 I am a Catholic SAHM to two kids and three babies in Heaven. I like to write about Catholicism, homemaking, being a Mom, living with three mental disorders, and the like. (more?)

One of the under-developed themes of my blog is the issue of modesty. Pre-conversion I can say that I dressed pretty floozy like, and had no problems “dressing for attention”. Since my conversion, marriage, and birth; I’ve reigned my dressing in to something considerably more modest than how I was dressing. Colleen Hammond’s [...] Once upon a time, I had a good friend. I was friends with this person for quite some time, then things went totally south. Naturally, this hurt. At the same time I was beginning my conversion to Catholicism, they were also converting to an anti-Catholic religion. I’m sure you can understand the friction that [...] One of the things I want to work on is my lack of discipline, motivation, perseverance, fortitude – that moving forward when things are hot and sticky outside and all you really want to do is lie somewhere with a book and a cold glass of water. And let Elise splash in her pool. [...] A little late, but here’s my Hearts for Home list for this week: In today’s busy and aggressive society mothers at home are not given much encouragement to be committed to their role in being home. In my weekly ‘Hearts for Home’ post I am encouraging myself and others to commit to thinking about [...] In the last 10 months I have not slept more than 4 hours at a time (well, maybe that one time before her 4 month check up she slept 6 hours, but still). I have never been as worried as I was when she had jaundiced/didn’t pee/started gagging on avocado/started standing and falling down. [...] Our TV is still broke. We talked this week about what to do with it. We originally were going to try and fix it, and just end up using it again. However. We took stock of our situation. We have a TV in our room that we never watch, mainly due to Elise [...] As you may (or may not) know, I’m a total “Sheeniac”. I guess one would say that I have a (big) devotion to the good Archbishop. I think I’ll forego mentioning my special connection with him – unless someone out there is interested. Anyways. This CD is reflections by Archbishop Sheen on [...] The TV broke a couple days ago. I noticed that it would turn on and randomly shut itself off a couple weeks ago, now it’s totally toast. We need to take it into the TV repairman and see how much it will be to get fix and see if it’s worth it. At any [...] Yesterday I mentioned that everyone’s routine got messed up. Poor Elise has been getting rocked by solid foods (in a not good way), resulting in us giving her a LOT of prune juice. Greg was having issues with his shunt hurting him and could only work half a day of work. There’s stuff I’m [...] My goals for this week: 1) Get everyone’s routine back on track. In the last 24 hours life kind of went haywire and now I’m trying to figure it all out. 2) Not use the Internet as “filler” when E-bears is napping. 3) Find various ways to help Elise with her separation [...] |
