Outside My Window
I am thinking…
I am just sick. Literally and emotionally. I have a summer cold with a nasty cough. For some reason, my body will hold onto a cough for weeks longer than anyone else’s. My poor husband hasn’t been able to sleep in our bed for most of the week because I keep waking him up with my coughing fits. I’m really ready to be well again.
On top of that, my mind is just fatigued from reading more and more about this. I fully realize, this is going to get worse, much worse, before it is over.
I am thankful…
that as of yesterday, my parish has started praying the prayer to St. Michael after mass.
I am pondering…
ways to become a better prayer warrior myself. In the light of St. Monica’s feast day, I went back to listen to Michael Voris’s confession from a few years ago and am inspired by the power of his mother’s prayers for him.
One of my Favorite Things…
I am hearing…
The air conditioner. We are having a late August heat wave here.
In the kitchen…
I am wearing…
My Firestone Booster shirt and long shorts.
I am going…
- Walking, exercising, weight lifting and ab work as much as possible. I plan to hit 3 miles tonight by arriving early and getting a mile in before the team starts practice!
- PrayMoreNovenas.com.
- to cut my carbs via the Wheat Belly Total Health: The Ultimate Grain-Free Health and Weight-Loss Life Plan recommendations and Intermittent Fasting.
- Actually get some flute practice in this week.
- Cut up 6 feet of electrical wire for my first science class this week.
- Give my editor more information for my book proposal.
- Start writing a reflection for another book I signed a contract for.
- I had to take one more wedding for the year. I need to contact that bride.
- Catch up on the VIRTUS articles I haven’t read yet.
- Implement some of the things I learned in the webinar.
- I will be listening to lectures from the 2018 Homeschool Mom’s Conference – with a particular interest in the Work From Home Track. I’m also taking a new affiliate marketing course from Pajama Affiliates and auditing a teacher’s writing class.

Algebra 1 starts Saturday with Noah.
I am also preparing for this online course for 10 weeks this fall. Ana is uniquely qualified to teach this course. She lived in Jerusalem for 5 years. She studied at the Hebrew University for two years and graduated from the Isreal College of the Bible with a Bachelors of Arts in Bible and Judaic Studies.
The course covers
– The Alef-Bet (Hebrew alphabet)
– Numbers – Colors – Shapes – Greetings – Basic vocabulary – Biblical vocabulary – Hebrew songs In only 10 weeks students will be able to read, write and speak Hebrew for beginners and have basic conversations. |
I am going to be having Miss C. five days a week this fall to homeschool along with Rosie. I really want us to get more into a Bravewriter Lifestyle, particularly movie day and tea time! I found a lovely tea set for me and Rosie to use and I want to find a few more cups for Miss C. (just in case she accidentally breaks one.)
Rosie has become a prolific writer by following a Bravewriter philosophy and I want to pass that on to Miss C who also writes prolifically, although only she knows what she is writing!
