I had a lovely day. C forgot to bring something with him to work today, so he asked me to bring it in to him. I got to hang out in his office for a few minutes. He ended up not needing the stuff I brought him, but it was nice to get to see … Continue reading Nice Day

Little Updates
I drove by myself yesterday to go to my first appointment with my dr here. It went well, despite the fact it was pouring, and that made me an even bigger nervous wreck. The new medicine this Dr. put me on made me nauseous for a while, but other than that, it was a lovely … Continue reading Little Updates
Soaking in Femininity
Moving across the world is stressful. Missing my daughter, if only until August, is stressful. So is not having a car and so many other things right now. The stress has gotten to me. My husband does his best to keep stress off me, but it's impossible to move across the world and not feel … Continue reading Soaking in Femininity
Books Galore
Our kitchen stuff has arrived! We'll unpack this weekend. Happy 4th! Molly is settling in well. We hope to see the fireworks from our house. We'll see if that's possible. Yesterday I spent more than an hour on Kindle choosing book samples to download. I must have downloaded at least 30! Some samples I have … Continue reading Books Galore
New House, New Family Member
Yesterday we moved into our new house! But better yet last night we officially adopted a new friend. Her name is Molly. Right now she's hiding back by the garage door she came in through. I think she really misses her rescuer's home. But her rescuer had something like 11 dogs in her care. Molly … Continue reading New House, New Family Member

Day 1 of Empty Nest Summer
I'm super tired today, but I've made something of my time. I've done the dishes. Last night we bought another crock pot, and I cooked my husband's lunch for the week. I've journaled in my Bible as well and chatted with A via text. The laundry is done. Best of all, I've started reading 3 … Continue reading Day 1 of Empty Nest Summer
Summer is here
A just landed back home with her grandparents. C and I are having a lovely day just us again (A traveled all day Saturday too). We went to a lovely shop that sells coffee and analog photography supplies. C got excellent coffee. I got an adorable new 35 mm camera with a bunny character on … Continue reading Summer is here
Looking Ahead
I'm looking ahead to a lonely summer. My inlaws arrived yesterday. After they spend a few days here, they're flying A back to Georgia with them. Honestly, my baby flying without me scares me. I will struggle to sleep for the 24 hours or so that she will be traveling. But after that initial, terrifying … Continue reading Looking Ahead
Should I Start a Substack?
I'm debating starting a substack, possibly more than one. The platform seems fascinating. I just signed up for an account so I can subscribe to other creators, but I think I want to do one too. I have a few topic ideas. 1. Poetry 2. Art and Photography 3. Homemaking and marriage 4. Faith 5. … Continue reading Should I Start a Substack?
