In my previous post I mentioned that I’ve outgrown this blog. It’s tying me down, and I honestly don’t even recognize the person from most of the posts anymore. I have started a new blog. It’s just the beginning. I want to invite you guys, whoever may be left, to get to know me for … Continue reading

New Things
I’ve outgrown this. This place I needed to keep separate from the world. I’m too old for it. As my children grow and I come into who I am as an actual adult, I realize that my field of fucks given is growing more barren by the year. I am not a person with a … Continue reading
What is Faithfulness anyways?
Have I told you that I am schooling my children? Yeah. I’m homeschooling my eldest son and starting formally with my daughter this coming year. I, the one who used to shake her head and giggle and at the very thought of teaching her children math, has a son whose favorite subject is math. Joke’s … Continue reading
A God of Great Concern
What if the way we decided to approach God started with the idea not that we are evil sinners deserving of death, but instead that God is a god of great concern. What if we have been looking at this all wrong? The religion I grew up with almost always began with the Romans Road. … Continue reading
Pandemic High
Today I realized I haven’t really written about the pandemic. How odd. I suppose I haven’t had much time. Some people, I’m told, have taken up hobbies, worked out, read tons of books, learned a language, not me. I’ve taken up educating and entertaining my children 72-80 hours a week. I’m tired. But today, for … Continue reading
Twisted Christianity: Lil Nas X, Satan shoes, and church hurt.
Each church body is just looking for a sin which they don’t feel guilty of so they can be superior, as if God is a bear and we must simply outrun our comrades to escape being consumed in the flames of Hell that inhabit the mouth of God. Continue reading
Dear Hannah,

Name a free woman that you know, what you could learn from her? My forehead wrinkles, my eyes look left and right and up, as if looking around my empty room will manifest a free woman in my life from whom I can learn. I don’t know any. I know women who are standing on … Continue reading
An open letter to the Democratic Party: We’re through.
We have no loyalty to you. We consider ourselves part of your rank only as far as it serves us. It no longer serves us. You have acquiesced to our goals, you have molded yourself to our demands, and changed your foundation to match ours, but it isn’t enough. It’s not even close to enough. … Continue reading
Freedom to Fail
My son is sitting across from me doing Math-U-See. Doing this for a month and a half very very sporadically and never forcing him to keep going after his interest wanes, we’ve accomplished 88 pages of work that’s 20% of the total coursework for math for his kindergarten year. Currently he is crossing out the … Continue reading
