I'm Tiffany. I think the top of my blog says alot already about me but here is some more fun facts.<br />
<br />
I am originally from Ohio and moved to Texas in 2002. I learned to cross stitch from my grandmother and the other yarn arts I like to try I got from my mom such as crochet. I am trying to teach myself to knit as well and learning how to loom.<br />
<br />
I'm married and have three sons. Last year we were gifted with our first granddaughter.<br />
<br />
I've been working on Sunsflowers in a Tin Can. I also completed a christmas candle and working on candy canes.<br />
<br />
When I'm not cross stitching I enjoy writing, blogging, reading, and taking pictures which I enjoy sharing here on the blog. On the side bar is a link to my review blog of books I enjoy reading.This isn't my first blog but it's my longest lol.<br />
<br />
I started blogging to meet other people, share tid bits of my life.

He is taking game designing and programing. I can't hardly believe he is old enough to. A big part of mom wants to remember the little guy who use to run to her to kiss his hurts away. And yet we are so proud of the young man he is and is becoming.<br />
<br />
He is definitely trying to make his own way in the world. He has wanted to become a game designer since 3rd grade. He'll be living to home for quite awhile to come yet but I know there will come a time when he will spread his wings fully and moves out. When he moves out I'm going to miss him terribly. We are very close. <br />
<br />
It just goes to show that time really can fly before you know it. Time sits still for no one. Time is too short not to treasure the good days, small laughs and smiles, and just being together as a family.

<br />
I'm going to embrace life and all that comes my way whether it be good or bad or light and dark. We have each side to us and so many want to neglect one for the other but if we do that we never learn how to properly love ourselves or others.

<br />
Outside my window....it's still dark and cold cause it's after midnight.<br />
<br />
I am thinking...of the new things I want to do in 2013.<br />
<br />
I am grateful for....the world not coming to an end, lol.<br />
<br />
From the kitchen.... it's exactly like we left it earlier still needing to be picked up a bit.<br />
<br />
I am creating.... a snood, a head covering.<br />
<br />
I am reading.....The Stone Crow and Spirit Walk.<br />
<br />
I am hoping....this year will be better than 2012.<br />
<br />
I am hearing..... the dryer going and the washer.<br />
<br />
Around the house.....most of the household is sleeping, me I'm the night owl.<br />
<br />
The weather outside is.....it's 39 degrees but glad there is no snow considering it's January now.<br />
<br />
Worthy to watch.....My Three Wives, gave such a more positive point of view and look at poly marriages than my Sister Wives.<br />
<br />
Steps toward simplicity....decluttering.<br />
<br />
On my mind....taking steps to improve my health which means more exercise.<br />
<br />
I laugh.....that people still thought the world could come to an end at midnight.<br />
<br />
I love..... our fur babies Jewel and Shiloh.<br />
<br />
Something new..... I got a new journal .to write in this year.<br />
<br />
One of my favorite things....our granddaughter Allisun.<br />

