Updates

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

I Wouldn’t Monetize Being a Trad Wife

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

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
