From my home to yours, Merry Christmas. We exchanged gifts this morning, and my husband made manicotti for a Christmas meal. Delicious. My present is a gorgeous opal necklace. One of Angelica's presents is a remote control vehicle that can go up walls and on the ceiling. She loves it. She also got Tuttle Twins … Continue reading Merry Christmas!

The Evil of the Trans Movement
Yesterday I had some time on my hands, and I read Matt Walsh's new book, "What is a Woman." I always knew the trans movement was sick. It denies the reality of the body and allows men to intrude in women only spaces. What I didn't know is that the two men who started it, … Continue reading The Evil of the Trans Movement
Tropical Storm
Tropical storm Nicole is getting close. The sky is gray and the waves are crazy. I can see them turning white from my back porch. School might be canceled tomorrow. I hope it is. I don't want to drive in a tropical storm. This isn't a hurricane like Ian (at least it won't be when … Continue reading Tropical Storm
Why I Tell My Daughter About Hell
A lot of people won't talk to children, especially young children, about hell and the very real possibility of going there. I, on the other hand, have always made it a point to talk about hell as much as I do Heaven. I want my daughter to know there are very real consequences to not … Continue reading Why I Tell My Daughter About Hell
Succulents, MWR Digital Library
Today I took Angelica on a mommy daughter trip to Home Depot to choose succulents. She chose two cacti. I chose 3 mini succulents to go in one pot. Craig leaves again soon and will be gone for almost 2 whole weeks, with one brief trip home in the middle. My father-in-law is coming to … Continue reading Succulents, MWR Digital Library
Christian Creativity
God is THE Creator. Creator with a capital C. And if you're a Christian, you're supposed to strive to be like Him as much as you can. Yet while the most Christians are good with ideas like charity and self sacrifice, few embrace the idea of creativity. Being like God when it is drudgery is … Continue reading Christian Creativity
Long Days Alone
Angelica has started school, so I am settling in to long days at home alone. There's plenty to do, but time to rest too. Being at home when your kids go to school is a nice break. I miss homeschooling and having her with me all day, but this is a lot less stress. Yesterday … Continue reading Long Days Alone
Riding the Rollercoaster
If I could show you my mood graph, you would see few jagged peaks interspersed with long valleys lately. Functioning has been difficult. However, over the weekend having my husband here has been a balm to my soul. We've gotten important shopping done, watched the new Jurassic World, and worked on the house. He went … Continue reading Riding the Rollercoaster
Now We Both Have Covid
I was sick all last week with Covid. I am feeling a lot better, but I still have a cough and feel achey and tired. Craig has it too now unfortunately. We slept apart all week so he wouldn't get sick, but to no avail. Now he might have to work from home this week, … Continue reading Now We Both Have Covid
We Need to Put More Time into Our Friendships
We (as in women) need to put more energy into keeping up with our friends. Loneliness and depression are rampant among women, but yet many women will admit that they never text their friends. There's a challenge going around to stop texting your friends 1st and see who the dead plants are. And some women … Continue reading We Need to Put More Time into Our Friendships
