Joy, Nonfiction

Just wanted to say hi. I feel so much joy. I've been praying more, and the Holy Spirit has been speaking to me. I have also been reading a book about creative nonfiction called "Bending Genre." I love it. This book is opening me up to so many possibilities. Docupoetics is one I'm interested in. … Continue reading Joy, Nonfiction

My Planner!

I am back to using a planner again. I'm using one that was custom designed for me several years ago by an Etsy shop owner who has since closed. It isn't completely perfect for me now. Because I could use more space in the homeschooling columns for next year, and I want the cleaning section … Continue reading My Planner!

I love collage art, and I watch a lot of collage content on Youtube. A couple of things catch my eye. One is that every popular collage artist I come across or collage artists on lists of accomplished artists has in common is doing paper collage. I am the only one I know doing digital … Continue reading Collage Art in Color

Dr Appointments, Diet, Mania

I went to the GI doctor today. He thinks, based on imaging that was done on me when I was in the hospital, that there might be something wrong with my liver. I have to get an MRI soon.

I still have some nausea and vomiting, plus I have come down with a respiratory cold. Needless to say, I am not at my best. But while my body is tired, my mind is very much awake. I dropped my daughter off at school, and I put together a huge grocery order for pickup. I … Continue reading Sick

Cooking, Sewing, Art Journaling

I have made several new dishes over the past few weeks, and all of them have been a success with the family. I am so grateful they like my food. As I've written before, my husband loves to cook, and historically in our marriage he did the cooking. Now though, time has gone by, and … Continue reading Cooking, Sewing, Art Journaling

A Little Organization/Update

My husband left for a conference in Europe yesterday morning. My father in law is kindly staying with my daughter and I. We went out to the art store, and I bought this rolling cart. My FIL assembled it for me. Tools and building things just aren't in my feminine repertoire. The purpose is to … Continue reading A Little Organization/Update
