Your husband is not God. He is a man. He is fallible. But God commands women to obey their husbands. That is not up for debate. There have been times when I have not agreed with my husband's decisions, but I supported them anyway. And each time that has happened, blessings have come my way … Continue reading Obey Your Husband Like You Obey God

My Job as Family Historian
All the ECT I have been doing is causing memory loss. This is causing me to have a greater appreciation for memory keeping. Recently, I have gotten back into scrapbooking. I went supply shopping with my friend C on Thursday and with my daughter on Saturday. I'm the wife and mother of the house. Recording … Continue reading My Job as Family Historian
Husband, ECT, Friend
My husband is home again for a few weeks. It's so good to have him back! This week, I should find out whether I have been accepted for ECT. It could go either way.

My Litany of Mostly Crappy Jobs
What jobs have you had? I started babysitting for people other than my parents when I was 11. I put out a flyer on our neighborhood mail boxes advertising myself at $3 an hour.

In Praise of my Husband

Women should not be drafted (something Congress recently considered) and so they should not have the right to vote. When you vote, you vote for or against wars. People who don't fight shouldn't get … Continue reading Bring Back Patriarchy
Mother’s Day Was Wonderful

I am supposed to write my answers in the book and then give it to her so she can learn about … Continue reading Mother’s Day Was Wonderful
Sometimes I Fail
Some days are just hard. Bipolar Disorder takes no vacations. It's full time 365 days a year. Today I have not showered, let alone cleaned the house. I took Angelica to and from school and took care of the dogs. That was about all I could do. I want to be honest about that because … Continue reading Sometimes I Fail
Fantastic Days With Friends

Beautiful New Nook!
One year ago my husband ordered me a dining nook from a wonderful Amish company that makes everything by hand. Last night it arrived, and I could not be more thrilled. At restaurants I always prefer booths. Now I have one in my house. It's so comfy. It's very homey too. I am so grateful … Continue reading Beautiful New Nook!
