We were supposed to be welcomed as members into our church today, but I vomited on the way. We were maybe 10 minutes from church when I started spewing and eventually couldn't swallow it down. I feel so bad. They were prepared to welcome us. Since then I have been resting. My dear husband made … Continue reading Church, Snow

Doom Scrolling/Food
I've decided my social media habits need a major overhaul. Scrolling distracts me from housework. It also distracts me from reading books, which are much better for my mind than posts and memes. I don't want to get rid of my Facebook or Instagram. They're great for connecting with people, and one of my Instagrams … Continue reading Doom Scrolling/Food
Education
Beginning in January, I will be getting feedback on the book I wrote this year, as well as some other projects I've been working on. I'm looking forward to the mentorship. What I want is to get my poems to a point where I feel they're ready to be in a book. Whether or not … Continue reading Education
Great Start to the Break
C took me out to lunch today while A went on a playdate to a classmate's house. It's always nice to get out of the house just the two of us. We had invited L to go with us, but she had homework and things she wanted to do. So we lucked into a date. … Continue reading Great Start to the Break
As a Wife, It Is Your Responsibility to Sexually Satisfy Your Husband
As long as he isn't asking you to sin, you have a responsibility to keep your husband sexually fulfilled. He kills the bugs (or gently lets them outside). He pays the bills. He takes care of your needs. So take care of his. Most men need sex. Once married, he's only supposed to go to … Continue reading As a Wife, It Is Your Responsibility to Sexually Satisfy Your Husband
Aging
The other day, I wrote a stream of consciousness poem that revealed to me that I need to handle aging with more grace and a greater sense of hope. It was absolutely bleak. On Friday, a kind older gentleman stopped by the house to deliver something I'd bought from him. We ended up chatting, and … Continue reading Aging
The Creative Calling and the Trad Wife
Being a traditional wife, or trad wife, can be open a world of creative opportunity. My number one goal is to be a good wife and a good mother, but I also have a creative calling. I'm a poet who dabbles in nonfiction, short horror, and short science fiction. However, though literature was my mind's … Continue reading The Creative Calling and the Trad Wife
Nice Day
Today A had a birthday party to go to. We drove her 40 minutes there, and then C and I went out to lunch just the two of us. Our sweet exchange student L had chosen to stay home, so C and I got to go on a date. When we got home, C went … Continue reading Nice Day
I’m a Victorian Housewife
Trad wives are often compared to 50s housewives. That somewhat applies to me. I am very traditional. I wear dresses every day. As much as possible I wear jewelry to clean the house as well. I put my family first. I stayed home with my daughter before she started school. I am still at home … Continue reading I’m a Victorian Housewife
The Tiktok Outrage is Pathetic
40 year old women doing stupid dance routines. Book recommendations for books that have already been read by anyone even vaguely interested in them. Life coaches who live in their mom's basement promising you a life of success if you just listen to them (and pay handsomely). What do all these moronic things/people have in … Continue reading The Tiktok Outrage is Pathetic
