Quick thought. When I told my husband how safe I feel when he pushes me in my wheelchair, he said it makes sense because I submit. You have to submit when someone else is pushing your wheelchair. Following my husband's lead and listening to him has in many ways become second nature to me. I … Continue reading Submission and the wheelchair

Vacation
Our vacation has been wonderful. Yesterday we went to the Salvador Dali museum. Seeing his art again was incredible (MY husband and I visited before on a romantic trip years ago), and I got new books I'm excited about. One is biographies of surrealists, one is about Leonora Carrington....and one is letters between Lorca and … Continue reading Vacation
Comfy
My wheelchair with the seat cushion my husband bought for it is comfortable. Very. We've been at Busch Gardens since they opened this morning. My wonderful husband wheels me around to shady places to relax in while he and A ride the rides. She went on her first rollercoaster today! I'm so proud of her. … Continue reading Comfy
What I am now
When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up? When I was 5 years old, my dream was to go to college. Harvard was my pick, but that was mainly because I couldn't think of any other colleges. I wanted to get married the day after I graduated, and then … Continue reading What I am now
Moving, Angel, Vacation
This week I found out we will be moving sooner than I expected. I will really miss this house by the ocean, our cute neighborhood, and my friend C. Moving is never easy. It's especially hard on children. I know my daughter will miss all her friends here. Yesterday there was an awards ceremony at … Continue reading Moving, Angel, Vacation
Dreary, Colorsplash, Homeschooling
Today has been dark and dreary. The weather brought my mood down a lot. I can enjoy an afternoon downpour laced with lightning, but a day so dark from the start that you don't know the sun has risen until well after dawn is another thing. Days like this suck. I adore the Pacific Northwest, … Continue reading Dreary, Colorsplash, Homeschooling
My Wheelchair Is Here!
My wheelchair and some of the accessories have arrived. We are going on vacation soon, and the wheelchair will allow me to enjoy theme parks, the aquarium, big museums, and more. If you are wondering why I need a wheelchair, it is because I needed surgery on my right ankle several years ago, and the … Continue reading My Wheelchair Is Here!
Submission is Beautiful
So many people are against submission because feminism and rebelling against the Bible are so popular. Many women who find my Instagram assume I am dumb and abused. When I first married my husband, submission was not a part of my life. My husband even told me he wanted to leave "obey" out of our … Continue reading Submission is Beautiful
Why Should She Die for Not Being Popular?
Caitlin, age two, is in my front yard surrounding Agatha. Agatha is a beautiful ornamental grass in front of my pink beach house that the lawn crew put there to make my yard lovely. Caitlin, for her part, isn't a bad girl. Not to me, but she is misunderstood. Caitin is a weed. As a … Continue reading Why Should She Die for Not Being Popular?
Glass, Competition, Earth
What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times? "Blown Away," the glass blowing competition on Netflix, is a favorite of mine. My husband and I have already watched the new season. I have also watched competition shows several times, especially "Alone." I love wilderness and survival shows, so "Alone," a competition … Continue reading Glass, Competition, Earth
