Museum, Glasses, Help

We've been busy today. We met L, our exchange student's, cousins in the city for lunch. Then we went to a science museum. Now we're back at home resting. L is still in the city with her cousins. I've posted 3 Youtube videos. I'm still finding my voice, and I haven't shown my face. But … Continue reading Museum, Glasses, Help

I Have Started a Youtube Channel!

My first video 2nd video I don't have any videos about submission or marriage yet, but I have two videos of reviews of artistic books. I haven't gotten brave enough to show my face yet (feeling shy.

The Creative Calling and the Trad Wife

Being a traditional wife, or trad wife, can be open a world of creative opportunity. My number one goal is to be a good wife and a good mother, but I also have a creative calling. I'm a poet who dabbles in nonfiction, short horror, and short science fiction. However, though literature was my mind's … Continue reading The Creative Calling and the Trad Wife

Classes I’m Taking

I'm so happy! I found a course to listen to online about art therapy. I found another on pressed flowers and floral art. Then I found one on honing your photography style and another on abnormal psychology that will pair nicely with the art therapy class. One day, if I enjoy it, I might get … Continue reading Classes I’m Taking
