My husband left for a conference in Europe yesterday morning. My father in law is kindly staying with my daughter and I. We went out to the art store, and I bought this rolling cart. My FIL assembled it for me. Tools and building things just aren't in my feminine repertoire. The purpose is to … Continue reading A Little Organization/Update

My Portable Life
I wrote about this on my Instagram, but I want to write more about it here. I have made a portable life. Scrapbooking, writing, art, reading, etc. can be done anywhere. I have to move, on average, every two years or so. Having things I love that can be done anywhere enables me to have … Continue reading My Portable Life
Interview
Today, I did a delightful interview with a German social science researcher about the trad wife movement, what brought me to it, how was I raised, etc. The researcher was very nice and friendly, and I'd be glad to help her in the future. She said something too that really stuck with me. I told … Continue reading Interview
Thankful for my Bible Study Girls
This morning I had Bible study. Two of the girls weren't there (one just had a baby), and we missed them, but we had a nice meeting with those of us left. I love and respect my Bible study girls so much. They range from stay at home moms to professionals. But all are dedicated … Continue reading Thankful for my Bible Study Girls
11 Years
Yesterday was my husband and I's eleven year wedding anniversary. We didn't have a babysitter booked, so we took our daughter out to lunch with us and then to go get ice cream. He got me a sweet, romantic gift that is being made as a gofund me. It will be ready in a couple … Continue reading 11 Years
Obey Your Husband Like You Obey God
Your husband is not God. He is a man. He is fallible. But God commands women to obey their husbands. That is not up for debate. There have been times when I have not agreed with my husband's decisions, but I supported them anyway. And each time that has happened, blessings have come my way … Continue reading Obey Your Husband Like You Obey God
My Job as Family Historian
All the ECT I have been doing is causing memory loss. This is causing me to have a greater appreciation for memory keeping. Recently, I have gotten back into scrapbooking. I went supply shopping with my friend C on Thursday and with my daughter on Saturday. I'm the wife and mother of the house. Recording … Continue reading My Job as Family Historian
ECT is Killing Me
I started ECT the Monday before yesterday. I have to get up and out the door by 430 am. It takes them about an hour to give everyone an IV, put the electrode things on them, etc. Then they go one by one and zap us. The machine makes a weird, fast beeping sound when … Continue reading ECT is Killing Me
Husband, ECT, Friend
My husband is home again for a few weeks. It's so good to have him back! This week, I should find out whether I have been accepted for ECT. It could go either way. My ekg was great, but my blood work wasn't. I don't know how my chest x ray went. Tomorrow is the … Continue reading Husband, ECT, Friend
Trans Women Are Men
I made a post on Instagram saying that, and it got deleted as hate speech that incites violence. Evidently saying that having a dick precludes you from being a woman is hate speech now, and saying you won't play along is akin to violence. So I'll say it here. Trans women are men. And to … Continue reading Trans Women Are Men
