This has been a wonderful evening of writing. I've produced several poems. Of course, they all need various levels of revision. But some have potential! I've been reading and writing since I got home from lunch. We went to Mission BBQ today for Veterans Day. I'm so grateful to all who serve. The table for … Continue reading Writing

Wonderful Day With my Man
Today the girls had school but my husband didn't have work, so he and I spent the day together. We took a lovely two hour drive and went to a Mexican restaurant I love. We chatted nonstop for 6 hours. It was glorious! We talked a lot about the future and upcoming changes for the … Continue reading Wonderful Day With my Man
Starting November
October was a hard month. Very. The beginning of November hasn't been easy either. But I want to count my blessings. I have a case manager now. I hope it will be helpful. I got back issues of Artful Blogging. There is so much inspiration to be found in that magazine! Rainbows. Enough said. The … Continue reading Starting November
New Church
We ended up trying a new church this morning because our church was shut for the Fall retreat we didn't go on. We went to a church far away, because it was the denomination we wanted, which is hard to find. When I tell you this church was wonderful, it lacked nothing. The service was … Continue reading New Church
On the Mend
I was physically and mentally not feeling well last week. Then my inlaws arrived last Thursday. So between physical illness, Bipolar, and my inlaws coming to visit, I have been too wrapped up to write here. It has been a very hard week. This weekend I am doing better physically. I went to church and … Continue reading On the Mend

Today we went into the city to go to an art museum dedicated to what is traditionally seen as craft or woman's work. It was fascinating! There were some really deep, beautiful things there, and I got some nice photos. We went out to lunch after the museum, then went back to town and grabbed … Continue reading Lovely Day
Dogs, Church, Park
I'm sad this evening because my husband determined that we are not in a position to foster a dog. He thinks I will try to keep every dog we bring home. We are renters and we move a lot, and he is concerned that we won't find a rental when we move again. I feel … Continue reading Dogs, Church, Park
She’s here!
Our exchange student, L, arrived Tuesday night. She's so sweet. She brought us a beautiful photography book about Spain, among other gifts. It's gorgeous. Yesterday we took her into the city. I hope she had fun! She seems to be bonding well with A. Today we took her up to the high school to get … Continue reading She’s here!
Weekend
I am so excited about this weekend! My friend L, my daughter A, and I will be hanging out! We are getting a hotel room. We'll be going to the pool and out to eat and maybe shopping. L is A's godmother, which is why she's coming along. A loves L. That and the fact … Continue reading Weekend
Break, Etsy
I've been lying low the past couple of days and just trying to feel better. I haven't been on social media much. I've been sleeping a lot. I still got dinner on the table, but I laid down a lot on Thursday and Friday. I have been enjoying family time as well. My husband is … Continue reading Break, Etsy
