Lucky - with a challenge!!!

     I don't consider myself a "lucky" person...I have had my fair share of things I have been through in life.  I lost an ex-husband to suicide and my father to Alzheimer's disease both on 8/5 - which was 3 days after my birthday - 5 years apart.  I was involved in a tornado 6 days after the ex died - in Salt Lake City, Utah - where tornado's don't hit. I was molested by 3 different people - I had an ex-wife from HELL get involved in my life and try to ruin and devastate not only me but my husband and my marriage.  However, I am one lucky woman when I met my husband Del, let me tell you!  
     Del came in my life when I needed someone the most - and I came in his about the same time!  We both had kids from previous relationships and marriages that we tried to blend (thus the ex-wife from hell comment) but he was something I just could not get enough of - especially how wonderful of a father he is!  He has a loving yet jackass attitude, you know you are loved by him - or you know you are hated...take your pick.  You don't want to get on his bad side...but man, the good side is just awesome!  With this layout, I didn't have any type of "embellishments" to go with this type of theme and title so I created my own with stamps and green for the embellishments!
     Okay, now for the challenge...  I want you to find one word that describes you - or someone you know - and do a layout that describes something about them or how you feel about them, or whatever you want...it just needs to be one word, a photo and journalling!  Make sure you let me know your take on this!

  1. Lynda,
    What an incredible history you have. I've never been moved to take on a challenge before but I totally understood the comments about your husband ...mine is the same way. However I think I've been inspired to try to participate ..in any even God bless you and your marriage.
    Abiding in Him,
    Tiff
