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

My Planner!
I am back to using a planner again. I'm using one that was custom designed for me several years ago by an Etsy shop owner who has since closed. It isn't completely perfect for me now. Because I could use more space in the homeschooling columns for next year, and I want the cleaning section … Continue reading My Planner!
Radical, Sweet Softness
I have decided to embrace a radical softness. I want to be serene, gentle, and sweet. No more harboring anger or getting stressed out or being impatient. Obviously I don't mean the feminist form of radical softness. I don't believe in toxic masculinity for starters, and furthermore, this is all about femininity. I want to … Continue reading Radical, Sweet Softness
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
Public Vs Private
Today on Instagram I wrote about how masculine the public sphere is. From work to politics, public life is filled with conflict. Fighting through that conflict is masculine. I prefer the gentle, serene, and feminine. I have a fiery personality sometimes, but I like to stay at home and be at peace. I'm not saying … Continue reading Public Vs Private
Change Over The Years
It's weird to think about, but when my husband and I first married we were egalitarian. I submitted to no one. My husband and I were equal in all decisions. I cleaned, but I didn't do any cooking. I was immodest. I was obsessed with college and longed to go to grad school like I … Continue reading Change Over The Years
Veiling
Wearing veils every day has really been a phenomenal reminder to submit to my husband, read scripture more, and pray. I have several beautiful veils, and I plan to get more. Even though headcovering in Christianity has nothing to do with modesty (which is why I don't hide all my hair), it still helps me … Continue reading Veiling
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
Housewives Should Be Beautiful
If you are a woman, in particular a stay at home wife or girlfriend, you should be as beautiful as you can. Every girl has different assets to work with. Put your best foot forward. Even on a day you are staying home and cleaning all day, you should look feminine and well put together. … Continue reading Housewives Should Be Beautiful
Husbands Are Commanded to Love Their Wives
A husband should love his wife like Christ loved the Church and be willing to lay his life down for her. But love isn't just who you die for. It's who you live for. Men with unhappy wives should ask themselves whether the decisions they make benefit the whole family, or only him. Do you … Continue reading Husbands Are Commanded to Love Their Wives
