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

Quick Update
Today I got to talk to my mom on FaceTime, which was lovely. But my mood sank as soon as I got off the line. Today I didn't get much done. I worked on a soft pastel painting, but it was strange. My arms got so tired I had to lay down...from soft pastel painting. … Continue reading Quick Update
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
New Color Project?
I'm excited. I've been planning a new project about color that I'm going to post on one of my other blogs. It currently houses some paintings and photos. I don't think I'll take those down, but I want to write short and spiritual nonfiction or prose poetry (and free verse) about each color, and in … Continue reading New Color Project?
Adrenal
I went to the cardiologist this week. He gave me beta blockers and is going to give my heart a chemically induced stress test. But he thinks the problem is an adrenal gland tumor, so I have to do a twenty four hour urine test too. If it is a tumor, I will have to … Continue reading Adrenal
Inlaws Are Here
My inlaws are here. Day 2. I haven't been at my best, or really been the best hostess. I'm antisocial, moody, and tired. I'm stressed out. Why can't I relax? Having C home for the week is nice. I wish it were time with him with just the immediate family. But I'm glad he's getting … Continue reading Inlaws Are Here
Next Semester
I want to design another personal curriculum for this semester for Stay at Home University, or SAHU as I sometimes call it. I want to continue my unit on horror, delving into short stories and maybe even a novel or two. For the past several months, I have been devouring books on the art of … Continue reading Next Semester
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
Curvy, Sexy, Comfy
Resurrecting an old post from several years ago. Today I got an email concerning an old website I used to run in 2016 that is now offline. In it I talk about body positivity, sexiness, and comfort. I didn't want to lose it, so I have pasted it below. So I tried on some gorgeous … Continue reading Curvy, Sexy, Comfy
