I will start blogging more regularly again soon. My husband was away last week and I struggled. Physically and mentally worn. We are going to a favorite vacation spot for Christmas! I'm looking forward to that. My elbow hurts a lot. I tried tonight to wipe down the refrigerator, and just lifting the bottle of … Continue reading Updates

A Down Day
Today I attended a mom's meetup. It was fun, especially as it called for bringing some of my gorgeous sticker collection. But I left early and didn't feel good the rest of the day. I slept half the afternoon. Now I'm watching The Ritual with my family. I feel like hiding.
Quick Update
Today I got to talk to my mom on FaceTime, which was lovely. But my mood sank as soon as I got off the line. Today I didn't get much done. I worked on a soft pastel painting, but it was strange. My arms got so tired I had to lay down...from soft pastel painting. … Continue reading Quick Update
Spewing
We just dropped my inlaws off at the airport. On the way home I got sick and threw up all over myself and the car. Now I'm resting on the sofa not feeling well. I'd like to sleep, but it's just a few hours til bedtime (and my hair is soaked from needing to shower) … Continue reading Spewing
Exhausted
My inlaws have been here a week. I hope they've had a good time. I love my inlaws, but honestly one week of having guests has been a lot. Stressful. Today I just wanted to hide in the art room to read and collage awhile. I wasn't feeling social. It was nothing personal. But my … Continue reading Exhausted
Inlaws Are Here
My inlaws are here. Day 2. I haven't been at my best, or really been the best hostess. I'm antisocial, moody, and tired. I'm stressed out. Why can't I relax? Having C home for the week is nice. I wish it were time with him with just the immediate family. But I'm glad he's getting … Continue reading Inlaws Are Here
Family Visiting
My inlaws are arriving for a visit this afternoon. They'll be here a week. Hopefully it doesn't rain the whole time. It's pouring today. They're staying someplace else. I wouldn't have minded if they stayed with us, but it would be pretty cramped because we don't have a guest room in this house. Well, we … Continue reading Family Visiting
Long Nap, Ash
Earlier I made dinner and ran two loads of laundry and painted two paintings. Then I fell into bed and slept for 2 hours. I don't know what came over me. Exhaustion just caught up. Now I'm up and feeling refreshed. Saturday's date night was great. Backrooms was unsettling and I liked it. I tried … Continue reading Long Nap, Ash
Quiet Week
A few pictures This has been a week of rest. I was supposed to make art with my friend J on Friday, but she had to cancel. I talked to my mom on FaceTime instead. Honestly I can't remember much of this week. I was very unwell.
Long Weekend
C has a four day weekend from Saturday to Tuesday, and A has it from Friday to Monday (today). This weekend we ate out by the water. Today we went to my favorite restaurant. Overall this has been a weekend of good food, running errands, and making collages. Soon I'll do a post on what … Continue reading Long Weekend
