so I get a discount when I purchase anything, including the books I order. I've been using a version of this software for over 10 years to do digital scrapbooking.
I find blogging helps me too with many things. Your book is super. I am sure your family will enjoy going through it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Shasta! I've committed to once a week until the new year, then ramp it up a bit. I took a quick look at your blog and can't wait to savour it this evening when I have more time.
