I have ordered so much pretty scrapbook paper. I have been taking a lot of photos with my instant camera, and soon I'm going to either get my digital photos printed at the pharmacy, or print them out on my mini link. I wish I had a good space to scrapbook downstairs. Going upstairs is … Continue reading Scrapbooking

Busy at Home
How anyone gets bored at home is beyond me. This morning I am running laundry, picking up, and journaling with chalk pastels. Just basic abstract images, but it's therapeutic. I had to get up at 430 for ECT this morning, and they put me under anesthesia, but for some reason, when I got home, I … Continue reading Busy at Home
Obey Your Husband Like You Obey God
Your husband is not God. He is a man. He is fallible. But God commands women to obey their husbands. That is not up for debate. There have been times when I have not agreed with my husband's decisions, but I supported them anyway. And each time that has happened, blessings have come my way … Continue reading Obey Your Husband Like You Obey God

The machine makes a weird, fast beeping sound when … Continue reading ECT is Killing Me
Martyrdom
Do you have the strength of the martyrs? If faced with the choice between denying Christ or a painful death, which would you choose? I admit I'm terrified of pain, and being burned alive is my worse nightmare, followed by being eaten in the arena. But I would like to think I have the strength … Continue reading Martyrdom
Husband, ECT, Friend
My husband is home again for a few weeks. It's so good to have him back! This week, I should find out whether I have been accepted for ECT. It could go either way. My ekg was great, but my blood work wasn't. I don't know how my chest x ray went. Tomorrow is the … Continue reading Husband, ECT, Friend
Big Cat Diaries, Wolves, and Homelessness
I found Big Cat Diary on Amazon Prime and confess I bought it. I loved that show back when my husband and I met, and I watched much of it with him. It's a super big nature documentary. What's not to love? I read a fascinating book this week about wolves. I really love wolves. … Continue reading Big Cat Diaries, Wolves, and Homelessness
Half My Mother’s Face Swelled Up at Disney World
Describe your most memorable vacation. It was on the only vacation we took in my childhood. We were visiting Disney World and Sea World. One night, something bit my mother's face.
