Okay, This Time It’s For Good

I deleted my writing/personal Instagram and my art Instagrams. I feel free! I am still on social media to network dogs in high kill shelters with fosters or adopters. But no more selfies (which always made me feel self absorbed). No more. No more getting dopamine hits from likes. I downloaded samples of 39 books … Continue reading Okay, This Time It’s For Good

New Notebooks for Learning

I was on amazon late one night when I shouldn't have been, and I absolutely loved these composition books I saw with rainbow pages inside. They came 6 to a pack. So I gave one to my daughter, and the others I'm going to use to take notes in my personal curriculum. On top of … Continue reading New Notebooks for Learning

New Color Project?

I'm excited. I've been planning a new project about color that I'm going to post on one of my other blogs. It currently houses some paintings and photos. I don't think I'll take those down, but I want to write short and spiritual nonfiction or prose poetry (and free verse) about each color, and in … Continue reading New Color Project?

I've decided I want to study Spanish so that I can communicate in Spanish to L and to A. A has been taking Spanish lessons online. I'll probably use the … Continue reading Personal Curriculum Plans

I want to continue my unit on horror, delving into short stories and maybe even a novel or two. For the past several months, I have been devouring books on the art of … Continue reading Next Semester

New Planner System

I bought a rainbow themed digital planner I'm excited about. I really want to start using all the digital stickers I have. I was torn between using a planner on my ipad and using my paper planner in the binder, and then I decided on using my phone. It's a big phone with a stylus … Continue reading New Planner System

Hard Week

I can't write about how hard the past week has been. I'm grateful we got our power back after about two days. To my knowledge, no lives were lost in Typhoon Sinlaku. But mentally it has been an unmedicated, jagged hellscapes of rigid prongs of anxiety digging into my body, and my will to live … Continue reading Hard Week

Full Blown Cold or Something

I have headaches, congestion, a cough, a fever etc. This has been a long day. So was yesterday. Today though I missed a dr appointment and I've been sleeping most of the day. This virus or whatever is knocking me on my butt. Luckily I cooked a 4 cheese macaroni before I got really sick, … Continue reading Full Blown Cold or Something
