Alicen McCaffrey finally has the life her mother always dreamed for her: beautiful home in Santa Monica, successful husband, adorable daughter. Then tragedy blows her carefully assembled façade to pieces. Worse yet―Alicen feels solely responsible. At rock bottom, she decides to accompany a childhood friend back to Red Lodge, Montana, where they spent summers together as kids.
The peaceful mountain landscape, accented with lush forests and small-town charm, brings back happy memories of time spent with her beloved, eccentric Grandma Josephine. Alicen begins to hope that perhaps things could be different here. Perhaps the oppressive guilt will lift―if only for a moment.
But when Alicen starts hearing voices and seeing mysterious figures near the river in the woods, she begins to fear she’s completely lost her sanity, as it’s rumored her grandmother did. Or might there be more to Red Lodge than meets the eye? Could the voices and visions be real―and her only means of finding the healing she so desperately needs? Or will they prove to be her final undoing?
I hope you have a wonderful week. The weather has certainly turned cooler here. We are having highs around sixty degrees with rain most days this week.
Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Such an adorable chart for October! Good to hear the neck and shoulder are improving.
Cute, cute, cute!!! Love your newest poodle pattern Vickie. RJ
Lovely poodle, Vickie and thanks for the book review. Maybe the spelling of the heroine's name "Alicen" was a giveaway that the author was trying too hard?????
Hi Vickie: What a sweet design, you have a knack to design.
I am so happy you are able to stitch again, I hope your neck continues to get better.

The new little poodle chart is so cute! Very glad you can stitch again!
Hi Vickie,
Once again a sweet poodle has managed to look like a squirrel. You really have talent.
I'm glad that you can get back to the needle a bit, looking forward to a picture of your work.
Big Hugs, Martina
Hi Vickie,
So glad to read that your neck is feeling better, less pain. That asks for a happy dance ...
Lovely stitches!!!
Have a great week, love Carolien
A sweet addition to your monthly poodles! And oh look, a squirrel - I love squirrels! I'm so glad you are experiencing a little improvement in your pain, Vickie! Enjoy stitching. : )
In Oregon that would be a poodle, squirrel and a pear tree!
Love the October poodle, Vickie! Thank you for sharing your talent with us! I agree with you on the Rachelle Dekker book - it was good but not great like her Dad's books. I hope you continue to improve and your pain lessens.
Blessings - Julie
Oh, Vickie! That is such a cute stitch. If it weren’t for the squirrels in our backyard, I don’t know what Scout would do for entertainment. When he barks at them, we make him come inside, so I have noticed lately that he has learned to chase them without barking at them! (Sometimes.) I’m so glad your PT gave you the go-ahead to stitch again!
Another adorable fluffy friend in cross stitch to add to your cubby.
Great news you are able to stitch again.
So glad to hear you are able to put needle to fabric again, Vickie. Can't imagine what I would do without my stitching! Your little October pup and squirrel design is so cute--well done :)
The October poodle is so sweet!
So glad that you are stitching more!
Another cute month, it looks like the squirrel is teasing the poor pup!
