A Lovely Day
This morning I slept in a little bit. I got up a little after 8. My daughter's sewing teacher came over. While she was doing sewing I was talking to someone from the school district about home school resources and activities. I got some good information. Homeschooling is feeling more real. I've homeschooled for a … Continue reading A Lovely Day
Battlefield, Film, Books
Today my husband took our family to a historic battlefield. I got photos on both of the film cameras I brought. I can't wait to see how the color flash comes out in one and the special effects of psychedelic blues film in the other. Film makes me happy. I ordered more today for my … Continue reading Battlefield, Film, Books
Settling In
I can almost run my vacuum! The upstairs is mostly off the floor. We have unpacked so much, and this past weekend we had help. It was wonderful! Today I have a ton of laundry to do. The machines I have at this house play a cute little tune when the load is done. That … Continue reading Settling In
Mothers Day
It feels so strange to not have my baby with me on Mother's Day, but we are not finished with the house. Today my husband will be installing fencing for the yard.

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
New House
Yesterday my husband and I arrived at our new home. Moving was a fiasco. They were supposed to pick our stuff up on Friday. But first, the company didn't do the paperwork they needed to do. So we had to sponsor them on base. But then, when they were trying to get on, they crashed … Continue reading New House
Sick Day
I have been throwing up a lot since I woke up today. I feel sweaty and weak and tired. At this point I'm just hoping I can keep my medicine down tonight. Yesterday we went to a restaurant we won't have around any more when we move. We grabbed ice cream too. This coming week … Continue reading Sick Day
New Digital Planner!
I have been searching for a useful all-in-one planner system that will account for all my homeschooling needs next year, as well as let me track household goals and creative goals. I wanted something colorful and bright. I ended up on Etsy, where I saw digital planners compatible with the Android app, Penly. They had … Continue reading New Digital Planner!
