It has been a crazy week. There is so much to unpack and put away. I am physically exhausted from all the carrying stuff around and going up and down the stairs all the time. The bad ankle is not loving me right now. This morning, I hired a professional decorator/organizer to help me. My … Continue reading Moving is Exhausting

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!
Housework Inspiration
Today is my first day back to regular life. I have been cleaning, caring for the dogs, and doing laundry. Soon I have to take the car to the dealership because of an oil leak. I'm hoping the repair won't be expensive I would like to paint, read, and write, but the house must get … Continue reading Housework Inspiration
Submission and the wheelchair
Quick thought. When I told my husband how safe I feel when he pushes me in my wheelchair, he said it makes sense because I submit. You have to submit when someone else is pushing your wheelchair. Following my husband's lead and listening to him has in many ways become second nature to me. I … Continue reading Submission and the wheelchair

My head is clogged. I want to write about cleaning and productivity today, but honestly, I'm in bed. … Continue reading Sick Today
Trying to Get on My Feet
I spent too much time laying down this morning. Mentally I am not great. But I have since gotten back up. I've been cleaning baseboards. To do it, I've been using my orange duster. Honestly the constant bending makes me sore. I want a longer duster that I can stay up right with when I … Continue reading Trying to Get on My Feet
Cleaning Schedule
I am thinking of creating a more solid cleaning schedule. As it stands, I just do things as I can when they need to be done - like picking up before my husband gets home, cooking dinner, or mopping floors. But a schedule might help me keep the house extra clean and inspire me to … Continue reading Cleaning Schedule
Christmas Break
I have loved having my daughter home from school most of this week, and I'm loving my husband's four day weekend right now. I have done almost all my Christmas shopping I don't think I have mentioned this before, but I recently started a trad wife tumblr. I don't write about my daily life there … Continue reading Christmas Break
