Bad Medicine, OCIA, Bible Journaling

Waking up was difficult to do this morning. Again, the medicine knocked me out. I'm not taking it tonight. OCIA was canceled today. Father C offered to teach it since I drove out for it, and one of my classmates was there already, but we all agreed it would be best to just reconvene in … Continue reading Bad Medicine, OCIA, Bible Journaling

Microscope, Quirks, Hypomania

My microscope arrived and C set it up for me! It is such a sweet gift. It comes with sample slides and a digital camera function. I adore it.

Long Week

Tomorrow I'm going to Mass. Afterward, I meet with the priest to discuss RCIA. I'm definitely excited. Today we went gift shopping for A's birthday, and then C grilled burgers.

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

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

Laundry Day

I have so much laundry to do today! For a while, the washing machine quit working after the power flickered, which slowed me down. But I'm determined to get another load done, maybe two, before my husband gets home. Everything is wet and gray. I can't wait to move. I am so ready to be … Continue reading Laundry Day

Enjoying New England

We're up in New England. I'm from up here, and it's nice to come back where I came from. The water, the history, the rocky granite landscape that formed me down to my bones - it's nice to be back at the source even if I prefer Colorado or Florida. We got here last Sunday, … Continue reading Enjoying New England
