I used to be in the tradwife space on Instagram, but now I am working on short videos about my life as a Catholic with a creative calling. (I am seeking the best platform for what I make). On one hand I hate doing it because the truth is, I don't love being on camera, … Continue reading I Wouldn’t Monetize Being a Trad Wife

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
Instagram, Studio Life
I reinstated my writing Instagram, but not my trad account. I missed my small community on the writing account. And a record of the last decade of my life. I've been on it a lot less though. So the other night my husband took me by surprise. I can't remember exactly what we were talking … Continue reading Instagram, Studio Life
I Deleted my Writing/Personal Instagram
Last night I deleted my longest standing Instagram account. I have had it for at least 10 years. It was a record of my life. I decided I don't want to share my life on Instagram anymore. I kept my art account, as well as the account where I network dogs. But my days of … Continue reading I Deleted my Writing/Personal Instagram
YouTube Channel Plans
Right now my little YouTube channel has 44 subs or so. I think part of my problem is that I don't have a niche. I talk about book reviews and religion and homemaking and I tell funny stuff, and bible journaling and do camera unboxings. That might just be too much. People who are interested … Continue reading YouTube Channel Plans
I Have Magazines!
There are so many kinds of magazines for different interests. Reading interesting magazines and looking at the fascinating photographs makes me feel more alive and in touch with myself. I might have downloaded two magazine apps today and gone a little crazy buying issues. Last night I didn't get to sleep until past 3 am. … Continue reading I Have Magazines!
Religious Life – a New Order
I've written before about how I long for an organization or order of lay Catholics who are creatives. I feel a tug at my heart to build a website and start something. I've been longing for some form of religious life that allows for the integration of poetry, art, composing, choreography, etc to God's honor … Continue reading Religious Life – a New Order
Personal Curriculum Plans
It is midway through June and I still don't have my summer curriculum set up, so the one I create might bleed into the fall. 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
Bible Journaling, Giant Cookie, Catechism
This morning I have been Bible journaling in the book of Daniel. Daniel had so much faith. I need faith like that, to count on God. It felt good to get my purple Bible journaling bag out and use my scented highlighters and all my other gorgeous supplies. I want to do more Bible journaling … Continue reading Bible Journaling, Giant Cookie, Catechism
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
