I haven't been working much on my blog or reading yours much the past several months but that doesn't mean I've forgotten you. It just means that I've been pulled in a different direction. I want to fill this next period of my life with acts of sharing more of myself with others. Trying to figure that out these days.

| That's me today, December 21st, 2012. I'm taking a break from working on my book project "This Restless Life" which is basically a condensing of my blogs from the last three years. |
Just in case you're interested, here's the update I sent yesterday to backers of my book project.
Nearly three weeks have passed since "This Restless Life" book project was successfully funded. The goal is to have the book completed and the rewards out to all of you within the next eleven weeks.
Over the past two weeks, I ordered rewards - greeting cards and post cards made from images that will be in the book. I selected all of the stories from my "A Camp Host's Meanderings" blog that I will build upon in the book. I created more collages that will be pictured in the book.
During the same period, I nursed a cold and dealt with my dog Gingee's flea allergies. In five days, Santa will visit little children around the world. For weeks, months and years to come citizens and policy makers will be wading through matters associated with gun violence in our country. Others will grieve losses from the recent Connecticut shootings along with all the other shootings and killings from years past.
I have been and will continue to seek inspiration from the following quote as I move forward with this project and in my life. "You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give." Kahlil Gibran
Thank you each and everyone for the support you have given to me as I do my best to give of myself to others. Wishing you Peace, Safety and Love this holiday season, Levonne

Good luck with the book - I'm sure it'll be really fascinating. I've fallen way behind on blog reading too as I've been pulled away from the computer a lot lately too. I guess we all go through this, after all, there is still life out there ;-)
