Today was my first day volunteering at the animal shelter! I loved it! I played with two dogs, one of whom was named Whimsy and loved to chase the ball. I played with kittens! I returned home early, however, because it poured on me, and I got drenched and uncomfortable. My raincoat is with the … Continue reading 1st Day

Little Updates
I drove by myself yesterday to go to my first appointment with my dr here. It went well, despite the fact it was pouring, and that made me an even bigger nervous wreck. The new medicine this Dr. put me on made me nauseous for a while, but other than that, it was a lovely … Continue reading Little Updates
Soaking in Femininity
Moving across the world is stressful. Missing my daughter, if only until August, is stressful. So is not having a car and so many other things right now. The stress has gotten to me. My husband does his best to keep stress off me, but it's impossible to move across the world and not feel … Continue reading Soaking in Femininity

I Belong to My Husband
Can I just say that a traditional marriage is immensely sexy and fulfilling? There is something so powerful about a man who takes charge. Submission is spoken about by feminists and egalitarians like it's slavery. It's treated like a dirty word. But both men and women are more likely to be happy and satisfied in … Continue reading I Belong to My Husband
Laundry Day
I have so much laundry to do today! For a while, the washing machine quit working after the power flickered, which slowed me down. But I'm determined to get another load done, maybe two, before my husband gets home. Everything is wet and gray. I can't wait to move. I am so ready to be … Continue reading Laundry Day
Sex is a Responsibility for a Married Woman

It's like nothing else on Earth because it reflects the relationship of Christ and the … Continue reading Sex is a Responsibility for a Married Woman