<span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"><em>Happy New Years</em></span> Countrywomanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04633771245149401752noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4094409606117089374.post-37091153106394951252012-12-30T14:45:00.002-08:002012-12-30T14:45:22.316-08:00What Has ChangedThere is only today and tomorrow left of 2012. People worried that the world was ending because someone once again predicted it. I just don't understand why people are in such a hurry for the world to end as they know it. Are you so dissatisfied with your life that you want a way out without doing it by your own hand? You know what the world isn't going to end because so and so says it is. No one knows when or if that will ever happen. Quit putting your faith and life in someone else's hands.<br />
<br />
Off the soap box now climbing back down to safer ground.<br />
<br />
So as I sit and reflect today I wondered exactly what about me has changed?<br />
<br />
1. another year older<br />
2. I have lost a small amount of weight<br />
3. I've accomplished my walking goals for this year<br />
4. I've exercised more than the previous year<br />
5. no longer worrying about things I can't change, it's useless and does my health no good<br />
6. I've taken to the softer side of myself am more willing to be the woman I am<br />
7. I completed a number of reading challenges<br />
8. our 1st granddaughter was born bringing me into the age of being a grandparent which isn't about physical age at all<br />
9. letting go of past hurts, wounds<br />
10. accepting the fact that not only do I have depression but an eating disorder<br />
11. I am a submissive wife<br />
12. My view on the spiritual world has and is still changing<br />
13. I'm accepting the darker side of myself and things I like that aren't necessarily all fluff and goodness<br />
14. I let go of the dream of publishing any more stories or books simply because I'm tired of the fight and battle I am currently in to get my rights back to a story that is out. This has drained me of that passion. After a while you just get tired and fed up.<br />
15. I am finally comfortable in my own skin<br />
16. I'll never be able to please everybody and that is okay<br />
17. I would rather wear long dresses and skirts than pants<br />
18. It is not my spouse's or children's responsibility to make me happy<br />
19. I've gotten back into drawing<br />
20. I enjoy a good erotic d/s story over other kinds<br />
<br />
I'm sure as I continue to reflect on this year that I'll eventually end up adding more things to this list.<br />

It's time the past was truly the past. The past is not who I am, but it is what has brought me to this point. <br />
<br />
Cleansing, is an inner change of the soul. Time is too precious to waste and brings on it's heels the stallion of change rearing its head fighting to push forwards. <br />
<br />
I'm playing by no one's rules, but my own now. <br />
<br />
I've finally found a term I can use for blending the different philosophies of religion and belief systems I follow: Soul Crafting. <br />
<br />
I am becoming a seeker of Simple Abundance.

<br />
1. It's still quite nice in Texas for it being the middle of November<br />
2.We almost have my son completely enrolled in Devry U.<br />
3. Thanksgiving is this week and hubby is able to be with the family<br />
4. The ability to enjoy a good book<br />
5. My truck is still up and running<br />

I have never really done this before and I am hoping it will be a start of a new form of appreciation not only for myself but life in general.<br />
<br />
1. My life- the ability to awaken each day<br />
2. My husband- the man brave enough to love me<br />
3. My health- even though it needs work for the most part I am in okay shape<br />
4. My kids- I wouldn't give them up for the world<br />
5. My grandchild- more precious then tinsel, silver or gold<br />

<span style="font-family: BatangChe;">Outside the front door was two jack-o-lanterns
and in the corner was a cauldron covered in dirt and soot. Yet, no one had lived
in the manor in years so where had they come from? Something wasn’t right.
Lizzie hesitated before entering Blackwood Manor. She’d do anything if it would
land her a date with Tom the captain of the football team of Bailer High School.
Besides, there was no such thing as ghosts or witches. Right? Parents just told
their kids it was haunted to keep them off the grounds of the manor.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

took to reach the upper floor. The upstairs bedroom is where it happened. The
story went that the Thompson’s daughter Alice had sliced her wrist with razor
blades on Halloween night and has wandered the halls ever since as punishment.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: BatangChe;">The only way Alice’s soul would find peace is if
she traded places with another. Lizzie shook her head. She tried to shake the
cobwebs off her hand as she continued down the hall. She peeked into the other
rooms but all was empty not a ghost in sight. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: BatangChe;">Lizzie opened Alice’s bedroom door. She flipped
the switch, nothing. What was she expecting? It was a good thing she had bought
her flashlight. The second part of the dare was to retrieve something personal
from Alice’s room to prove she’d actually done the dirty deed. She walked over
to the dresser and pocketed the old hair brush. The moment she turned around is
when she saw…<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Alice</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: BatangChe;">Lizzie’s screams filled the room. The door
slammed shut. The flashlight went flying at Alice’s head but did nothing as it
sailed through thin air. “No, you’re not real!” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: BatangChe;">Alice prevented any means of
escape.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: BatangChe;">“No, but I soon will be.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
