You Are Not Alone Support Letter

For those of you that have not discovered this amazing resource yet, I want to tell you a little about it.

Andrea Roe is a pretty amazing woman. She FOUGHT her eating disorder and WON! How encouraging is that? That someone can fight "ED" and win?! Even if you personally don't struggle with an eating disorder, I think its pretty awesome to see someone overcome anything.

For those of you that do struggle with ED, she puts together a awesome support letter every month. It is filled with "personal recovery stories, inspirational sayings, special guest interviews with eating disorder experts, speakers and survivors, useful recovery and body image tips, inspiring poems and artwork, healing information, give-aways, and more."

I've personally found it to be a great source of support and encouragement. And it's FREE!!

Here is a link to this months support letter (Recovery Buddies is featured in it!), go check it out!

RUN! HIDE! BE AFRAID!

That's right.

I'm baaacckkk!!!

Bethany is HOME!!!! :)

Aren't you excited? It's about time I'm home. I've been away 10 months. Did anyone miss me?

So I'm REALLY excited to get things up and going again. YAY! Sorry for the hiatus. But it was necessary. Things might be a little slower than I'd like still though, because as I'm sure you all know, Allison is in treatment. And Allie is a busy college student.

Allison is currently at Well of GRACE Ministries, I just graduated that program and let me tell you she is gonna do great. She and I got to spend some awesome time together there and it was really hard to leave her behind, but I know she is gonna do great. Keep her in your thoughts, and I'm SURE she'd love mail ;).

Allie is a busy college student again. She is still knitting when she can find time. But that is hard for her to do, I know.

But I'm HOME!! Hopefully I'll get things picking up again soon.

As of right now, as you may have noticed, the donation button is down. I'm working on getting a few things rearranged and I'll have it back soon hopefully. Part of why things have been so slow is lack of funds :(.

Also, I need knitters!! Anyone here knit? know anyone that does? Think you'd like to be a part of this? Email me! We would love for you to help.

I've got some fun things up my sleeves that I'll be posting soon I am sure. :). Keep watching the blog!

I think that is all I have for right now. I just wanted to let you all know that I'm BACK!! YAY!

Love you all,
Bethany
