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
Busy Day Planned
Tomorrow is the first day back to the grind after having my family home for a four day weekend. I've been really unwell the past couple of weeks, and there is much I need to catch up on. 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
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

Today I used our old bread machine to make my first loaf of bread. I made parmesan garlic bread. It didn't turn out perfectly. I took out the mixing piece too soon. But my husband has still enjoyed a piece. Tomorrow I might try again. I got several chores done today, but not as many … Continue reading My First Loaf of Bread

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
