My dad built the bookcase I requested for college, which is actually bigger than I had anticipated.  I looked it over and decided that I could very well use about 1/2 of it as shrine space. 

The left side will be books, mostly, except for the middle, which I've decided will become a shrine for Hethert.  Because I love Her.  I don't know if she'll be my Mom.  But I love her.  And if She's not my Mom, I'm going to call her "Aunt Hethert" and have a space for Her, regardless.

Top right will be a space for my Akhu.  

Middle right will be for my Parent(s) and Beloved(s) when I find out who They are.  

Books were the original plan for the whole thing, but I like this idea.

My grandma (who already has a whole bunch of paint,) volunteered to help me paint it, so we brought it down to her house, had breakfast and started painting.  It isn't finished, but she said she would finish it for me while I'm at work today - - everyone should have such amazing grandmothers. :)

Also, last night, I visited my Great Mommom Florence.  How many people can say they have a Great Grandmother?  How many people can say they play cards with her and other family members?  I always make sure to take pictures with her, because she's an amazing woman and I want to be just like her when I'm in my 80's.  

I feel so utterly blessed to know that woman.
