You've got this, Mama!
These last two weeks I’ve been blogging more, but other than that, I’ve been doing a whole lot of nothing. I’ve been watching through Survivor, which has been a lot of fun, but I’ve not really DONE a lot. But something about the quarantine really really hit me today. We […]
So how was your first week in quarantine – assuming that you have hunkered down already? Homeschooling? Do you have kids who are now schooling from home? For those of us who homeschool, this is still crazy! (1) We miss our social situations just like people who send their kids […]

I’ve been hit hard by the flu this year. During the last two weeks where I was mostly down, I had plenty of time to think about this year’s bout with the flu and the lessons that I’ve learned from it which have made me better prepared to deal with […]
First off, if you’ve been here for any length of time, you know I am NOT an alarmist. I want you to read this article in that vein. I am NOT trying to scare people. Instead, I want people to be informed and make appropriate decisions. Don’t worry about this […]
We have some fun family traditions. Among these are a New Year’s Eve feast of steak and mushrooms for the entire family. The idea behind it is that we thank the Lord for the blessings of this last year and look forward to God’s goodness in the coming year. Another […]
