I have started using my digital planner again. It's a homeschooling planner because when I bought it I thought we"d be homeschooling. Next year I might get a faith planner instead. Or I might keep this one for 2025 and use some of the homeschooling stuff for my self directed "MFA." The books I've read … Continue reading Planner Pages

Weird
I've got laundry running. I made cookies. I mopped. I took out the recycling. Homemaking is in full swing here. I plan to scrub my bathtub, sweep, do a general pickup, and dust next. Then, I plan to read and write. Homemaking is my job and my love, but writing poetry is my passion. Followed … Continue reading Weird
Photos
I took these photos the other day. This is my world. I am not happy today. It's a hard day. I have the shower curtain in the washing machine. I made lunch but got too depressed to finish it, which is probably good. I have a bunch of housework I need to do, and very … Continue reading Photos
Beautiful Day
Today is a gorgeous day. Warm air and sunny skies are lifting my spirit. I had a medical test this morning, and afterward I stayed up instead of curling up in bed. I've been cleaning the house, studying Arabic, and listening to linguistics lectures. I am hoping this means I am on an upswing and … Continue reading Beautiful Day
It’s a Beautiful Life
Today I am taking some time to get out my new gel pen set and journal. I decided that what this blog needs is more pretty pictures...and raw, honest pictures too. But life at home is beautiful, and I want to savor every moment.

So here's a partial list of things I have to do tomorrow. Organize the master bedroom Mop … Continue reading Busy Day Planned
On the Mend
I was physically and mentally not feeling well last week. Then my inlaws arrived last Thursday. So between physical illness, Bipolar, and my inlaws coming to visit, I have been too wrapped up to write here. It has been a very hard week. This weekend I am doing better physically. I went to church and … Continue reading On the Mend
Lovely Day
Today we went into the city to go to an art museum dedicated to what is traditionally seen as craft or woman's work. It was fascinating! There were some really deep, beautiful things there, and I got some nice photos. We went out to lunch after the museum, then went back to town and grabbed … Continue reading Lovely Day
Wonderful Weekend
The girls weekend with L was wonderful! We had a horror movie marathon! We also ate at a couple of good restaurants and went to a carousel. We had hoped to do the pool, but found out that this particular hotel didn't have one. Oh well. We had an amazing time nonetheless! Now I'm back … Continue reading Wonderful Weekend
Public Again
A few days ago, I made my blog private. I've since changed it back. I have this internal battle because, on one hand, I love blogging about my life, but on the other hand, I'm a private person I just felt unsafe and exposed, so I made the page private. But I'm feeling better now. … Continue reading Public Again
