This week was a good one! On Tuesday I went to city council with my NAMI Greater Corpus Christi cohorts to accept a proclamation about suicide prevention. It went well and immediately after the program director told me she had nominated me for an award given by NAMI Texas, and I won!

I was surprised but so happy. Sometimes it's hard to keep up with the blog and my columns, but something like this makes me realize that it's worth it and that I'm helping people. At least I hope I am.

The Caller-Times last week told me I could continue my column into the new year, so I'm about to get busy writing columns again. I like to have a nice, fat stockpile, lol.

Everything else is going well. My family is doing well, and I feel so blessed.

I hope y'all have a great week!
