We have changed our minds about homeschooling next year. Long story, but we decided that homeschooling would not be best for A for now. So now we are between two different schools to send her to. One is a clear first choice, but we haven't interviewed with them yet. The other school is also very … Continue reading Changed Our Minds

Productive Day
I've been feeling more energetic the past couple of days. I've been creating. I have been getting housework done. I made a big lasagna the other day, so we are eating leftovers tonight. I took A to the fabric store to get thread for her sewing machine. She has her first sewing lesson tomorrow. I … Continue reading Productive Day
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. I hope to have our daughter and our dogs back next weekend. Moving is so stressful. Last night Craig and I went to … Continue reading Mothers Day
Dr Appointments, Diet, Mania
I went to the GI doctor today. He thinks, based on imaging that was done on me when I was in the hospital, that there might be something wrong with my liver. I have to get an MRI soon. Hopefully it's nothing. I also have other problems they found, but I likely won't have surgery … Continue reading Dr Appointments, Diet, Mania
Lovely Day!
This morning, my husband took our daughter to swimming and let me sleep in. Then we went to the local library and got library cards! I didn't have anything in particular in mind when I walked in, but I walked out with 8 books! From embroidery to biography to sociology, the books span many subjects. … Continue reading Lovely Day!

Big Cat Diaries, Wolves, and Homelessness

What's not to love? I read a fascinating book this week about wolves. I really love wolves. … Continue reading Big Cat Diaries, Wolves, and Homelessness
Books, Studying, Panama
I have so many new books. I have one in depth book about the octopus. I have another with gorgeous up close photographs of plankton. Additionally, I have a book coming in the Victorian language of flowers. I would consider myself a Victorian housewife more than a 50s housewife, and I am always interested in … Continue reading Books, Studying, Panama
Kierkegaard, Queens, Painting
I spent some time listening to lectures today. I listened to an introduction to Kierkegaard that I found interesting. His notion that ethics and religion do not go hand in hand, but are opposed to each other is a captivating idea. I also completed a documentary series on the early queens of England. This morning … Continue reading Kierkegaard, Queens, Painting
Digital Art Journaling
Using gradients, public domain photos, my photos, textures, light leaks, texts, cut outs, and digital scrapbooking paper, I have spent the afternoon art journaling on my phone. It feels so good! It's very enriching and cathartic. Welcome to my creative space, where I strive to reap the therapeutic benefits of art. Making these art journal … Continue reading Digital Art Journaling
