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

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
Books Galore
Our kitchen stuff has arrived! We'll unpack this weekend. Happy 4th! Molly is settling in well. We hope to see the fireworks from our house. We'll see if that's possible. Yesterday I spent more than an hour on Kindle choosing book samples to download. I must have downloaded at least 30! Some samples I have … Continue reading Books Galore
Prayer
I don't know about you, dear reader, but I need a better prayer life. We often think of praying as something you do alone, down on your knees or lying in bed. But if you only pray when you're in one of those two positions, you will not pray enough. After all, life is busy. … Continue reading Prayer

The water, the history, the rocky granite landscape that formed me down to my bones - it's nice to be back at the source even if I prefer Colorado or Florida. We got here last Sunday, … Continue reading Enjoying New England
Bible Journaling Life
Bible journaling is life changing. I've never felt closer to God or more engrossed in His word. I'm having a hard time doing other things because I just want to be in my Bible! I'm making washi tape tabs and using highlighters more than I ever have in my life! I have clear tip highlighters … Continue reading Bible Journaling Life
Bible Journaling
I have finally done a couple of simple Bible journaling pages with highlighter, gel pen, watercolor, and pictures of flowers. I covered a page about blood sacrifice in red. I started in Deuteronomy because it isn't exactly my favorite book of the Bible, so I'm less worried about messing up. I also think it might … Continue reading Bible Journaling
Using Youtube to Live a Better Life
I've been making videos and trying to figure out what I want my channel to be when I have so many passions. One idea forming slowly in my mind is that I should have the channel be about faith and the creative life. There's not enough creativity in the church right now, and too few … Continue reading Using Youtube to Live a Better Life
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. I think I sound nervous in the videos), but I will soon. I might make some simple bread … Continue reading I Have Started a Youtube Channel!
