I discovered a website where the seminary program in Media and Worship Arts that I've longed to go to for years lists their syllabi. I am going from class to class, finding the required reading, and adding it to my Amazon. So much fascinating material on the intersection of Christianity and creativity! Reading these books … Continue reading Seminary Reading

Submission Brings Blessings
Submitting to your husband isn't always easy, but living the way God designed brings blessings. Although my husband and I have a lot in common, we still do not agree on everything. There have been calls he made that I did not think were best. But in these situations, blessings have always come from following … Continue reading Submission Brings Blessings
Staying Silent While My Husband Speaks for Me
I love it when I don't have to give my order to the server because he speaks up for me. I love it when I am in social situations (and getting tired or stressed), and he puts his arm around me and takes over the conversation. When I need to say no (something that in … Continue reading Staying Silent While My Husband Speaks for Me
Photos
I took these photos the other day. This is my world. I am not happy today. It's a hard day. I have the shower curtain in the washing machine. I made lunch but got too depressed to finish it, which is probably good. I have a bunch of housework I need to do, and very … Continue reading Photos
Beautiful Day

It’s a Beautiful Life

Digital Art Journaling
I have been trying to create digital art journaling pages for therapeutic purposes. They are a blend of scrapbooking supplies, collage cut outs I've made, digital stickers, and textures added in Procreate. I am doing everything I can to get myself on an upswing. Nothing fancy or professional, but making them is helpful.
Busy Day Planned
Tomorrow is the first day back to the grind after having my family home for a four day weekend. I've been really unwell the past couple of weeks, and there is much I need to catch up on. So here's a partial list of things I have to do tomorrow. Organize the master bedroom Mop … Continue reading Busy Day Planned
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
