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

Double Sleepover
Last night, Angelica was invited to a sleepover at her friend S's house. Tonight, she was invited to stay again, so we picked her up just long enough to take her to her appointment and then we brought her back. Hopefully she's having a lot of fun. C and I are. We went to the … Continue reading Double Sleepover
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
Date Day
Today C and I spent the day together. We dropped A off for her first day of 7th grade. Then we ran errands and got lunch at Olive Garden. C took me to the film store, but the only rolls they had left were around 60 dollars. That's more than I wanted to spend, so … Continue reading Date Day
Father’s Day, Monday
The first of C's Father's Day gifts arrived! It's a lego set where you build a gumball machine. I hope he loves it. He's already starting to build it. His second lego kit is supposed to arrive on Thursday, the day my inlaws go home. I love to see him happy. I try not to … Continue reading Father’s Day, Monday
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
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
Busy Week
I have a purple cast on. Last week I went to the orthopedic doctor and he said to wear a cast for 3 weeks to see if it helps with my ankle pain. If it does, I may be forced to wear some clunky ankle brace and weird shoes, or have my ankle fused or … Continue reading Busy Week
Welcome to My Refinished Space
I'm in my soft era. I want to write about my creative endeavors, marriage, motherhood, and Catholic faith. Of course I'll still write about submission, and also the Bipolar Disorder I struggle with. This is an honest diary. But I don't want as much acerbic content here as I have had in the past. I … Continue reading Welcome to My Refinished Space
I Deleted My Trad Instagram
I have come to realize that while many of my male followers are good fathers and husbands, or hope to be one day, some truly despise women. They take the beauty of submission- a gift a woman gives her husband - and twist it into something dark and abusive. I don't want a woman suffering … Continue reading I Deleted My Trad Instagram
