Are you seeking security or adventure? Adventure is wonderful. Growing up I thought I would live boldly. Honestly though, as a grown woman, I crave security. I want physical security. Knowing that I'm safe feels good. I crave economic security as well. And I crave security in the form of stability. As a child I … Continue reading Security

Update
I am feeling somewhat better. I have gotten some things done. And I'm feeling creative. Taking a nap helps sometimes.
Weekend, Collage, Adobe
Other than ending up at the dentist, the past 3 days have been relaxing. We wanted to go to the fireworks in the city on Independence Day, but it rained. That was disappointing. But we have spent a ton of time together as a family. Tomorrow my husband is taking us on a surprise site … Continue reading Weekend, Collage, Adobe
War, Collapse, Persecution
What are you most worried about for the future? I'm worried about war with China. I don't want my husband to die in the fight or my daughter to get drafted (if they get so desperate they draft girls) and die. It's frightening. I try to look ahead with a smile and laugh at the … Continue reading War, Collapse, Persecution

I ordered more today for my … Continue reading Battlefield, Film, Books
Writing Soon
I don't feel like myself today. I felt good for a while in terms of physical energy, but mentally, I feel tired and fractured. I have a lot to do and until about 45 minutes ago I was getting a lot done. Now I'm going to sleep for a little bit.
Problem with women
I saw a video in which a former trad wife said it's dangerous to be a traditional wife because if you get tired of your husband, you are stuck. If you get "tired" of someone you are supposed to love, the problem is you. I hate it when people argue against traditional marriage and biblical … Continue reading Problem with women
Wedding!

All in all, we had a great time However, I embarrassed myself during the reception. I hurt my arm muscle/shoulder joint, and I yelled out … Continue reading Wedding!
