Rid of My Disgrace (Re:Lit)

The statistics are jarring. One in four women and one in six men have been sexually assaulted. But as sobering as the statistics are, they don’t begin to speak to the darkness and grief experienced by these victims. Because sexual assault causes physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual pain, victims need clear help, hope, and healing. In Rid of My Disgrace, a couple experienced in counseling victims of sexual assault explains how the grace of God can heal the broken and restore the disgraced.


Justin and Lindsey Holcomb outline an approach for moving from destruction to redemption. While avoiding platitudes and shallow theology, Rid of My Disgrace combines biblical and theological depth with up-to-date research. This book is primarily written for those who have been assaulted (either as children or adults) but also equips family, friends, pastors, and others to care for victims in ways that are compassionate, practical, and informed. Part of the Re:Lit series.

Lucky for me, I have a lovely boyfriend. He bought an old '65 VW Bug the other day, and got a really, really good deal on it. Then it somehow turned into gonna be my car, and I got all excited and looking on websites for parts and stuff for the interior. I've always wanted a VW Bus, but a Bug is cool too. I thought how fun, it can be a little project we can do together. Like I pick out all the stuff and color, and he does the dirty work. Fun for all. HaHa!

He got it running today, but it still needs some work. The coolest thing though is that parts for it are ridiculously cheap. All the interior stuff like upholstery & carpet kits, and knobs and handles and stuff will cost only like $600. We're going to paint it...and I'm pretty sure we are going to do a lime green and white...and all white interior. I spent the last half of the day sanding, staining and spray painting the old roof rack...which I'm not sure we will put back on, because I don't like it all that much, but Jeremy of course likes it.

As I was sanding, a family walked by and the guy asks me if this was the Bug off of such and such street for sale, and I said "Yes". He then asked how much we got it for, and I told him "$750.00" and his jaw dropped and he said he had looked at it. Then I said "Yeah it was originally $2000.00, but he wanted to get rid of it." He looked all hurt, and his wife had to kinda nudge him to keep going. Then he said "Have fun with her." Ha. Ha.

I am going to be happy to drive it around when it looks all purty. Right now, it's bright orange...and really ugly inside. I can't wait to start helping him do everything we are going to do. Maybe I'll learn something.

one day, on the spur of the moment, we decided to tear up the carpet. this stuff was wrinkled, stained, and nasty, and i've been wanting to get rid of it since the day we moved in.
so we finally did.
under it we found some old linoleum that was glued to the hardwood floor underneath (why do people do such mean things to old wood floors?).
the linoleum isn't in the greatest shape, but it's far better than the carpet was. it's actually a cool design though. and until we have the money and time to tear it off and redo the wood floor, we'll be living with it.

this is as clean as it will get. moonjava and willow are already working on getting it covered in as much hair as possible.
