We went to the same church as last week today. The pastor preached boldly from scripture about wives submitting to their husbands and husbands loving their wives sacrificially. It makes me excited to go back. I emailed about getting involved with some volunteering. This weekend was lovely. We took care of errands together, but more … Continue reading Lovely Weekend, Lovely Week

Trying to Recover Me
Tuesday and Wednesday I volunteered at the dog shelter. A dog I fell in love with the first day was adopted the second day, which made me happy. I came home exhausted, strangely exhausted, but with the satisfaction of making living, loving little animals' day better. Today I am running on little sleep and have … Continue reading Trying to Recover Me
Headed to Our New Home
On the plane about to go to our new home. Hawaii has been lovely. Last night, we went to the Polynesian Cultural Center. The show was wonderful and the villages were great. Now I have a 7 hour flight. My anxiety is high, and I hope it doesn't get the better of me. I have … Continue reading Headed to Our New Home
Moving Week
This is day 3 with the movers here. Tomorrow is the last day, then we have a party to go to and then a final cleaning. Once that's done, we fly to Hawaii. From Hawaii, after we spend a few days there, we fly on to our new home. I'm not doing the move out … Continue reading Moving Week
Busy Day
I got up at 5 to drive to another city to drop the car off for shipping. It didn't take that long to get there, but driving on the highway makes me nervous, and if I'd left at the appropriate time, I would have hit traffic. So I left while it was dark. Since I … Continue reading Busy Day
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
Tea, Digital Art, New Dish
Tomorrow, Mother's Day weekend begins. A is having a Mother's Day tea at her school tomorrow. I'm nervous. Today, I've been sick, and my mood has been changing. I'm very exhausted. But I don't want to miss the tea, so I will be going (unless she's sick in the morning). Speaking of feeling bad, A … Continue reading Tea, Digital Art, New Dish
Sweet 16
L is 16 today! We got her a beautiful cake and a gift card to a makeup store. Tonight we'll take her out to dinner. Easter yesterday was lovely. We went to church and stayed for lunch with the congregation after the service. After dark, we went out in the yard and played with the … Continue reading Sweet 16
What I Like and Dislike About Therapy
Today, I saw a really arrogant post from a therapist telling other therapists that they can charge two hundred and fifty dollars an hour, and she was offering guides on how to make that much or more. People, firefighters, who will run into a burning building for you, don't make $250 an hour. You listen … Continue reading What I Like and Dislike About Therapy
Back
Our trip is over. We were supposed to fly home last night, but our flight was canceled. So we went from having a direct flight at a reasonable time to getting up at 3:45 and getting stuck in a long layover. But all that matters is we're home safely now. I'm eager to get back … Continue reading Back
